Title: iPad repair recommendations Post by: Im Reddy on Tuesday, August 27, 2013, 17:20:10 So I've dropped my iPad from a great height. Screen survived and it works fine, but want to get the back casing replaced. Google only brings up repairs via post which is a bit iffy; can anyone recommend a reliable company that does repairs? thanks

The glass just crazed, completely different to a car windscreen, nasty splinters all over the place so be warned. I sent mine back to HO and one of the IT bods replaced the screen, however if the casing is damaged then it's a pig of a repair as the new class won't always fit back!!! Good luck.

I fear that could be the dearest repair option. IIRC IT bod said screen was peanuts :( Title: Re: iPad repair recommendations Post by: Im Reddy on Tuesday, August 27, 2013, 21:07:20 Typical :(

A friend of mine used these and had no problems. I think there's also a place on Commercial Road, but I don't know what it's called. |
