I’ve used Appel a couple of times now and the service has been excellent. It’s nice to know that, although my Apple kit is a little old (G5 iMac and G4 powerbook), there is somebody local who you can trust and who will get things back up and running. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Appel to family and friends. First class service, keep up the good work. Repair iMac G5 20″ with new psu & hard disk. Mike, Telford, Shropshire

Very friendly and honest service with no charge for fault finding, I wont use anyone else! Oliver, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

15″ MacBook Pro Unibody i7 upgrade RAM & replace failing HD. Permanent errors on hard drive but managed to repair temporarily and recover all data. 2 x 4G RAM fitted, new drive & data recovery completed. NB we have software to test integrity of drives in more detail than Apple’s Disk Utility. Sometimes a pass in Disk Utility does not mean the disk is OK as experienced by this client. Symptoms are slow performance and poor data transfer speeds.

The hard drive in my recording studio iMac went bang midway through recording an album with potentially disastrous consequences. Keith at Appel came to the rescue quickly and provided a great service at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended! 21.5″ iMac recovered all data from faulty HD and installed new Matthew, Wolverhampton, West Midlands

20” iMac brought in with failed HD. Recovered part of the data but the majority is lost with NO backup. Installed new HD with OS & transferred little recovered data. Advised client the FileVault client is not accessible and only way to get data is send to laboratory for compete dismantling in a clean room. Cost around £500 and no guarantees. Ouch – have you backed up today?

Over several years, and at least 3 refurbished Macs books as well as a major repair on my pre-Intel desktop dinosaur, I have been very happy with Keith’s technical skill; dedication to trouble shooting; availability for managing all kinds of technical crises and his sense of humour. I’ll probably have to send computers to you from France, asI doubt I’ll be able to find anyone close to your ability there. Supplied MacBook Pro 13” refurbished Erica, London

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! Fu… Carol-Angela, Telford, Shropshire
