Apple Certified Technicians Reviews / Testimonials
" You should be proud in the way you conduct your business. "
Thanks again.
" Even after I inflicted damage to my laptop (my own fault) the nice chap at Compter Star had it up and running in just a day. Later, upon discovery that the DVD drive had malfunctioned, he fixed that overnight, too, with no additional charge. This fellow is worth every penny that he charges. I highly recommend owners of sick Macs to consult with him first, before going to the Apple Stores "
" I thank Computer Star for bringing new life to my MacBook Pro. The cost to repair my pink lined screen was far cheaper than replacing my computer. They also brought new life to my old Dell computer which is a life line of my radio business. Thanks so much and I will recommend your services to anyone who has computer problems.
Thanks again so much."
"I just wanted to jot a quick note to thank you for the GPU repair. I powered up and ran the machine through its paces. I connected an external monitor using the USB port to DVI adapter and it worked wonderfully, both in duplicate and extended modes. I used my Duet driver to connect an iPad as an external monitor and that worked as it was supposed to as well. I upgraded the OS to Mojave and had no trouble with the upgrade.
I am very happy with your work and want to thank you again for the GPU fix. I wish you well in your business. Nice work!!"
Best regards,
"Computer Star is an amazing company with skilled people dedicated to exceeding customer expectations!"
"Computer Star has been one of my most important relationships for the last 6 years in which I have owned a MacBook Pro. I have always counted on this business to provide me with reliable and cost-effective services, but this last year has made computer star even more important to me. In late September I experienced a house fire, my entire music studio was located directly under the hot spot, and most everything was destroyed. The last and most important component of my studio was my MacBook Pro, which although removed to another area of the house, still suffered a great deal of smoke damage. The damage was so severe that all of the contents of that same room were disposed of in a trash bin. I saved the computer in hopes that the shop could do something to save the heart of my music... And they did! The body of the computer may have been badly damaged, but my computer is still working!
Two weeks later, another music colleague also lost her home in a fire. Again the laptop was in perilous circumstances... This time smoke and severe water damage... And they managed to save the precious data from that laptop. Because of Computer Star, one of the key organizers of Canada Music Week was back in business... And many careers were saved."
"I first contacted Computer Star five years ago. I was having problems with my laptop that required immediate attention. A few hours later, arrived at my residence. He looked, checked and fixed the problem. He was very attentive, professional and had the problem fixed in no time. Since our original introduction, I have used Computer Star services many times. You get complete satisfaction and mostly, Computer Star is there to help you to solve whatever problem you may have with your computer. I have referred Computer Star to many of my friends who are very happy with his services and thanked me for referring Computer Star to them."
"Great service with a very quick turn around at a very reasonable cost. Now my MAC book is working perfectly. Staff was very polite and courteous."
"Computer Star was able to recover all of the data from my damaged USB drive; data that was critical to continuing some work I was doing and that wasn't stored anywhere else. The work was done promptly and the service was professional. I recommend this venue to anyone looking for a fast and reliable provider to restore/retrieve data."
" Thank you very much for purchasing my MacBook. You quickly provided me with a competitive quote and efficiently tested my computer and paid me for it. I was unsure about how easy it would be to sell my computer, but doing so with Computer Star was a real pleasure. Thank you again!"
" Thank you Computer Star for fixing my old Gateway desktop computer. The power button was giving me problems and the computer would not turn on. Computer Star diagnosed the problem and changed the defective Heat Sink Fan and Memory Module. Works perfectly now just like brand new and I am seeing a much faster performance than before. The cost for repair was very reasonable. I would recommend Computer Star to anyone that has any type of computer hardware or software problem. Thanks again Computer Star for your courteous and professional service."
"Wanted to thank you for all the hard work and dedication required on you're end in fixing my macpro book. I came to Rafik in a panic when my hard drive crashed and I thought I had lost all my data and important documents related to my law school material. Rafiq put in the extra effort and brilliance needed to fix my computer & recover all my data on it. Thank you so much for finding the correct solution to my problem that other technicians failed to do.
I will continue coming to you in the future for all my tech related problems as you're service, knowledge and solutions are the best! Thank you again!!"
"Hello
Thank you very much for recovering all of the data from my iphone 5.
I was on vacation over the holiday down in the Dominican when my iphone died when it was charging overnight. Apple said that there was nothing they could do, and my data was gone, but I was lucky because my extended warrantee would cover a replacement phone. It had been 2 year since the last time I had backed up my phone and all my pictures were gone, including the video of my son being born, and my daughter taking her first steps and learning to talk and also all my business phone contacts. Someone suggested data recovery. I tried calling many companies and several of them told me that it was impossible with an iphone 5. It was lucky that I did not take no for an answer and found "Computer Star". The technician from Computer Star never said that it would be a problem, and he was able to recover all the data from my phone and he also was very helpful in reinstalling everything back onto my new phone.
I am very happy to recommend "Computer Star" for anyone who has lost data from their phone."

iMac Repair
"Just wanted to send a quick note thanking you for the great job you did in repairing the IMac internal display port. Because of an incompatible part that was sold to me by an online supplier, you had to make multiple attempts but still charged a very reasonable amount for your time and effort. I have already recommended your store to have service done on IMac after the great experience I had. Thank you!"

Testimonial for: Computer Star
" I happened upon their website when I was looking for a company that could retrieve data from a Sandisk Cruzer that had snapped off at the USB head quite by accident. I did some research and found numerous companies that said they could retrieve the data, but Computer Star was the only one that promised you would only pay if they successfully recover your data.
They came to my home to pick up the Cruzer and into their labs it went. I didn’t think they had a chance in recovering anything to be honest, but then I was sent an email with a list of all my files they had recovered! They had done it! I was very impressed to say the least.
When I receive exceptional service from a company, I immediately ask them if I can put their link on my website under preferred vendors, so needless to say, Computer Star is going on my website!"

"I received my computer and the new external hard drive and all of the file appear to be intact. Thanks for rushing to get everything back to Brampton by Thursday morning!"
Best,

"Hi Computer Star, dropping a line to let you know that you did a great job on my son's MacBook Pro. Within 24 hours you diagnosed the problem, repaired it and recovered data at a reasonable price. Thanks."

"Being a computer professional for over 30 years, I knew exactly what the problem was when I heard my external hard drive sing the "whirrrr, click, click, click" sounds of death. I also knew that data recovery was going to require expensive disassembly and reassembly. What was on the disc was not critical and so the decision to recover the data was postponed. I just was not prepared to pay the price of doing business with "big box" data recovery services who's prices were driven by the large corporations and banks they support. What led me to Computer Star was a chance internet search. They were open on weekends and were obviously trying to support the home computer user. Their results exceeded my expectations. All but a few files were successfully recovered and their price was totally in line with my budget. I have no hesitation in recommending Computer Star."

"Rafiq, I just want to let you know that you are truly the best. Your knowledge and pleasant manner are outstanding. I think you are gift to the IT world and to me. You are so patient and thorough. My old PC required someone just like you. To everyone out there if you need help with your computer do not call anyone else, Rafiq is the BEST !!! "
.............................................................................................................................................................
"I would like to add my great appreciation to Rafiq who came to my Hotel to install a much needed upgraded hard drive in my MacBook Pro. I am an airline pilot and was on an overnight layover from Europe in the Toronto area. His service was excellent, prompt and professional. I would highly recommend him and his company for any computer needs. Thanks."

MacBook Pro Repair
"Thanks for the great service"
.............................................................................................................................................................
" I just had Rafiq to my house to work on a problem with my MacBook Pro, and he was incredible. He was so fast, efficient, and a pleasure to deal with. He actually took the time to explain to me what the problem was and how to fix it, and I will most definitely call him for any problem I or my friends have in the future. I just wanted to share what an incredible job he did, and send some praise his way! "

" First came the crisis: a frightening blue screen that stopped my computer on its tracks. For some time, I'd been telling myself I had to get an external hard drive to back up my data, but never seemed to find the time to do so. Being self-employed and facing deadlines that had to be met, I panicked. There were emails, work documents on that PC I needed to meet the deadlines. Gone. And then, even worse, I thought of the irreplaceable photos of my children, which I'd meant to print. Gone. And it was a weekend. I googled for computer repair companies and found Computer Star. Although it was Saturday morning, Rafiq came to my house and tried to fix it on the spot, but the problem was too severe. He took it with him, ran diagnostics, identified the drive was gone, and looked into what data could be retrieved. He kept me posted on the progress so I could make informed decisions at each step and associated costs for both the repairs and the data retrieval. He emailed me the list of the files he could retrieve so I could make sure that I was paying to retrieve the photos and work-related data I needed, rather than just the multitude of other files, which weren't important to me. By Monday, I had my computer back--and my data. Rafiq's professionalism, dedication to customer service and technical expertise saved the day! I highly recommend Computer Star. I'll never need its services for data retrieval as I'm now backing up fanatically, but should I have any other computer problems, I will definitely be using Computer Star. "

" I have a retail business in Brampton, In Shoppers World Mall. Recently my computer got badly infected with some malware, and would not perform anything!! I rushed to Staples in my mall. they wanted couple of days with my computer and with no guarantee, to fix the machine and either to recover any data!. I was shocked and so was my partner. I am glad that we googled a search to find Local, computer repair techs. And am equally happy that we 1st contacted "Computer Star", The gentleman not only came at his 1st available time the same day, Saturday, but spent a lot of time on the computer. He was patient, dedicated and a great person. I am happy my computer got fixed after his hard work, he not only re-stored everything, he got rid of that Virus too. I am already thinking to purchase some great priced hardware (couple of new computers) from them. I will recommend Mr. Raf's Computer star to all my known people, he is "worth-it". Thank you; you are my new Techie Buddy."

"As a business woman, my computer is my livelihood. If it is not working, I am not making any money. When my computer crashed I was at my wits end, when a friend gave me Computer Star's name in high regard. I called them and the same day their expert was over, and fixed my MacBook within 15 minutes. I could not believe how attentive and knowledgeable he was. I will certainly be keeping his phone number on my speed dial in case such emergency arises again. "
.............................................................................................................................................................
"No problem, thanks, to someone whom I consider my friend, Tech from Computer Star, as he helped like a friend,to keep my identity of a self-imposed on-line groupie type...He gave me a great gift of Norton Security which is freakin awesome, as I did manage to get these bugs,but thanks to this gift I am sending this thank you and my heartfelt accolades...Thanks Techi, my friend, my brother... "

" I recently worked with Tech from Computer Star to recover the data on my iMac and was very pleased with the result. He repaired my computer, backed up the data to an external drive and had everything ready to go within 1 week - and at a reasonable price. I would highly recommend Computer Star. "
.............................................................................................................................................................
"I have been so impressed with the prompt service I got from Computer Star. Any time I had a problem , they were always there. I could not get online at one point for example. My card was not being read. The tech stayed until the problem was solved . Thanks to him, I can now get my homework done.

Mac PowerBook - Fixed
" Just wanted to send a big thank you for the work you did rebuilding my laptop. The speed, the door to door service and the price were all terrific. Hopefully I wont need your services soon, but should the need arise I wont hesitate to call you. I will recommend you to anyone I know that needs computer repairs or mods. Again thanks. "

"During a long life I have seldom met anyone as pleasantly devoted to finding a problem, diagnosing it, and providing the solution. Patience, devotion, a well trained mind are your stock in trade; available promptly, as I learned when defeated by an electronic difficulty. Thanks again Computer Star. I know where to call, if the need arises. "

" I thought I was gonna lose everything on my laptop. Computer Star is able to fix the problem without doing data recovering. Thank you for the excellent service!!! "

"Techs from Computer Star are computer wizards, hands down. I have a MacBook that turned into paperweight overnight, it was completely useless. I called Computer Star, tech listened patiently and told me right away that he had a good idea of what the problem was. In a matter of one hour my laptop was running perfectly. He brought it back from the dead at a VERY reasonable price. Here, I feel its worth sharing that his competitors had a slightly lower hourly rate, BUT the rest of the necessities are first of all more expensive and secondly more inconvenient (He did EVERYTHING on site, whereas the competition said they would have to take the computer back to the "office" order parts etc. and I cannot stress the cost...the competitions quote was 50% HIGHER) thank you. I'm a Computer Star customer for life"

" Today I thought I had to replace my computer. Computer Star fixed the problem and saved me $ $ $"
.............................................................................................................................................................
" I've been using Computer Star for several years now and I can tell you that their service and abilities are almost magical, at a cost that's truly reasonable. On many occasions my computer problem has been solved over the phone at no charge. They have even come to my home (and I live in Caledon East) and fixed my problem on site at no additional cost for travel. Their knowledge is truly remarkable.
These people know what they're doing! "

Computer Service - Fantastic
" I own an old computer which is used for information and surfing the Internet. A virus decided to rent space on it and eventually took over the hard drive. I called up Computer Star, who had done good work on this computer in the past. He came to my home, worked on my computer, even did some upgrade, now my computer is happy and I'm happy. He did a fantastic job. Computer Star is a very professional, friendly and person. I recommend him very highly. Your computer does not work? Call up Computer Star, You will not be disappointed."

"Computer Star": I just wanted to thank you for your excellent service. We at Axion-Steart Insurance Services couldn't be more pleased. Also, and best of all, is your accessibility for service.

.............................................................................................................................................................
"We have had Computer Star to our office on several occasions to address our computer repairs and hardware installation needs.

It is indeed a pleasure to do business with."
