Diagnosis comes first
Similar symptoms can have different causes, so a final price may require hands-on testing and exact model identification.

Computer Repair Customer Policies
Review True One Fix customer policies for estimates, approvals, data, passwords, parts, warranties, communication, payment, pickup and unclaimed devices.
Plain-language policy summary
Clear expectations protect the customer and the repair process
This page summarizes general True One Fix customer policies. It is intended to help customers prepare for service but does not replace the current Service Terms and Conditions, written estimate, invoice, warranty terms or specific authorization for a device.
Policies can change as shop procedures, providers and legal requirements change. The documents presented for the actual repair control that service.
Estimates and approval
Understand the work before it proceeds
Current pre-authorization terms
The signed check-in terms state whether work below a specified threshold is already authorized.
Separate approval when required
Applicable findings and the total price are sent for written or electronic approval when required by the current terms.
Material changes
A significant change in scope or estimated charge requires updated communication and authorization.
Declined service
If repair is declined, the device may be picked up without charge unless detailed diagnostic findings or failed-part information are requested verbally or in writing; that diagnostic-only service is $50. Separately approved parts, shipping, reassembly, or other charges may still apply.
Data, accounts and passwords
Customers should protect important information before service
Maintain a current backup
Hardware, storage and operating-system work carries data risk; no repair provider can guarantee data integrity.
Backup is not automatic
Optional readable-drive backup must be requested and is different from recovery of failing or inaccessible media.
Identify data priority
Tell us before testing when files are more important than restoring normal device operation.
Limit account access
Provide only access required for approved testing and use a temporary service account when practical.
Remove unrelated storage
Take out memory cards and external drives unless they are part of the reported problem.
Parts and repair scope
Part type, condition and warranty should be disclosed
Exact compatibility
Brand family names are not enough; model, specification, connector and construction must match.
Part source or condition
New, used, refurbished, compatible or manufacturer-sourced options may differ in availability and warranty.
No unsupported claims
A part is not described as genuine manufacturer equipment unless its source can be verified.
Customer-supplied parts
Compatibility, defects, missing hardware and warranty responsibility require separate review.
Special orders
Deposits, shipping, cancellation and return restrictions should be explained when applicable.
Warranty and limitations
Coverage depends on the repair and device condition
Labor coverage
The current Service Terms state the applicable workmanship warranty and exclusions.
Replacement-part coverage
Supplier, manufacturer or shop warranty can vary by part source and should be stated on the repair documentation.
Excluded damage
New impact, liquid, misuse, unauthorized modification and unrelated failures are not automatically covered.
Inspection required
A claimed warranty issue may require the device to be returned for verification before a remedy is determined.
Consumer rights
Nothing in a shop policy removes rights that cannot legally be waived or limited.
Communication and repair status
Keep contact information current
Status tracking
Use the secure repair information supplied at check-in to view the current stage.
Approval messages
Review estimate links carefully and contact the shop if the device, amount or requested decision is unclear.
SMS and email delivery
Notifications depend on accurate contact details, enabled services and external carrier or provider delivery.
Timely responses
Parts ordering and completion timing may pause while the repair waits for a customer decision.
Security
Do not forward secure approval or tracking links to unauthorized people.
Payment and pickup
Complete authorization and device return correctly
Authorized charges
Payment is due according to the current estimate, invoice, payment arrangement and Service Terms.
Pickup verification
Identity or authorization may be requested before a device is released.
Third-party pickup
Contact the shop in advance if another person will collect the device.
Inspect the return
Review the device, accessories and relevant repaired functions before leaving when practical.
Completion record
The pickup person, date and ticket status are documented in the repair system.
Unclaimed equipment
Respond to completion notices and arrange pickup promptly
Keep phone and email information current and collect the device within the period stated in the current Service Terms. Disclosed storage or handling procedures may apply after the applicable waiting period.
Any transfer, recycling, disposal or other treatment of unclaimed property must follow the notices, waiting periods and procedures required by the current terms and applicable law.
Courier and shipping
Do not ship a device without written authorization
Mail-in service requires current receiving instructions and confirmation that the device and battery condition are eligible. The sender should use suitable packaging, tracking, insurance and all applicable carrier rules.
Return method, charges, address, insurance and signature requirements are confirmed before dispatch.
