Do You Need a Mobile Phone Repair During Lockdown?
With most of the UK in our third COVID-19 lockdown, many people are having to resort to staying at home for work and play. Just about everyone is now relying on mobile and online communications services, such as Facetime, Whatsapp and Zoom to help stay in touch with friends and colleagues. Because of this unprecedented situation, reliance on mobile phones and tech has escalated exponentially.
So when a phone or device breaks, the need for a repair and to get ‘connected’ once more is probably more important now than ever before.
That’s where we come in.
ArmaFone is Open
Despite the situation that we are currently undergoing, ArmaFone are still doing mobile phone repairs during lockdown, but with some tighter safety procedures and various other changes so as to keep our DBS-checked technicians and customers protected during the current times.
These procedures include:
– Social Distancing Procedures
We have adapted our working process for our call-out technicians when they carry out mobile phone repairs during lockdown. Ensuring social distancing is maintained throughout and working from one of our fully equipped mobile workshops means that social distancing is maintained throughout. In addition your device, tools and card machine are sanitised continually throughout the process. The device is passed back and forth using a sanitised ‘transfer’ box, again to maintain social distancing.
– Smaller Staff Numbers
For those of you who wish to visit our store in ASDA at Goddard Road, Ipswich, you may notice that the amount of staff we have appear to be limited compared to before. This is to help ensure the safety of both our in-store staff and our customers. In addition we have barriers in place so customers who wish to see what stock we have can see but not touch without a member of staff to assist. This means we can keep products sanitised until point of purchase.
– FREE Call-Out Services
Traffic is reduced due to the lockdown. To keep things that way and allow you to follow the ‘stay at home’ advice, we have made our call-out service free to use. You will pay the same price for a phone repair in-store as you will for one of our technicians to visit you and repair your device outside your home or place of work. We are currently promoting the call-out services by not only making them a FREE option, but moving some of our store staff into vehicles for the duration of the lockdown.
Remember, with our call-out service we will pay you the same price you would get if you came to get a repair in-store, whether you use the call-out service at home or at work.
SplitPay – Spread Your Costs Interest Free!
Whether you are spending £20 or £200 with us you can take advantage paying over 4 months, interest-free through our collaboration with SplitPay! This gives you the peace of mind that your mobile phone repair can be carried out when you need it.
So In Short?
To briefly summarise everything, here’s what we at ArmaFone are doing to help maintain any mobile phone repair during lockdown:
- Safety first – through social distancing and sanitising everything we or you touch, we’re keeping you and our techs safe.
- Call-out recommendation – we are offering a FREE call-out service so that you don’t need to come to us – we can come to you!
- Spread the cost – through SplitPay you can pay for your repair(s) over the course of 4 months interest free.
- Peace of mind – you will still get 12 months warranty with your repair(s), no matter what payment option you choose!
