  • The plaintiff says she brought her phone to the defendant to repair a cracked screen, but it didn’t fit right. She says the defendant told her the phone was bent. When she asked for a refund, he told her he would charge a 30 percent “restocking fee,” so she’s suing. The defendant says he did what he could with the damaged phone and claims he offered to install a new frame, but the plaintiff refused.

At least once they do remove screen call and advise, but the restocking fee is ridiculous. it costs them nothing

    I worked on these phones before. There is a screen that goes on top, and a rectangular metal frame that goes inside. On her phone, both were damaged.
    The defendant replaces the outer screen and charged her $140 for it. She came back, because the frame needed replacing as well. The defendant offered to fix it, just for the cost of the frame $20. She refused, and got a replacement phone instead from her insurance for $99 .
    Now she wants the money back for the screen, because she got another phone, and doesn’t need this one anymore.
    Defendant says fine , but we’ll keep 20% , $28 for the past labor.
    I don’t think the defendant did anything wrong. The right judgement would have been for her to pay $20 for a new frame. Not the defendant being yelled at , and the plaintiff getting a free screen.

      no because he didn't say anything up front and didn't fix the phone correctly and let her walk away with a phone not properly fixed and then when she came back he wanted her to pay more money to fix it properly. This was so he had her over a barrel and got at least the $140 which the Judge said earlier. Had he done the right thing and either knowing this was a possibility and pulled the screen off and check while she was there or at the time when they pull it off, rang her and said "we have found the frame underneath is also bent, you can either pay another $25 to replace the frame or take it back as is for no cost. He chose to say nothing when she came back to pick up the phone and charge her for an incomplete job, so when she came back either way he still had the $140.00. It was the way it was done regardless of the frame that was the fraud

      3. A judge controls the testimony by asking questions and will keep the litigants on track, same as a cross examine attorney will in a court.
      4. Judge has info on the case before litigants come before her so she has an idea of what happened already via their complaint and response. They have all the time in the world to state their case at that time.
      5. Judge doesn’t have time for BS, lies, deflection, non answers or someone’s life story if it’s not relevant to the case.

      This is only a good deal if your phone is less than a year or two old and the insurance has no deductible. Verizon insurance for an iPhone always has a deductible. By the time your phone hits two years old, the cost of the deductible is going to be more expensive than the cost of a refurbished phone, so you’re paying insurance for nothing.

      True, but i think before they put the new screen on they should contact the customer letting them know there was damage under the screen. One problem is customer goes in and wants a new screen because they clearly know it's broken and company only fixes that. You can't expect the customer to know the inners of a phone and understand that more may need to be fixed. Places like that need to be more clear on what may need to be fix. They get you pay and then try to get more because if you knew the total to fix it right they may not get the business.

    The judge is not listening to the guy. I got it. It is very simple. The inside frame that is under the screen is bent. He wouldn't know that until he removed the broken screen and attempted to install the new screen. So he tells her the inside frame is bent and it will cost an extra 25.00 to replace it but you owe us for the new screen and labor first. But we will not charge you labor to install the new frame if you wish to replace it for the 25.00 dollars. It's like having a car repaired and in doing so the repair shop finds additional issues as the are fixing the original issue. Are they going to fix the additional issues that they discovered while repairing your car? The answer is no they are going to charge you if you opt to fix the newly discovered issue. She wants the whole repair plus new frame for 0 dollars.

    I do not think Judge Milian was fair this time. The lady took in her phone 2 repair the "screen..." That repair costs $140. When they determined the frame was bent, they told her it would cost an additional $25 that she did not want 2 pay...She wanted another new screen. So he told her he could do that, but it would not fix the complaint she had and there would be an additional restocking fee...I think the judge failed 2 see that this lady was really the one being unreasonable. He charges $140 for a screen change. If upon opening it up you determine there is frame damage, why should that repair cost be included in the original quote? I get what the judge is saying in that he should have called her and said," we opened the phone and there is also frame damage. I am concerned that if we do not fix this as well, the screen is not going 2 fit right. It will be an additional $25, did you want us 2 go ahead and add that service?" Then if she refused, it is 100% on her...

      Yes I do agree with you but I also think the repair shop was in the wrong too. They should have her the ultimatum.
      Pay the extra to fix the frame and replace the screen or well refund you everything but the labor we've already incured tearing the phone down and you can have it done somewhere else thus saving them from liability.
      Or at least had her sign a waiver stating she knows the frame is messed up but is refusing to pay meaning that screen repair will not be to complete perfection and she relinquishes her rights to sue the company later.
      It's no different then having a bent brake rotor. You can still use it but it won't work properly. The shop has to make sure they aren't liable for future damages and lawsuits

      @@NyxHunter the problem is, until they remove the screen 2 find the problematic frame, they don't know it is there. At that point they can not place the broken screen BACK on. The screen needed 2 be replaced either way, but the frame was bend as well and she didn't want 2 pay the additional $25. Their ONLY option was 2 replace the screen and leave her with the bent phone if she didn't want 2 replace the frame. So in doing THAT work, they were entitled 2 the $140. They DID that actual work just as they had quoted and should have been paid for it. It wasn't fair that they did the labor for the job, provided the screen and got no pay for it.

      @@giondennis6808 yeah. I do feel bad but they didn't really do a good job of explaining themselves both to the client or the judge.
      They should have told the client hey because of how you broke the screen there may be hidden damages we can't quote yet.
      And they should have told the judge that because the original screen was cracked by the same incident that bent the frame they matched and thus hid the frame damage till it was opened up and that their initial price was only based on damage they could see. (Same with a car accident. The repair shop is only gonna quote what they can see and if they find more they call for permission) Which is what he was trying to say when he said that they only fix what the customer reports to them. Just didn't do well. He knew what he meant just wasn't able to speak it in a manner the judge could understand as someone who doesn't do phone repair.
      Personally the technician should have been in court to explain exactly what was wrong Preferably with pictures from the repair since you should always document and cover your ass.
      I will admit though that there is a serious problem with phone repair shops scamming customers so Judge wasn't wrong to assume this was just a ploy. They failed to persuade her otherwise.
      I chock this one up to a bad communicating defendent. Id wager if he'd had a few pictures showing the frame damage and how it would be hidden by the og screen and effect the new one it'd be a different story. Or even if he'd just used an analogy to a car accident since they have a lot of similarities with hidden repair costs and unknown damages.
      Judges are still people too so sometimes a rulling isn't perfect.

    they make these phones hard as hell to repair... and they make them with crap batteries so you have to replace them after 3 years anyways, no matter how good you take care of it.
    This is pretty much common knowledge. And getting something like that repaired is a Risk, you're taking a gamble.... 150$ is a lot less than a brand new phone for 800$+
    But its never gonna be perfect again.
    I spent $200 with best buy's crap geek squad to try and fix a $1600 laptop, it was a gamble, but it didn't pay out. They took it apart, but the motherboard was fried because I used a cheap $10 "universal" charging cable that pushed too much power into it too fast! And the cost of the parts to rebuild it, +their hourly rate to work on it, + + + tl'dr: would've cost More than just buying a New one.
    So maybe this guy's problem is saying he'll Fix it for $140. When really he should say he'll Look at it, and replace the screen for $140.
    But like any problem, once you start working on it, you find More problems, and that Costs More to fix.

I will say that at this point the battery is gone, but other than that it is fine. I had gotten a S9 when the updates stopped working, but I had to get a S20 when my carrier switched to using only 5G a couple months ago. All of my Samsung devices work just fine. Other than the super old S5's battery there are no problems.

    Judge Milian is annoying, over the top, rude and cuts people off when they're answering a question she asks. However, all this man had to say was there's no guarantee this will be a simple replacement until he sees what's going on underneath. The deposit for him to work on it is non-refundable. if something that costs more than the quote comes up he will call her and let her decide if she wants to pay him to fix it. Instead he knew there was more wrong than he quoted her, didn't tell her until after he half way fixed it, then tried to charge her for something she didn't agree to.

He is saying the price to replace the screen was 140, he didn't know her frame was broken and they didn't discuss replacing the frame, they discuss replacing the the crystal only.

They agreed to replace her screen knowing full well that it wouldn’t sit flush on the phone. They’ll often fix a broken screen knowing that the hardware for the phone itself is damaged and so the device won’t function properly. If they’d run on an ethical business model, people would trust them more.

    Judge was totally wrong on this case. The frame could not be seen to know if it was bent or not. She asked for screen to be replaced. It was. If she wanted a frame to she should have paid for it. Then she makes an insurance claim gets new phone, decided to sue for screen replacement, wins gets $140 back and keeps the screen too. How is that right??

    I think she was wrong in this case because sometimes there are hidden problems which arent visible immediately

    Why doesn’t the judge just listen. She asks questions and then cuts him off mid answer. the frame was bent, she asked for just a screen replacement, if she wants the screen to fit well pay to fix your frame too.

    I don't think the judge was fair in this case. New problems or damaged might come up as you start the repair that was not included in the quote given at the beginning

    This is one of a few cases where the judge is absolutely wrong. The inside frame is not seen from the outside and she questioned. Why didn't he open the phone right away. Many repair places do not work on the phone that was just turned in within the same minute. Often times they have to wait for the technician to finish all the other repair work before the current customer before they open the phone. There are many customers who will accept a working phone that may have a small defect if it is considered cosmetic or very minor. I am wondering why she questions the business owner rather than questioning the customer on why he left the day he got the phone instead of saying something right away. Obviously it was well enough for him to take a quick look at it. See that it is working and then leave whether or not the business owner mentioned it the day he picked it up or the next day it was brought back is irrelevant. The repair technician's solution of replacing the frame would have been offered and the cost would be extra.
    It seems like the judge had a personal experience with a phone repair person so she refused to let this guy explain things properly. He was explaining that the inside was bent and she kept immediately cutting him off saying why didn't you notice it at the beginning and why didn't you open it right away. The guy is an obvious scammer who admits he did not even use the insurance right away for whatever silly reason and also he was trying to make the business guy pay the insurance money. If someone gives the technician a chance to fix the problem but then they have reservations about an extra charge. It is reasonable to get a refund minus the restocking fee. The technician needs to get paid something for his or her time.
    The judge stated that the initial cost should be held no matter what when the guy did not even get a chance to look at it. That is like taking your car to an honest mechanic who ends up finding that there are more issues than the initially thought.
