Wrong hospital at World Square
I had problem with my iPhone and after visiting this store they told me that if they could not fix I would not pay anything but if they could fix it would cost $240.
The day after I got told that they could fix, so I paid the $240.
Two weeks later, after fixed, my phone did not work again.
Got back to the store and I left the phone for future investigation.
A week later I got the phone back, but it just worked for few weeks!
To cut shorter, after three months my warranty with them expire and I left with no phone and $240 less in my pocket.

Read moreter the three months I got told that they could not fix it! So if you are planning to get your phone fix please think twice to use this business. A positive story was that during the time I spend with this store, I got a battery replaced from one of my old phones and look like after several months the battery is ok. I won’t take my phone to this hospital !
Never go here. Rip off. Still haven’t got my money back. No email or contact from them
Had my phone repaired at World Square on 13 February. The front screen and rear screens were cracked but they fixed the front screen and also gave me a cover for protection of the front screen. The screen repair was $230 and the screen protector was $20.
A couple days later I started to have problems with the screen where I could not see any pictures or icons. The only way it worked was if I plugged it into my car as I could see it on my Apple CarPlay. The phone was still working but the screen was faulty.
I eventually got the phone fixed a...
Read moret Salamander Bay at a different store. Upon fixing the phone they said that the screen was poor quality, one display screw + main casket was missing. Also there was moisture in the phone. Never go here. Rip off. Still haven’t got my money back. No email or contact from themCrappy repair and told it is my fault
Took my iPad to Eastgardens to have the charger (which was stuck in the charging port) removed. I then asked to have the cracked screen replaced. I picked up the iPad and returned home. The next day, I noticed it was lifting/peeling off and when I pressed the home button the screen cracked. I returned to the store and was told it was my fault but as 'goodwill', he would replace it with a new one. When I picked it up, he marked my receipt, 'no warranty'.
The next day, the screen started lifting off again...I returned to the store ...I requested...
Read more a refund but was denied. The manager was not there so he was called. Again he suggested I was at fault despite me telling him the screen was lifting. It appeared a new screen was simply stuck over the old cracked one. I was entitled to a refund and after much arguing I received it but he instructed the employee to remove the screen he put on...leaving my iPad with no screen? I refused. In addition, when he spoke to me on the phone, he was arrogant and rude but was so nice to my husband who was there. I will never use them again and never recommend them either.

MACQUARIE STORE IS THE MOST INCOMPETENT WITH THE MOST RUDENESS EVER
In taking my Samsung J5 Pro with a broken screen to Macquarie Mobile Phone Hospital and chose them as i they did a quick closing technique for me to order the screen in the next 10 minutes to get the screen "maybe" that day. i later found that other store did the screen $20 cheaper & still use genuine parts. I paid a deposit and the screen didn't arrive until the following day. i rushed back to get the screen fixed but the repairer wasnt there for the 10am appointment to fix. i waited 30 mins. He finally arrived & removed the screen and 25 minu...
Read moretes later he said the new screen was faulty. he gave the phone back to without a screen and was told to come back the next day to retry a new screen. Overnight i found his attempt of repairs were dodgy and that he tried to fit a different model J5 phone screen. i rung the next morning asked to have my deposit back, i have to fight hard to get it back and the owner of this dodgy store was SO SO SO RUDE to me on the phone...... So phone was fixed from a different repairer that confirmed a different screen was tried to be fitted, other parts therefore had to be changed.... DODGY AND OVERPRICED + RUDE RUDE RUDEFind out how Mobile Phone hospital compares to other Phone / Computer Repair Services

Confused. Unhappy.
Left an iPad there for cracked screen to be replaced. I think Alex rang me saying he has pictures of the components suggesting that it was not an iPad. When I asked for the pictures or for him to write a letter to state what he found he wanted nothing of it. Why tell me then? Now only two or more weeks after picking up the screen they fixed for 130 is falling off.!

Eastgardens mobile phone hospital
Hi all,
Turned up to the Eastgardens store at 5.45 on a Thursday night with a Samsung s6 edge. Was quoted $350 for a front screen, no problem with the cost. Staff were very lazy more interested in talking to each other than repairing the phone as I came back 3 times each hour to see how the repair was going. I received the phone back with the front screen replaced and the undamaged rear glass completely cracked. Apparently that is normal, at no time was I informed that the back screen would look like I've thrown it from a 2 storey house. To ma...
Read moreke matters worse the repair guy said can I come back tomorrow so he can repair the headphone socket which he broke trying to repair the phone. Why take the job and $350 when you return a phone still broken and advise the customer they need to pay an extra $60 to change the back screen. Terrible experience. Will buy a new phone now. Very upset customer.
Would never go back there again.
6 month old iPhone stopped working so I went there to ask some questions and get pricing, was told they would send it to apple and get back to me on pricing, waited 2 weeks and heard nothing from them, called them and was told it would cost 180 to fix, when asked what the actual problem with it was they couldn't tell me, no biggie, had the phone for a week and it did the exact same thing, took it back and told them what had happen and at first they couldn't even find that they had ever touched my phone, then when I found my receipt they offered...
Read more to look at it again, I was also told they do not send them to apple, so the first person I talked to had lied about where they send them to get fixed if I had known they didn't send to apple I wouldn't have let them have my phone. They said if it was the same problem as before it would be under warranty, I asked if they would tell me what the problem was and they said they put it down to software issues, 4 weeks later I called to check up and see what's happening with my phone, get quoted the same price but it's a "different issue" so I had to pay for it, then two weeks after they call me and tell me it's going to cost $400 to fix, when asked what's wrong they put it down to software again and tell me my screen is also stuffed, this phone had never been dropped and was always in a case so I cannot see how that could happen. I didn't want to pay that much to have my phone fixed by the people who lied, were very unprofessional and rude but I had photos on there that I didn't have copies off and I told I wouldn't be able to get them back unless I got the phone fixed. They ended up having my phone for over 12 weeks, then when they got it back in store I received a text saying if I didn't pick it up within the week they would throw it away, when no one had even told me they had it back. Admittedly the guy I talked to when I went to pick it up was very apologetic and even gave me $80 off once I had explained what had happened, but ever since I got my phone back it hasn't been 100% right. Would not go there again and would not tell anyone to go there, time wasters, rude, unprofessional, lairs I could go on but I'll stop there.Shellhabour Stockland Mall store very rude manager, very poor customer service
Went to Mobile Phone Hospital at Shellhabour Stockland Mall yesterday. Purchased a battery for my son's Samsung Note 4. Within 5 minutes I returned to MPH and hadn't even left the store to ask to return it as my son did not want a non genuine battery . Manager would not refund my money, he was rude and obnoxious, stuck with an way overpriced battery which won't get used, noy happy at all.
Do not waste your time
I dropped my phone into the Macquarie shop requesting a new battery on Saturday and was advised Tues-Wed it will be available. Come Wed afternoon the store manager tells me they weren't able to find anywhere for a Sony Xperia battery (which was a lie, because), the guy who originally accepted my phone on Sat came up and said he only ordered the part on Tuesday.
Four days passed before they even placed an order for the parts!!!
If not for me calling them four times to follow up, I doubt they would have even noticed.
Needless to say I took my phone back and will be taking it somewhere else.

Scam artists
Very poor quality replacement parts. Avoid. Needed a replacement screen for Sony Xperia Z5 Compact. Initially noticed poor colour, poor brightness, and that the screen didn't fit as well as before. Also had less precise touch response. I didn't bother taking it back at the time because at least it worked. Withing days it was scratched which is something the original screen never did. Withing 3 weeks it was cracked and could no longer be used, despite me never having dropped it. Took it back to the shop and they refused refund, despite providing very poor quality replacement parts. It was also extremely expensively expensive considering the poor quality at $250.

Terrible service and rude
Totally unprofessional, rude and inconsiderate at the cairns shop...wasted my time and energy at 39 weeks pregnant to get my tablet fixed in time for hospital only to be lied to and not even looked at after a week in the shop. will never use them again nor recommend them to anyone...
Terrible
I recently had my Samsung s4 screen replaced at the world square store. Since then I have had no signal so I took the phone to a different repair shop who advised that the phone was damaged beyond repair due to a bad screen installation. The inside of the phone is bent slightly which is what is causing the signal problems. Never again will I use Mobile phone hospital. Thanks for ruining my phone!

Unethical
Worst company I have ever dealt with. Dropped my phone in for a repair of an iPhone screen. When I went to pay they told me that I could only pay cash as they had closed off their machines for the day.
10 days later the screen stops working while on Facebook. I went back and asked them to look at it. They told me that the battery was faulty and not working and had shorted the screen and therefore would not warrant their repair. They also said the charging port wasn't working.
I explained that the battery was working as the phone still ra...
Read moreng, and we could answer the phone but just couldn't see anything. They refused to accept this and as such I headed down the isle to get a 2nd opinion form another repair place on the same level. Within 2 mins they showed me that my battery worked properly but my screen was not working and that the charging port worked perfectly. They replace my screen for me and everything works fine. I then went back to Mobile Phone Hospital and explained that that the other store were able to fix the phone by just replacing the screen and they still refused to accept responsibility instead blaming us for the fault. Never use this company.Absolutely terrible
This company is horrible, replaced my Iphone 5s screen for $100 2 weeks ago then woke up 3 days ago with a crack that rendered the phone completely useless. Fair enough I probably dropped it one night and didn't realize.
So yesterday I went back to the cairns central location and replaced it again, for $120.
Not even 24 HOURS later, walking back from the lagoon I took my phone out of my bag and there is a crack near the speaker, again the sensor was completely destroyed from this crack so it wouldn't work at all. This time I was extremely ir...

Shoddy mobile phone screen repair
Very bad screen replacement work. The screen was not flush with side panels. They claim to have done numerous screen replacements of the same phone model, but most people don't check the work done or the customer service just gives a lame excuse which people just accept. I pushed for a refund, but they showed my previous screen which was damaged even more.. it was a health hazard to bring that around in my pocket. They didn't use the right careful technique (like in youtube), rather yanked it out.
They are cheaper by a little, BUT would've used a better service knowing this was the result. Hope this helps others make a better choice, than I did.. Next time, I'll use a better service with a guarantee.. heard some do provide warranties.
