Customer's reviews

So pleased I found Vlad at Dr IT. I'd got myself into a panicked state as my laptop died on me, full of all the private files I used for work and couldn't afford to loose. I was very apprehensive of who to take my laptop to for data recovery because of this. But, Vlad completely understood and calmly explained my options with understanding, keeping me updated throughout the process and reassuring me of confidentiality and respecting my requests. He even provided me with extra online privacy and security tips and information. Of course, I hope this doesnt happen to me again anytime soon, I have learnt my lesson about back ups! But, I wont go to anyone else in the future and will be recommending him to all my colleagues and friends. Thank you, Vlad! ~ Amanda G
My 2013 lap top had reached a stage, where it would not charge, consequently, I had to go through the process of starting from scratch each morning after plugging into the mains. I contacted the manufacture, but they were unable to help, as my machine was older than 2015. Their authorised dealer couldn’t be bothered to answer the phone. I asked Google to help me and found a local firm, DR IT SERVICES. Vlad, the owner, said that he could fix the problem in a matter of hours. I took my lap top to him at lunch time yesterday and a few hours later, I collected it in full working order, with a brand new battery. WHAT BRILLIANT SERVICE! I would recommend anyone, particularly West of Birmingham to contact DR IT SERVICES, for your computer problems. David. ~ david m
Amazing speedy and professional service! The hinge on my laptop broke, after seeing the google reviews I decided to use Dr IT as he was available to look at my laptop immediately. He was able to quickly diagnosis what part would be needed, I took my laptop home so I could continue working from home and he texted me when the part had arrived. When the part had arrived I dropped the laptop just after 9am on a Saturday Morning and it was ready within an hour! Dr IT had social distancing markings and wore a mask so I felt very safe getting my laptop fixed at this time. I felt the price was very reasonable, especially considering he diagnosed and fixed my laptop outside of the usual 9-5. I highly recommend Dr IT and would 100% use his services again! ~ Katie P
