I initially contacted Barry for a repair on my old laptop, which he completed in a couple of hours. Unfortunately my laptop later died (my fault entirely) and Barry successfully cloned ALL my information and downloaded it onto a higher spec machine which he hunted down for me. I am more than happy with the upgrade and would highly recommend Barry Martin for his level of service, expertise and value for money.
