10 FAQs Is there any additional information I need to include in the service request or ask the customer? It's always good to ask as many questions as possible to get as much information from the customer when requesting a repair. Such as: Has this device been repaired before? Do you know if this phone has water damage? Besides the problem you have here, is their anything else wrong with the device? If the customer has any additional information, include it in the comment section of the service request. A customer asked about our repair warranty, how do I explain our warranty after they get a repair? Our warranty for all of our parts covers the customer for the full lifetime of the device as long as the part in question is not damaged or replaced from another repair company. If it is damaged or has been repaired elsewhere, a returning customer would be eligible for a discount but not for free repairs. If a customer has a phone that we don't have parts for, how do I go about ordering parts for them if they want to do a repair? The best thing to do is to call a technician to double check if he or she has the part in stock. Good communication with your technician is vital, as the inventory of parts can vary a great deal and thus, affect the timeframes we give our customers for a repair to be completed. If it s not in stock have the customer pay for the repair in full by creating a service request and then an invoice, which you will leave open under their account. Once this is done, notify technician that the customer has paid so he or she can order the part. 07/4/ P a g e

11 Normally, how long does it take to get parts for customers? Depending on the model, most iphone and some Samsung parts can arrive by next day delivery. The other models of devices will generally take 2-3 business days but can take upward of 3-5 business days. A customer comes back after a repair and something is not working properly, what should I do? Let the customer explain the situation, go to the customer s account and create a new service request detailing everything the customer has told you. Make sure that the phone that he/she has is the same device that was repair by comparing IMEI numbers from the previous service request. Confirm that they are eligible for Warranty Repair (see question #2). Finally notify your technician to verify the information and check part availability 07/4/ P a g e
