Brilliant as usual. What more can I say…. Any mac I have now and ones I get in the future will be fixed by Appel.. As a mer-cat ones said ‘simples’. 17″ refurbished Mac supplied.

Keith came highly recommended for Apple repair by my brother. Although my repair was a little more serious and my Apple Mac had to be sent to the States for diagnostics and repair the turnaround was excellent and I had my Mac back in just over a week. Keith kept me updated with progress and costs all the way. I can’t recommend Keith enough!!

“If you thinks its expensive hiring a professional, wait until you try an amateur!” Rings true with a couple of recent jobs: iMac 27” brought in after somebody offered the client a cheap HD replacement…. my cost to diagnose & fix was over £400 to replace the logic board that was shorted as a result of not working in a static protected environment. An iPad came in a few weeks ago, not working after having a new screen fitted at a pc repair shop locally. Having paid them for the repair that…

Many thanks Keith for excellent and fast service in diagnosing and repairing my iBook G4. Up and running again within the day. Tony, Wolverhampton, West Midlands

Upgrading an older Mac to El Capitan. Beware CPU hogging and over heating at first start up. It appears that Photos background activities coupled with Spotlight indexing are causing a lot of overheating and crashes on older Macs until both have completed initial set up. Try installing iStat Menus to run the fans faster and leave your Mac on for 24 hours after initial set up. As always, give me a call if you need help.

Appel provide an honest, personal, friendly service which the giants who make the machines just can’t match. A pleasure to deal with. Refurbished MacBook supplied and serviced. Stuart, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

Thanks to Appel for trying to save me money by finding a cheaper solution to my dead cinema screen.

I needed an urgent repair for a crashed hard drive on my church office computer. Keith replaced the hard drive, recovered all the data from the old drive and I had a perfectly working machine back, with intact files, in less than 24 hours. All this at a superb price.

I’ll use Keith every time now. 27″ iMac data recovery and transfer to new HD fitted Garry, Claverley, Shropshire

My MacBookPro was recently infected by a particularly nasty trojan virus and Keith did a great job for me in sorting out my laptop and rescuing files that had seemed to have disappeared into the ether.

Sincere thanks to Keith at Appel for saving the day – and my life. My portable hard drive had years of work on it. When it crashed, my life flashed before my eyes. You were so calm and helpful, I immediately felt better just discussing the problem with you. Then when you retrieved all my information from the broken hard drive and put it safely on a new one, the relief was immense ! I can not thank you enough for your incredible expertise at a very reasonable price. Fantastic service ! E… Carol, Priorslee, Telford, Shropshire
