Portswood Computers

I paid over £400 to have a pc built from scratch (Just the Tower).It never worked from the day I got it. Took it back after I fitted more memory 6 GB in all «more than adequate» as it still would not function correctly and no programs to speak of had been loaded to slow it down. They charged me another £24 to load a free AVG antivirus telling me I had 17 viruses, well they must been contracted, eh hem! when it left the shop as it was incredibly bad from the first use. Maybe their cracked version of windows has got faults in it as the drivers for the keyboard and screen do not load up correctly. And its all got worse so I now have to find someone to trust, that knows what their doing to re install everything.
Sorry Guys two chances are enough.

I asked about selling a computer at the shop and the employee was somewhat rude. He said unnecessary things about used computers being no good and being past their sell date. I thought he could have been a bit more professional about it. Also, some months ago I paid £40 to have viruses removed. I was told that’s what was wrong with my computer. But when I picked it up they told me there were no viruses. And I still have this thing that says click to run error. I thought they were supposed to remedy that. Their service is quite poor.

We took a laptop into portswoods computers 2 weeks ago with a power supply fault. The laptop has been taken to pieces and is still in bits with no progress at all. This apparently is due to interuptions every 5 mins. We have now been told that we will have to pay to retrieve the laptop which will be in bits.
The engineer abbi has put the phone down on me twice so far and is now as I type serving customers in the shop whilst I wait for confirmation of the price I will need to pay to retrieve the laptop I have spend a total of about 2 hours on the phone trying to resolve this matter but have been told I do not understand computers and have no idea how a computer business works.

If you need your computer fixing or if you want one built from scratch to your specifications this is a place I can thoroughly reccomend. The tech guys here know exactly what they are talking about and if a problem is fixable they will fix it. No matter what you need — a memory upgrade, virus removal, new windows package — they can do it all. They sell a selection of computer accessories as well such as mouse, headphones, discs etc and are more than happy to help you choose the right PC for your needs — they never over sell something and can cater for most budgets. They ask a few questions to determine what you need most — high graphics or high memory etc and work out options from there. In my opinion this is a better bet than the larger more well known computer stores. No direct parking but several carparks nearby.
