Questions & answers
Good questions, straight answers.
If you can't find what you're looking for, just ask. No question is too small.
Booking and visits
How quickly can you come out?
I work by appointment rather than fixed hours. If it's urgent, say so when you call and I'll do my best to fit you in.
How far do you travel?
I'm based in Loughborough and travel across Rushcliffe, Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire. The full list of villages is on the home page. Not sure if I cover you? Just ask.
Do I need to take my computer anywhere?
No. I come to your home, so everything is sorted right where you use it.
Pricing and payment
How much does a visit cost, and will I know before you start?
I charge £30 an hour, and travel time is included, so there's no separate call-out fee. There's a £10 minimum charge. I'll agree the price with you before I start any work.
What if you can't fix it?
Then you don't pay. It's as simple as that: no fix, no fee.
How do I pay?
I'll send you an invoice, and you can pay by card, securely, through Stripe. There's a step-by-step guide on the payment page.
What I can help with
Can you help me learn to use it, not just fix it?
Yes. Explaining things is a big part of what I do. I'll go at your pace, use your own devices, and keep it in plain English.
Do you work with businesses as well as homes?
Yes. I offer consultations for office setups and IT infrastructure, and advice on what to buy. It's the same £30 an hour.
Privacy and security
Do you need my passwords?
Sometimes a job means getting into an account or a device. If that happens, you can type your password in yourself. I'll never ask you to read it out or send it to me in a message.
What happens to the details I send you?
I only use them to reply to you and to carry out any work you ask for. You can read the full details in my privacy policy.
Still not sure? Call me on 07871 215087 or send a message. Happy to talk it through.
