Testimonials

Being an international picture agency where our photographers batter around apple macs more than the average user, when things go wrong they always happen at the wrong time which usually results in us needing an instant repair doing – sometimes a matter of hours before we jet off to our next destination. We cannot recommend Keith Cox and Appel highly enough, not only does he drop everything he is doing, repairs are done in an instant and failing that, concise, excellent solutions are found. Inva… Matt from Shrewsbury

This is the second time I’ve used Appel’s services, due to a failed video chip on my MacBook. Both times Keith has been extremely helpful and gone the extra mile to assist me and ensure my issues are resolved. Thanks again Keith, you managed to turn a stressful situation into a manageable one and should anyone I know have any Apple related issues, I know where to point them. Thanks again. Edward, Telford

Your your help with my Apple iMac 20″ was invaluable. Thank goodness I was put in contact with you. My Mac now runs at high speed; it’s as if it is a brand new machine. Many thanks for your help, which was prompt and very reasonably priced. You provide an excellent service that I have no hesitation of recommending to others. Judd, Edgmond, Shropshire

Appel gives the sort of service one dreams of. When my old G5 Mac died on me on a Monday morning, a quick phone call to Keith and I was off to Telford to see if this boffin could fix it. He couldn’t – but he did rescue all my data and was incredibly helpful with all the discussion then to buy my fabulous new iMac. Brilliant service, and also really helpful after-care conversations. Can’t recommend him highly enough. New Intel iMac migrated data from failed iMac G5 and set up Time Machine backup.… Chloe, Ludlow, Shropshire
