Excellent service. David did an excellent job repairing my Dell Latitude and my SONY VPCZ series. He was able to source a replacement hard drive even though the model I needed was long out of production. Other laptop repair services couldn't even bother looking for a hard drive like that. Both laptops are now in mint condition and works perfectly. I would go back there again any time.

They helped me with a charger, when I somehow still picked the wrong one I got to go back the next day and pick out the good one without any extra charge even though it was more expensive
Came to print boarding passes, was fast and easy, less than 2 pounds. Open Sunday evening!

I recently started my own business and was completely frustrated (and discouraged) by all the IT related items I needed to implement. It was not area of expertise and all I wanted was for it to work and be simple enough for me to understand. Scootek came to my rescue! Now I have a fully functioning office and someone to turn to whenever I run into an issue (large or small). I would recommend Scootek to anyone.
We are a small architects practice. We choose Scootek to support our business critical computers and, frankly, they have been amazing for us. It is like having my own IT Department without the cost - We pay less than £25.00 per computer per month and this gives me an IT Department to call upon whenever we are having problems. I have phoned the support desk a couple of times over IT issues I have always had the problem solved quickly and efficiently. This is the kind of support is essential and comforting for small businesses like us. We are happy to recommend Scootek to anyone thinking of employing their services.

The staff at Focus PC were really nice. They were extremely helpful and friendly when I unexpectedly turned up with my computer; they were able to solve my problem immediately.
Don't be wary about no reviews...nice people and will sort you out for a fair price, unlike a lot of the other companies who charge £50 just to look at it.

Super service, very highly recommended. Martin and his team work extremely hard and provide a first class service whilst always being mindful of the client's budget.
Software and Hardware from Amazon. It has to be said that, as always, Amazon is quite extraordinarily comprehensive and saves shopping in the rain, but the value of having a local supplier can in the long run be extremely helpful and cost effective.
