Camera settings improved

My phone photos looked blurry even in good light. The expert walked me through cleaning the lens properly, resetting the camera settings, and adjusting focus behavior. They also explained how lighting affects clarity and recommended stabilization techniques. The difference was immediate and noticeable, and now my photos look much sharper.

Quick support

I received an email informing me of charges to my PayPal account. I got very nervous and made my heart stop for a second.and logged on to PayPal to report it. I got connected to an advisor who informed me that the email was fraudulent. It is great to see how quickly someone responded to me. It made my day.

i cant believe you wont refund my 92 year old father who got tricked into signing up for your service when he left his phone in an uber, he then had to borrow my wifes credit card and now we find out that the card number he put in while on a chat session with one of your people has been added to someones digital wallet, what you people have done is disgraceful and so wrong on so many levels then you wont refund a pensioner what you took, be ashamed very ashamed

Update..
they asked for my details which i provided and nothing, that was a few days ago, so i hope you feel great about ripping off a 92 year old pensioner who got conned by your company, its a pity you cant give a negative score

Great service

Great service, even though it took me well more than two hours to solve major problem with Samsung Flip Z5. Daria walked through all problems patiently, even though my screen menu was not behaving as it should. I am in Australia, so the menu is probably a little different, I suspect. Great service and problem solved ... I think!

My streaming app froze constantly and made watching anything frustrating.
