Complaint Review: LAPTOP READY REPAIR

  I sent my laptop to them and in a few days they responded with a written estimate.  The estimate was inflated and included hardware that did not need to be replaced. 
    If you decide not to do the work it will cost you $69 plus return shipping. The worst thing is that there alleged diagnostics are not the real problem.   I took my laptop to a local repair shop and got it fixed for $40.
  I looked them up on the Better Business Bureaus website after the fact and saw that they had over 109 claims on file and based on BBB files, this business has a BBB Rating of F .      
  This company also does business under the following names
