I had made a phone call the day before. Just needing to drop off my laptop. Waited 45 minutes after driving an hour. Tech told me I was next then they called the next person in the queue. I said I just needed it checked in and leave it Traveling several hundred miles and they would be able to have the unit for several days. The phone conversation was told the day before that I would be able to. Very disappointed. I would be able for them to have the laptop for several days! The business is in Ames! Very disappointed in their performance and professional ethics as I was told by 2 others and left.

Very useless service. Brought a laptop that I purchased from the location less than a year ago because some of the keys were not working consistently. They had it for four weeks and when I got it back and asked what they had done to fix it they said that they updated windows. Did not even look at the keyboard. The problem still persists and makes typing much harder when you have to press the C key 20-40 times before it works.

You will get some one in a call center reading a script.when you get to the store they will try to sell you a service plan and no one there can address your problem. They want to send it somewhere. Don't waste your time, my experiance was they cannot help you.
