Once we look at a unit we have a minimum charge which is to cover engineers' time and any parts used to attempt to repair the unit. Some repairs have a higher minimum charge due to the time we spend trying to fix the unit - e.g. liquid damage.

What is this "minimum charge"?
This charge covers our engineers' time to diagnose and attempt to repair the faults with your Mobile Phone. The minimum charge becomes due when either:
- The Mobile Phone is "beyond economical repair" (BER) - this means it would be cheaper to buy a new Mobile Phone than repair the damaged one
- We need to re-quote the repair and you refuse the re-quoted price.
In most cases we will waive the minimum charge if you allow us to keep the unit for spare parts (i.e. we can recover our cost by using parts of your unit that still function to repair other units).
