I used one, I haven't used the other one yet. I didn't have any problem at all.
Description of Work: I used the "Big Deal" that I purchased for the services of Geek Choice. I was having trouble getting my computer to do what I wanted to do, and Yahoo was giving me all kinds of problem. He came out and corrected them. He also helped me with uploading pictures that I couldn't get my camera to do. In fact, I had a trouble sending an email after that and I called them on the phone and they fixed it over the phone.

The technician arrived at the agreed upon time. He seemed very knowledgeable and covered everything I had requested. He also provided some pointers on how to clear out cookies, etc., from my laptop. A little chatty, but otherwise very good.

My experience with them was wonderful. They're smart, good sense of humor, goal oriented, had it done, and sort of think of work around.
Description of Work: I used the Big Deal from Geek Choice because I used to be connected wirelessly in the internet and all of a sudden it wasn't working and they were able to figure out what's wrong and fixed it.

The technician who came was a very nice young man, but he didn't help me like I had hoped. I checked on the manual after he had gone, and saw that there were other things he could have tried, but the bottom line was that he was right, and I had to buy a new computer. He was prompt, courteous, he explained things, and when it turned out there wasn't much he could do, we had a pleasant chat. I didn't pay more as he didn't take more time than the time limit on the big deal. He couldn't get into the computer system, because I couldn't remember my password, but when I looked at the booklet later, it said there was a way he could have reset the password, so I am not sure if he knew that.
Description of Work: We used Geek Choice. We had purchased a big deal for the service. I had a computer that was very slow, and had a lot of things. He was able to clean it up a little bit, but his direct advise was to go and buy a new computer.

They said they fixed it, but it was working worse after they did it. He basically just sat there and he didn’t explain or say anything. When we asked him questions he was just really short with us. He had no desire to interact. He said that he installed something, but we have no idea what it was because he didn’t tell us. They also arrived about 2 hours late.
Description of Work: It was a Big Deal for $75 for One Hour of On-Site Computer Repair and Services. Our computer was very slow and it wasn’t working the way it should. It needed to be cleaned up. We had an HP laptop.

Michael was extremely knowledgeable, pleasant, informative and chatty. The modem turned out to be shot, so there actually was not too much that he could do on the first visit. He therefore offered a deep discount on a second visit, looked up and gave us a list of hardware to buy in preparation for that appointment. On the second visit he hooked it up, worked on the network, and very patiently explained things to my elderly -- and technologically very challenged -- father, for whom I had set up the appointment.

The tech Mike was great, very professional, nice, personable and informative. Obviously knows his stuff on a items besides what I was doing with him. He ran some diagnostics on my computer, recommended some other software, and memory upgrades. And I think he went over the one hour without any concern. I would recommend them in the future.
Description of Work: Bought a big deal on Angies List for basically a computer tune up and review.
