In small claims cases you always aim high.. because the judge is always going to knock it down... very rarely do people get the FULL amount they are asking for unless it's a renter vs landlord where back rent is owed or a case along those lines.. if it's a customer vs business the judge usually tries to find a balance that's fair to both parties.

TBH, all these issues can be resolved by utilising a booking system on your site. you can then allow people to book in repairs using a calander system and you can limit the volume of bookings that are available each day.. Thus you are left with a regular scheduled workload and you have the ability to work to scope as you are dealing with a managed work schedule. Just a thought.

And how many times when you think you found a solution and the problem comes back because the cause of the problem was originated by another faulty component. Doing repairs can be very stressful.

I went to small claims court once because a guy driving a company van hit my car in an accident. He apologized profusely at the scene because it was clearly his fault. Gave me all his details and comply details and said I must contact company and their insurance. So I submitted all my details to their insurance and a couple days go by they get back to me and say they’re declining to pay because apparently according to the driver I hit him. I was upset but I said f**k this and took his boss to small claims court. Told the story and owner didn’t even put up resistance, said he would pay but it was annoying as hell having to through the whole procedure. I hope the dishonest driver lost his job

If he paid for expedited service and received no indication you gave this (you didn't contact him within 8 days to say you'd looked and it was unfixable) the fact he had to chase it after 4 weeks gives every indication no expedited service was given. He was correct in refusing the 50% offer because of this. The rest is his problem if he didn't accept a full refund.

Tip for everyone bringing phones to repair anywhere "official" (brands or authorized repairs etc), always backup your stuff before (if you can) because chances are your device will be factory reset as a procedure to eliminate the possibility of it being a software problem, it's how it's done and even if it's something as simple as a screen replacement, a battery replacement, we are told to factory reset the phone, which in my opinion is a really bad practice because we use the secure boot menu to do it and this can lock the phone requiring the google or apple id of the previous user to unlock (in case of android or apple) and this sometimes can be a problems because many people use dummy accounts or someone elses email or have no acess to their email anymore etc etc, so be aware of your data when you send your phone for repair
@PanCakesAreFat
@PanCakesAreFat Жыл бұрын
Google, Apple and Samsung require the device to be factory reset for 2 reasons. Privacy of data and to ensure the issue isn't software based (i.e. 3rd party apps, corrupted updates). Privacy of data is a no brainer as no one wants their data in the hands of someone you don't know or never seen before. If you have to send the device off, they have lists or things you have to do and one of them the phone has to be wiped and unlocked before they will touch the device. No exceptions. Apple now requires you to sign out of the Apple account before wiping the phone. As with Samsung and Google. So you need to know your password to the account or the device is potentially bricked. Samsung and Apple have ways to bypass the Factory Reset Protection.

I never got sued. I think it has to do with your line of work. If you buy a 1000$ phone or a 3000$ computer and it breaks just after the warranty is over you are angry about it. Its absolutely unfair that they don’t last longer or get repaired for free. After all, the customer has no control over the hardware. So some take out their anger at you instead of suing Apple or Samsung. Its really a scam by those companies that they don’t stand behind their product.

I’ve been watching your videos for a little while, and I was quite amazed to find that you are doing kinda motivational videos apart from your usual material. You know, I was working in the retail for the last 7 years, and while there were many positive moments as well as I’ve learned some good skills over that period, still there was a huge amount of negative moments, especially over the warranty and returns. As I was watching this video right now, I felt some kind of "Vietnam flashback", and I had to compose myself, because sometimes my experience with customers was very unpleasant, to say the least. I’ve never been to the court, thanks be to God (especially knowing that in Russia there are quite a few problems with the judicial system), however in some cases I was on the brink of breaking down and giving some particularly unruly 'client' quite a beatdown (I’m a former Master Candidate at Judo, so, again, thanks be to God that it never came to this). As I’m currently working a warehouse operator at a local car dealers for a bit more than a year I have learned that working with people is not my cup of tea totally, and as much as I love repair work, PC building, working with devices and stuff, I must admit, that I’d better keep it to myself or work with some very close circle of people, who are far more forgiving than total strangers (like friends, acquaintances, family etc), lest some day it wouldn’t turn out well either for myself or for a 'customer'. You’re doing a great job out there, I wish I could be as dedicated as you are. Keep up with the good work and good luck to you in your endeavors! Cheers!🫡👍🏻🍻

She sent in her son who had left it in front of the store with walking traffic and it was knocked over and had been damaged. She damaged a full refund I refused as I never agreed to take it back and she asked me to not contact her back. She took it to small claims and mediation reached out as knowing it was waste my time I agreed to refund he the full value of the TV but she insisted on more including paperwork fees and her time. I disagreed and now a date is scheduled in the next coming months. Any suggestions on how should I resolve tbh at this point dragging me away from work and wasting my time I don’t think she should get a penny. Any thoughts?

ok , in sweden they would take that at least only to watch at the device and if they repair it 200 more (asus) at least

you obviously lie or you have not got out of your house yet. this has been discussed in the past, various times and by various bussinesses. diagnosing and repearing complicated devices, takes time. alot of time. time is money. and fixing them is often impossible due to parts not being available or not worth the cost. how each bussiness rates their no fix policy depends on various factors, like general volume, cost of living in the area, the ability to absorb those no fix costs etc. bottom line is this: NOTHING is for free especially someone's time.

I'm definitely one of those people you made mad. Expedited service meant you'd maybe look at it in a month and then after 6 weeks send it back. Cry all you want, the fix was simple. Tell me you wouldn't be able to honor the expedited service at all, don't work on it and send me my check back.

How was Ryan not held in contempt for lying to the Judge about not being offered a refund?

At one time, there were vocational electronics schools that prepared students to work as a repair technician, sadly, many of those jobs and schools have disappeared. Perhaps you can find an employee at a local community college.

I dont know why everybody here is siding with Alex, the obvious truth is that Ryan paid for expedited service but has not been informed about his device's status for almost a month and this procedural error should automatically grant him full refund, doesnt it?

Ryan seemed like a nice guy to start with, especially since he watches the channel. I kinda feel bad for him, he got screwed in all directions. Definitely not the right move to sue for $5k though...

Spot on Alex long time watcher first time poster! this is great advice. No matter what biz you run, some idiot will try to sue you! especially in the US market! and it hurts when you bleed and do everything you can for them! its like a knife in the back! but you do your thing and go to court! and win because you are in the right!

We all know being right and get your right in court are 2 totally different things. Despite you were totally in your right, you swallowed your pride, put the ego aside and offered the guy a full refund! that's just a class act!!! thank you man for sharing your ideas, and thought process and I hope we can all learn from this. sometimes its just better to call it day, sort it out, take the loss and start fresh tomorrow. what i really hope is that the guy who sued you learned something of this... this was.. well what can i say? still.. it annoys me the guy gets a full refund. not the money or time you have wasted, but doesn't this create a precedent to always go to small court and ask for full refund? why didn't the judge looked better into your shipment details, communication with client etc etc?

I worked in retail for a large US retailer in the 90s and saw stuff like this. A few years later I delivered furniture for a small company and saw a few times customers tried to pull scams on us but they never succeeded. Nowadays the attempts at scams, fraud etc on businesses is way more rampant.
