Highly Disappointing Service and Misleading Information I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience with this business warrants one. I'm tech-savvy and capable of performing screen repairs myself. However, because my device is critical for my work, I opted to pay for a quick turnaround. This decision, unfortunately, led to significant frustration. Upon arriving Wednesday morning, I explicitly asked multiple times if the required screen was in stock and was repeatedly assured it was. This was the first of many misrepresentations. I also confirmed the repair timeframe, and each time I was told it would take 24 to 48 hours. When 48 hours passed without any communication, I became concerned. By Friday, I was irritated and drove to the Waxahachie location to check on my phone. To my surprise, no one seemed to have any information, only telling me the repair would take a week. This was completely unacceptable, especially given how essential smartphones are for daily life, work, and security. I again questioned if the screen was on hand, and this time I was told they had one reserved for me. Despite my growing frustration, they still had my phone and a $50 deposit, so I held onto a sliver of hope. When I was told again that it would take "a week or so," I stood my ground, reminding them of the initial promise that the screen was in stock. I was then told the initial misinformation was due to a "new guy" — an explanation I found irrelevant to my situation. It was clear at this point that I was not to be trifled with. I was then informed the screen was actually in Arlington, and someone would retrieve it to complete my repair. Predictably, this was another false promise. Finally, at noon on Saturday, I received a call that my phone was almost ready. Upon arrival, I was informed the total cost for this "circus" was $300. I could have easily performed this repair myself, saving a significant amount of money and avoiding this entire ordeal. I will absolutely never return to this business and will strongly advise others to steer clear. Note to Bo: Attempting to discredit this review, as you've done with others, would be futile. The experience was...
Read moreI have to agree with the other reviews that talk about the terrible customer service with this company. Tony, the manager, is horrible with customers, he is very condescending. I took the phone in and said what was going on with it to the girl at the counter, she then went into the back, came back and said she’d order a part. No one ever looked at my phone or checked to see if that was really what was wrong with it. Now it is my understanding she is not a tech. I stupidly paid, not knowing the store was corrupt. I went back in one hour later, telling her that is not what was wrong with the phone, she tells me there is no refund and I only get store credit or go ahead and replace the part. What??? Replace something not broke? I tell her I need to speak to the manager, hence Tony. He tells me the policy of no returns. I explain I understand if there was something physical I was trying to return or if he actually put a part in my phone, but up to this point NO ONE in that store had even touched my phone. I asked him what would have happened next week when I brought the phone back and he found out it was the wrong part. He actually said then we would diagnose it…and I am assuming charge me more money or just replace a good part and pretend it was bad. He then argued he ordered the part, I said then cancel it, it has been less than an hour. He said he can’t, there are hundreds of parts. WHAT? I know it hasn’t shipped because you guys told me it would be next week before it would come in. He still refused. I paid with a card, this would be a simple transaction to keep a customer happy. THEN he tried to tell me he would not credit back the full amount, he was keeping the tax! Omg, I had to inform him that was illegal. I don’t want store credit, I don’t want to come back to this store ever especially after dealing with Tony. I am pretty sure the no refund policy is because they screw up too much. William Kapsidelis since you are the owner of this store, you might want to get a hold of Tony, he seems to be causing some bad reviews. I did ask Tony to have you contact me and he refused. Good thing I found you on LinkedIn....

(Note: I'm having trouble uploading the photos of the battery I purchased and my receipt. I will check back later and see if it's just taking a while on Google's end.)
1 - my reciept 2 - the first battery they were supposed to put in my phone (notice the name on it) 3 - the OEM battery still inside the phone today
As you can see from the photo I visited CPR on 3/31/2018 and paid them $64.94 to replace the battery in my Nexus 6P. I had ordered a replacement battery and tool kit from Amazon with plans to do it myself but my schedule was too busy and I was a little hesitant to do the work.
Cody was courteous and got the work done in the time he said he would... or so I thought...
My phone continued to have battery issues. I figured I had received a bad battery from Amazon so I ordered another and another kit to do the work myself.
Imagine my surprise when, today, I opened the phone to find the OEM battery still inside. "Furious" does not even begin to describe where I am at on this.
I work out of town. My phone is my lifeline as a construction superintendent. The battery issues caused difficulties too numerous to list. Not to mention I had to take time out of my weekend with my family (which isn't every weekend) to do the work myself.
I don't live in Waxahachie, nor am I frequently near there... but rest assured, next time I am, I will be marching in their store and demanding a refund, compensation for both batteries (since the first was never installed and I had to buy a second), and compensation for my time doing it. Since they were going to charge me 64.94 to do the work it only seems fair I be compensated the same...
So let's see:
$64.94 - I was charged for work that was never done $64.94 - my labor to do the work they were supposed to do $14.60 - the first battery and tool kit which I left with them $34.36 - second OEM battery I bought, tools, and replacement glass $178.84 - what I figure I'm owed
I would be glad to have a discussion with the owner, and give a favorable review of this fiasco, after receiving the above...
