Like finding a good mechanic and a good doctor, so important is finding a good computer repair person! I was sure that I was going to have to toss out my laptop and throw down money on a new one, so Hal was my last shot. He completely fixed my connectivity, major speed problems, and constant pop-ups that made we want to throw my laptop against the wall now and then. He was super fast, delivering more than he promised two days early and $50 less than he quoted. Really impressed and so happy I found my computer guy!

Over two weeks ago, I was looking for a monitor at a certain price point and Hal totally came through!!! Very friendly and personalized service. Met my need within minutes. It is a used monitor and is working like a gem. Hal took the time to hook it up in the store to show that it works without issues. Made me feel very comfortable regarding my purchase. Will definitely be going here for any computer related needs. Thanks Hal!

This place takes you back in time to the small town business feel. We need more places like this. They were both so helpful setting me up. First time computer owner. I will definitely go back even just to ask a simple question. Get back to real life Google is nice but real people beat it every time.

I wasnt able to use my computer at all for over a week, so we took it in and he had it repaired in under 30 minutes with a reasonable price of $20. They also gave the computer a free blowout. 5 stars, would recommend!

Just Ask Hal is the best. You get personal, professional, knowledgeable attention in an old fashion family business atmosphere.Weve had computers in our business since 1984 (remember the Kaypro 2?) so weve experienced a lot of computer repair places over the years and I can say Just Ask Hal really is the best.

At times like these where it’s impossible to find any parts for the computer Just Ask Hal was there. Had the display port cable I needed and was open on a Sunday! Definitely recommend for any computer parts or service!

My computer was not turning on all morning and we went to Just ask Hal for a diagnostic. He was so professional and all he had to do was hit the power button and my computer came on. He checked my power cord and everything was fine. Thank you Hal for your magic hands!

Office computer was sluggish, frustrating and taking forever to get things done. Finally got a chance to drop it of on Friday afternoon to Just Ask Hal Computers to update so that it could perform to todays fast pace life. Picked up Sunday evening and plugged it on Monday morning and it was amazing at the difference that made. Everything was just like I had left it, and 10 x faster in speed. No more aggravation of waiting for a document, calendar or email to open. Lightening fast. Courteous and professional staff. Had a follow up call this morning to make sure everything was working like it should. Could not thank them enough.

My computer is as quick as my corvette since Hal installed new solid state in my desktop. He also found 11,000 pics I thought were gone. Anytime I need computer help, I Just Ask Hal with confidence.

Hal is just the best. He solved my problem fully, quickly, and at a very fair price point. I strongly recommend that you give Hal a chance to fix your computer before spending much more on a new one.

I was very impressed with how quickly they fixed my computer; I was only without it for one night. The price came in less than the estimate as well. I will go to them with any future problems and will recommend them to others.

What - Im now So HAPPY . Hal seems very professional and I would recommend him and his STAFF 100%.Hal is the Computer Man in MYB ! Thanks

Coming here was a mistake. While on vacation I was having trouble with my MacBook. Took it here and was very unimpressed with their service and not very friendly. Paid good money and still not working right. I wish I would have listened to all the bad reviews.

I was pleasantly surprised when I called to present my problem and was told to come in that day. When I arrived Hal was the only one there. Things quickly changed and people kept coming in and the phone continually rang. Even with all of the distractions Hal was able to to take care of several people, as well as, me! My problem was an easy fix for someone as knowledgeable as Hal. He was able to take care of my issue and charged m a reasonable fee for his labor. He was very patient with me too! He made some recommendations for me to update my computer when I was ready to do so. I will return to him at that point. And yes, I would recommend Just Ask Hal!!

Review №40

This is not the only computer repair shop in business, though they act like they are. Rude and I quote Hal on “it’s whatever” as an answer to my question. And that’s after being on hold for 12 min, upon me calling back I get “oh yeah I forgot about you”, period, no apology. Looking for reliable service, keep looking.

Very disappointing. Overall bad experience: Owner has an attitude, talked down to me while I was discussing my issues, took weeks to get back. Fairly expensive repair and it doesnt seem to run any better. I wont be going back.

He had my computer for months and did nothing. The problem is as bad as he is they is no one better. All computer repair in the area is run by incompetent technicians. Fortunately I know of competent repair technicians in New Jersey and I go up there a lot so I just took the computer to New Jersey and have it repaired. It was fixed Promptly and at a great cost.

Honest, fair price, quick turn around time and very good Customer service. I picked up my PC today after having it repaired after lightening damage. This was the first time I needed to have a computer repaired and I was pleasantly surprised on how well it went at Just Ask Hal. The other Customers that I encountered while there were equally impressed. I highly recommend this business!

After several weeks Im now ready to state. I asked more than 5 times for the price. I asked more than 5 times for my trade in value. I got a price and gave permission. It took over rdd 7 days to get the work done!!! Once it was ready I went. The price had doubled my quote and I feel I gave nicer 1000.00 of computers that were older and got nothing in return . I do not write this in angry just very upset that I got screwed on money.

WELL, ANY ASPECT OF RUNNING A COMPUTER REPAIR SERVICE CENTER.....YOU ARE AT THE RIGHT PLACE!! THE LOCATION IS IN A STRIP MALL IN NORTH MYRTLE BEACH. EASY IN, OUT! THE STORE LOOKS CLUTTERED BUT ITS NOT. IT IS ACTUALLY ARRANGED BY COMPUTERS NAME, THEN PARTS FOR THAT COMPUTER....AND SO ON!NEXT: THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF ANY BUSINESS....THE PERSONNEL!!EVERY SINGLE INDIVIDUAL INVOLVED WITH JUSTASKHAL.....ALWAYS RESPECTFUL, CURTIOUS, DELIGHTFUL TO SPEAK WITH, ALL AROUND JUST GOOD PEOPLE.I THINK LAURA NEEDS TO CHANGE THE NAME OF THE STORE, BECAUSE THERE IS NO MORE HAL!!! THE REASON THERE IS NO MORE HAL IS JUST BECAUSE HAL DIDNT FILL THE STORE REQUIREMENTS. LAURA IS A GREAT OWNER OF THIS ESTABLISHMENT.

Ive been a customer of Hals for over 10 years. Wouldnt think of taking my computers anywhere other than Hal when they are in need of repair. Have purchased lap tops, hard drives and additional RAM throughout the years and each time at a fair price with a quick turnaround. Even helped me retrieve my iTunes library when I thought it was lost. Hal and his staff are great...highly recommend!

Hal-I brought my laptop in last night because I was getting wireless card error, you looked it over did a few things and WOW!

Review №66

Have used their services in the past: Horrible service, extremely rude and disrespectful. Dealing with his staff wasnt any better, they werent very helpful. You may want to try somewhere else, not worth the headache and stress. As stated by another reviewer, he is a recent criminal, and lost his business license due to fraud/tax evasion. One more reason to skip doing business with this shady businessman. New location, same horrible owner.

Review №73

Pro: He seemed to have detailed knowledge. Con: When I went to him, he charged by the time, and his internet at his shop was outrageously slow. He pretended it was my hard drive being an older one for the transfer, but it was not. I told him I was unhappy, paid him something for his time, because at his rate, it wouldve taken forever to transfer the items, and at an outrageous fee. I took it to Office Depot, and the transfer went really quickly, (10 minutes not projected hours), and it was a moderate fee, not hooked up to his in house slooooow internet. This was years ago, so I do not know if it is better now. But, if you have a specialty problem, who knows? I can only review for my transaction there. But, for what I needed, it was not good.

Review №78

Weve tried 3 times to give this company our business. Each time they seem to be more rude to us than the last. Hal was on the phone during one visit, without even acknowledging my presence, used profanity to the caller until the point I almost departed. They seem to do the work well and at a reasonable price; however appear to be irritated that a customer walks through the door. My son was asked what do you need that couldnt wait until tomorrow? Rude and unprofessional. Weve found assistance with another company.
