I was scammed by this shop called Edge Comms located at Boon Lay.

As I needed my phone to be repaired fast, I went into that shop to fix my phone as its the one that opened the earliest back then despite knowing their highly-jacked up price.

My Phone was having some trouble with the LCD (Split Image) as well as my on/off button. The repair costed me $110. After the repair, 10mins later my touch screen was unresponsive. It'll be unresponsive for like 5mins then on and situation. Of course, I went back to the store immediately within 30mins from the repair. the repair guy recommend me to factory reset my phone which I did. However, these did not solve the problem so I went back to the store the day after as he wasnt working the next day.

However, he refuse to help me fix the problem and instead, keep pushing me another deal. $65 for an LCD screen... Well, i just changed from the store didnt I? They probably changed a defected one with me by accident.

As Im just a student, i do not have much money for the repair but still, the shop was being just too unreasonable.
