My iMac recently developed a fault. The first “port in a storm” was to contact Appel who diagnosed a hard drive malfunction, and recommended a replacement. An updated spec drive was subsequently installed, and the system now functions perfectly. Keith Cox gave a speedy, cost effective and efficient service. Without hesitation, I would recommend his business to other Mac users. iMac 21.5” replace faulty hard drive Alan, Little Wenlock, Shropshire

I had some major problems with the logic board of my MacBook Pro. Apple wanted more than the cost of a new one to fix the problem. Contacted Keith who sorted it all out, replaced the logic board, saved my data and was a great help and all at a more realistic price than Apple quoted. He also changed the screen on my ipod touch which I thought was impossible. Any Apple related problems then Keith should be the first person you contact. Repair MacBook Pro 15″, temp repair to logic and then replace… John, Loggerheads, Staffordshire

What impressed me most about you was your honesty regarding my enquiry to upgrade my 2008 iMac for gaming.

The friendly, efficient and professional service you provided regarding the upgrades to my Wife’s Macbook pro made us both assured future customers. I would without hesitation recommend your services to anyone who wants outstanding service regarding their Apple computers. Darren, Albrighton, Shropshire

Appel are simply the best. There are so many companies who boast of being Apple specialists and more than happy to charge a small fortune to simply look at your computer… Keith is honest about costs, professional and open about all / any options available. He offers advice for free and always does a great job. What else could you want! 13” MacBook Pro diagnosed & replaced faulty hD IR cable assembly Paul, Stafford, Staffs

Thanks Keith for the great assistance at very short notice to sort out my iMac that had frozen and was looking like it would have to spend 10 days waiting to be fixed by Apple (as it was under warranty). Your advice worked perfectly. Thank you lots for keeping it on the road. Computers are ‘business critical’ – especially for small businesses without replacement machines and IT depts – your assistance was a huge help John, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

Keith offers a great service – a reliable, knowledgeable and sensibly priced solution. MacBook replaced hard disk drive and attempted data recovery. George, Clun, Shropshire

Keith replaced the battery in my 2015 Mac Book Pro and had the whole job completed in less than 24 hours. From the first phone call, he was polite, kept me informed of what was happening and when I met him was a thoroughly good chap. The quality of the workmanship was superb. But you know what made the biggest impact? My Mac Book had lost three of the rubber feet from the bottom and when I got home and looked, Keith had replaced them! He didn’t charge me for it and he didn’t mention it. That al… Kyle, Telford

I have been coming to Keith for a number of years both for repairs on new macs and restoration of older ones that are too good friends to loose.
