I got my iPhone battery replaced so I wouldnt need a new phone. I had no appointment but the two guys there were so nice, clearly knowledgeable, super fast, And much cheaper and better and nicer than the iPhone store in every way. They fixed my problem in an hour.
I wont belabor this, but its relevant to this business and the services they provide.. I was one of Geek Squads first employees long ago when Robert was operating one old car and the squad was us plus whomever we knew whod work cheap, fast and accurately.While I am proud of the marketing and positioning work I did to help shape what is 100% Roberts baby, I soon left. Long before Best Buy stepped in with the giant check, I was gone.I felt his founding mission (24/7/365... We fix everything... Done right, priced fair, perfect or its free...) was being coopted by revenue modeling, hyper efficiency, cost containment and growth at the expense of quality. We hired tons of people, and 80% were clueless and not tech savvy.So I never used Geek Squad once it became a national deal... but I have often found myself needing certain tech and install services, but none of the small operations cut it.Gophermods suddenly appeared, and within a week two tech issues that have plagued me for months were fixed within the day. Pricing is fair, and the service is excellent. The quality of their work is outstanding!
Awesome place, amazing staff and great service. Came in for a broken screen was fixed in about an hour at half the price I was quoted at other shops. Highly recommend!
Thoroughly impressed! This place is clean the techs know what they’re doing and they’re super friendly and helpful. I came in with a cracked screen they got me sorted out same day for a very competitive price. I came back six months later needing another screen repair and they fixed it same day covered under my warranty. No trying to trick you out of extra money or waste your time. I would go here again and again rather than dropping 1000 bucks on a new phone.
My Nintendo Switch LCD screen unfortunately shattered last month. After calling around, Gophermods had a reasonable price and was conveniently located near me. I paid when they ordered the part, but held onto my device until it arrived. A family member was able to bring it in (and later pick it up) when I was out of town. It did take a bit of time to complete the repair, but given the recent snow and it being over the holidays, it seemed reasonable.My switch looks brand new, and overall Im very happy with Gophermods.
Loveeeeeeeee how convenient and affordable this place is. Especially if you work Downtown Minneapolis. I came here during my lunch break, and John said my phone would be fixed in an hour. This is Just what Im looking for fast, efficient, and reliable service. John the Electronic repair technician was awesome made me feel welcomed. This is definitely the place to go if you work or live in the Twin Cities Area.
I highly recommend Gophermods! I managed to drop my little older model I phone5s twice in the span of a few months. I dropped the phone off at Gophermods, and both times the guys were able to fix my phone quickly. Especially great if you live or work in downtown Minneapolis, since they are located in the skyway level of the IDS building. Convenient, fast and friendly service!
Fast service - iPhone looks like new. Great follow up a couple days later just to make sure everything is still working. Nobody does that anymore - so refreshing to have great customer service!
Quick, easy service, very reasonable prices. Brought my phone in and they repaired it in no time. Happy to see they have refurbished phones too - likely where I will by my next one.12/16: Back for a second visit to GopherMods today after breaking my screen again. Glad I purchased their extra screen change for a little extra on my last visit as I know I’m a klutz. Another helpful visit. Always pleasant, always speedy. This is the place to go to for phone and electronic help.
My sons iPad glass had been broken for some time and had slowly been getting worse. I finally looked into getting it replaced and loved the convenience and location of Gophermods IDS Center. The drop off and turnaround was quick and the work was thorough. I shouldnt have waited so long to have it fixed.
I was at a loss when my PS3 disc drive stopped working. Luckily I found Gophermods! These guys know what theyre doing. Their prices are fair, their customer care and service as welcoming, and they offer a warranty on all products they work on. Note that the warranty is only exclusive to the specific work that theyve done, not to the product as a whole (like my PS3 disc drive). If your having trouble with your system, or any other electronic device, go to these guys.One negative about their communication: they give you a date their work will be done, but may not notify you that it is done. Be sure to have the date on hand and contact them in case this happens. I surmise that they get swamped at work and forget to send the email. A negative yes, but their work speaks for itself.
Submitted for an estimate for broken glass on the camera of a Galaxy S10+ and came back as $59 and theyd have to order a part. Went in and they had the parts needed and fixed it in 30 minutes and charged $29. Amazing.I would recommend that anyone with gadget issues check them out. I will be using them in the future.
Excellent service done fast for an amazing price.
This is long overdue, but I couldnt not tell about the amazing experience I had with this place (back in February). I originally came in for a battery change for a galaxy S6. During the repair some of the paint off of the decal came off during the separation of the phone from the base. This is not uncommon, which is why I brought it in to have it done in the first place. Without even saying a word, they started discussing how to go about the repairing the damaged parts during the battery replacement. Now this is despite me signing a waiver to repair with a possibility of these things happening. Truly it was only an aesthetic problem, but they went above and beyond to make it whole without me even requesting it. I came in for a battery, and walked out with a new capacitor and back panel, without even complaining or making a fuss about anything. This is how you treat a customer! I will always come back to this location for all of my cellphone repair needs.TL;DR - Stellar customer service; respect for your and your product. Super quick turnaround time. Employees do the right thing, store is managed by good people. If cellphones existed in the 40s, this would be the place my great grandpa would have gone to.
Gophermods fixed the broken screen on my daughters Macbook. I appreciated the upfront pricing and the fast, reliable service they provided. The update communication during the repair was useful and the follow up on service has been great!
Ive been trying to avoid replacing mobile phones and computers as a means to reduce my own waste and impact on the environment-- and Gophermods @ IDS Center made MIRACLES happen!John and the staff there upgraded my 2008 MacBook to be fully functional again so I could use Adobe Creative Cloud in just over a week (waiting for parts for an ancient lap top takes time!). I later went back and had them replace the battery and lightning charging port on my Iphone 7, making it work and operate like new, in under 2 hours.I was so impressed by their suggestions, and I really loved how clearly they communicated with me, and made sure expectations were met. I cant say enough about how simple these upgrades are, but that they saved me THOUSANDS of dollars replacing (and recycling) these items. Getting items I loved repaired, feels as good as buying something brand new. Thank you Gophermods!
I brought my laptop in with some damage from a bike accident, and while they werent able to save it, I had a wonderful experience with Amber at gophermods. I could tell she was knowledgeable and dedicated, and I felt so supported knowing she tried everything she could think of before recommending I should look into buying a new one. Great & quick service, definitely going back!
I cracked my phone screen and wanted to get it replaced somewhere quick and easy and, maybe most importantly, not sketchy! The person at Gophermods was really professional and I could tell right away I made the right choice. Wonderful experience. He gave me the information I needed to make the decision I wanted to without trying to sell me anything I didnt want! Will definitely go back if my phone ever gets damaged again.
Friendly and fast service, very helpful. This was especially nice because Im visiting from out of town and needed a quick screen replacement. Would come back (if in Minneapolis).
Very happy with my experience! Quality work, efficient, and very reasonable pricing. Plus, the staff were friendly and helpful!
Awesome spot. Was able to stop in and get my phone looked and fixed within 5 minutes! Great customer service and helpful staff. Would defiantly return back for any other cell phone issues I encounter.
The folks here at Gophermods are always super friendly and up front about what the options are and how much itll cost. They work quickly, and all of the work has been quality!
In two hours they made my phone work like new. The screen replacement on my Nexus 5x phone is flawless. Well worth the price which was less than the deductible on my insurance. These guys made me feel like Im the most important person in their lives for a day.
Wonderful! I stopped by to see if they sell glass screen protectors for a Pixel 2. They do! And the staff installed for less than the cost of my old one. Whole process took five minutes. No appointment necessary.
Wonderful service, very fast. And very thorough testing to show that everything still works.
The manager (I believe his name was Mike) is awesome. Super helpful and professional and he didn’t charge me anything because he found a quick/easy fix. I was willing to at least pay for his time but he insisted I don’t. He even trained me on how to resolve the problem next time. This was my second time there and I will definitely be back!
These guys are straightforward and honest. I was having trouble replacing my hard drive, came in to ask their opinion, and they were super helpful. They actually recommended I could do it myself for free.They booted it up using a bootable drive of theirs, explained what I should expect to see, walked me through the process, answered all my questions totally free.These guys are the best. Im coming here the next time I need help!
I brought a water-damaged MacBook Air to this Gophermods location. (This was my second hopeful stop after visiting the Genius Bar, which would not attempt to repair the computer for less than $749.00.) Within two business days, the staff were able to diagnose the problem, conduct some light maintenance, and return my laptop. The total bill was less than $100.The expertise and customer service here are top notch. In my case, not to sound too dramatic, they turned despair into elation! Highly recommend for hardware issues on your laptop (in addition to mobile devices).
Incredible customer service! I walked in to get my cracked screen serviced and they were honest about the estimated completion time (same-day service). Took a total of an hour and a half. While they were not my nearest option, Im glad I went just a little farther (2 mi) to get my phone serviced. Couldnt have been happier with my decision. Mike was very helpful and reassuring in that I leave with my phone working 100% like it was before the cracked screen. Definitely recommend Gophermods-Minneapolis, 10/10!
I brought in my phone because it was not charging properly and they cleaned the charging port for free and now it works fine. I also notice they inform you of perks your credit card company may offer to help pay for repairs, and are an all round helpful nice team.
In a panic when my phone went black with my boarding pass, scheduling calendar, you name it on the phone. Two hours later Gophermods IDS Center iPhone & iPad Repair in Minneapolis had fixed it. Keep your devices out of the trash and go to Gophermods! Grateful.
This location is very convenient for those working downtown MSP. They complete the repairs in a very timely fashion, and great customer service. They needed to order parts for my device, and John was prompt with communication on when the parts arrived and when I could get it for a fast repair. Cannot recommend them highly enough!
I have been to Gophermods in the IDS center around 5-6 times. Their service is excellent and the turnaround time on repairs is very fast. I highly recommend them for phone repair, video game console repair, and any other tech repair you may need.
John was awesome! He fixed my phone within an hour at a very affordable price. He handles panic quite well😎
My iPhone died over the weekend and it would not charge. I had been having issues with the charging port for the last few months. I was actually looking at purchasing a new phone. I stopped by this place over my lunch break. They fixed it in 2 minutes! Dust and debris in the charging port. Go figure! I asked what the cost was... they said nothing. Incredible experience.
These guys are always fast, courteous, and thorough! Wish all companies had this level of service. Highly recommend for all mobile repair needs!
I had a great experience at Gophermods, the techs were friendly and knowledgeable and very timely. I went in to get a battery replaced and they got it done in about an hour. However, the reason they only get four stars from me is because the tech accidentally killed my phone by screwing into the motherboard. He missed by half a millimeter! And that sucks BUT, they’re replacing the phone and shipping it out to me in Chicago. Overall, I wish that I had my phone back today, but under the circumstances I’m very impressed with the reaction and finesse they used to fix the mistake. Thanks Gophermods!
I thought I would need my power port worked on, they were able to clean it out for me on the spot and make it work. Saved me $$ and delivered excellent service.
Had a stuck screw in my motherboard that was beginning to become stripped. As a part of their diagnostic service, they were able to cleanly remove the screw and install a new one. Extremely satisfied with the service and turnaround time.
With all the positive reviews on here, it was disappointing to me how the service went. I brought in my PS4 Pro to be fixed, specifically telling the guy working their that it kept shorting out, even when I had rebuilt the database. I get an email a week later saying it’s fixed, and within 30 seconds of me turning it on it shorts out again. The guy told me they rebuilt the database and it would be fine before it left, but he clearly didn’t even listen to what I said the issue was in the first place. Hopefully things will change the 2nd go around, as I brought it back to see if they would actually fix it this time.
They were able to fix my iPhone that wouldnt turn on. It took less than an hour and was way cheaper than purchasing a new phone. Would highly recommend for any phone repairs.
I didnt make a purchase at GopherMods but sent them an email asking if they had an item in stock to save me a trip. They replied to my email within half an hour to let me know the item wasnt available. Quick communications earned them 5 stars from me!
Great experience with Gopermods, both in-person at the IDS center and communicating via email with the Plymouth location.Quick fix for a broken screen, plus plenty of time and patience for all of the general technology questions I had as a recent smartphone convert.
I had a great experience with the people that work to care for the customers at Gopher Mods. I was able to get the technical help that was needed and even when my phone continuously had some issues Gopher Mods ordered me a new phone and a phone case that would keep my phone safe. They helped to keep things simple in a time that I really needed more simplicity.
Have used Gophermods two times now to repair a broken screen. They are always super fast and provide an great customer experience. I will no doubt be using them again in the future.
If you are in Downtown Minneapolis and have an issue with your phone, Gophermods is definitely the place to go. I had a speaker on my iphone that was not sounding right and bugging me. I stopped in and they diagnosed the issue and fixed the phone in less than an hour. Justin was great - very friendly and knowledgeable! Highly recommend Gophermods downtown Minneapolis.
Fixed the issue with my charge port in about 2 minutes. Turns out something was stuck. And no charge. I’ll definitely be back for any problems and happy to support an ethical business!
Quick turn-around for the $19 inspection, clear next steps, very helpful team at IDS!
Great resource to have in the heart of downtown Minneapolis. They fixed me up and I was right back to work
Ive gotten my phone fixed here twice already! Once by John, the other time by Mike. Both of them did an outstanding job. Had it fixed and ready same day, brand spankin new. Plus they have the best insurance plan out! Only $20 you get a whole year of coverage. Its worth it, you never know whats gonna happen in a years time.Tell your mom, brother and even granny to check em out.I appreciate yall man.This has been a review by:~Vidal~
Really nice and knowledgeable. Knew exactly what was causing my phone to not turn on. Resolved it (real easy fix) and gave me advice for the future (known issue with my phone brand).
Michael was exceptionally patient and knowledgeable when talking me through my phone issues and answering my questions. I was impressed with how much he knew and very much appreciated his customer service! A full 5/5 rating for Gophermods and Michael!
The staff at Gophermods was very helpful and courteous. My experience was outstanding, and I would highly recommend them.
These folks know what theyre doing. Another shop had failed - twice - to repair my phone, and these guys got it right the first time. Highly recommended.
Its like having a good car mechanic, but for your phone. And by that I mean that you have no idea if any parts really were changed, especially for less obvious work. You just kinda have to take their word for it and sign your phone away.
Stopped in to get my boyfriends PS4 cleaned and have his fan replaced. Kaya was quick and helpful! Would highly recommend
They are great! I will come back w/ my tech needs very honest.
At exactly 2 years my iPhone charging port starts going out. Ive battled with it the past 4 months and dealt with the times my phone didnt charge all to save the $20+ a month Verizon would charge me if I got a new phone. I decided to try GopherMods in the IDS right near work. In 3 minutes Michael came back with my phone charging perfectly. Michael and GopherMods have a new loyal customer. Cleaning the gunk out of my charging port for free earns a 5 star rating easy.
Gophermods provides not only great service, but also acts as a great member of the community. I had a problem with the power button on my laptop bending back and breaking off. They were able to fix it and explain what happened to me quickly and at no cost as part of the diagnostic process.
Lightning quick repair and friendly, approachable customer service. I would absolutely trust Gophermods with any cell phone repair and will visit again if needed.
Great staff and they always get the job done right.
GopherMods is an excellent service. Friendly, competent, and knowledgeable help. Mike helped me out primarily, and he is an absolute class act. I would happily recommend GopherMods to a friends and family, as well as a raise or bonus for my main man, Mike!
They were amazing! They were unbelievably fast and their prices are wonderful! I am so happy that I got my experience with them! I definitely recommend this store!
Great service. Dropped my second phone a couple of days later and destroyed the screen. 10/10 would go back there for repairs.
A-MAZING! One of my top 5 customer experiences ever. I was so bummed to discover the glass screen that covers my camera had shattered. I was referred to Gophermods through another retail store who said they wouldnt be able to help me. A camera part was out of stock and Casey was kind enough to overnight the part and have my phone fixed the very next day. I was going out of town and they were so accommodating. I would totally recommend this company to everyone!!
Stopped at this location while out of town after having a mishap with dropping my phone and the screen no longer working. After looking more into it, it was a simple disconnection rather than having to repair an expensive part. They were happy to help us out and it is greatly appreciated!
They turned around my XBox repair in less than one business day. The downtown location is super convenient since I work downtown. No driving required. :) Ill be taking a laptop there soon so Ill report back on that. Thanks Gophermods!
Gophermods got my iphone fixed and working all in the same day. Great job thanks!
Amazing customer service, fixed my phone quickly and also gave me advice on which video card to buy for my PC.Great overall experience!
I have used Gophermods twice, both times have been excellent service. Repairs have always been way cheaper then I would have expected too!
Super clean and modern store. Short turnarounds for repairs. John was super knowledgeable and helpful.
Would use again and recommend. We had some issues with the screen after it was fixed but the staff was awesome and went above and beyond in correcting the issues.
Super fast and friendly service! They fixed my screen issue in under 30 minutes. Thanks, Mike and team!
Had a great experience at Gophermods in the IDS. John was helpful and quick to fix the water damage on my i-phone. I will definitely be back for any future repairs!
These guys are top notch. They always care more about the repair than the charge. Very fair and very smart!!!
Free diagnoses means theyve helped me numerous times before Ive had to pay them. I trust their judgement and knowhow, so Im a loyal customer at this point.
Excellent and friendly customer service. Replaced my broken screen quickly and well. Highly recommend.
Couldnt be happier with the service, speed and professionalism. Had my shattered iPhone 6 screen repaired in a jiffy. Thanks Gophermods!
Overpriced and cheap materials, I broke the screen on my phone recently and took it in to get repaired not only did it take them a week to repair but the screen they used wasnt the right color and was two plane glass instead of three plane. dont go to gopher mods!
Friendly, honest staff gave me expert advice on phone care and cleaned the charging port (it was full of lint, and no longer charging) at no cost! I thought my phone was doomed - thats service, you dont see much of these days!
Honest and upfront about pricing and repairs. Fast service.
After my horrible experience with T-Mobile Downtown Mpls. I went over to GopherMods, with whats was left of my only hope to fix my LG 4. John gave me solace that he would find me a solution. And thats what he did. Thanks to John, I discover that LG had a repair warranty on the device! Saving me money and a giving me piece of mind.John is an true example of an exemplary customer service and a skilled tech.Thank you John and GopherMods!
I had a great experience with GopherMods for my laptop issue. A lot of water was spilled directly on my Macbook Pro, and they immediately took it in, opened it, disconnected critical parts of the system and started drying it. The laptop still has some issues due to the severity of the spill, but without their quick action it would have been completely unsalvageable . Casey was great, and let me pick it up on a weekend outside normal business hours!
Great customer service! John answered all my questions and then some!
Quick iPhone 7 repair in less than an hour!
I was in Minneapolis for work & unable to leave my phone for very long & it literally couldnt have been more broken...still Michael took amazing care of me & got my phone back to me within only 3 hours & its perfect, like it never even broke in the first place! THANKS MICHAEL!
These guys are amazing seriously cant explain how thankful I am! I dropped my phone in the water and they brought it back to life for me for a reasonable and affordable price.
I cant give enough stars! After getting bad advice from 2 leading phone stores and a phone repair store - I was lucky enough to be referred to John at GOPHERMODS. They are EXPERTS in understanding how things work and are HONEST with their customers, which is why I will trust them with any personal and business needs.LexAnn SteffensSr. VP of Operations
An annoying adventure was how my morning started and Gophermods helped me get my day back on track. I had my iphone stuck in mid software update and I had no internet access to finish the job so I could use my phone. The Tech at Gophermods allowed me to plug into their computer and finish the job.
Super fast, incredible to work with, fantastic in every way.
Brought my iPad in due to my son breaking the charger off inside of it. They fixed it on the spot and didnt charge!
These guys do literally everything right. I trust them as people, collectively.
Very intelligent and helpful, will definitely use again
Stood behind their warranty on my cellpone screen replacement
Do you guys repair PSP 200 console
