Mobile phone repair service comes to you

The last time I needed a mobile phone repaired, I found a shop that would do the work while I waited. But when I arrived, I was told that the technician had been called away and would return in a couple of hours. By the time I returned and got the work done, I had blown about four hours of  a busy day.

If only I could have summoned Screen Fix Brisbane. It’s a service that makes house calls to fix iPhones and Samsung handsets. It’s like a pizza delivery service, but for your phone.

When you schedule a service call, a technician will arrive at the appointed time at your home, your office, a favorite cafe or some other mutually agreeable location. You get to watch television or have a latte while your phone gets fixed.

Most repairs will take about a half an hour and come with a two-year warranty on the work.

What a civilized idea. I’ve always said there's a lot we can learn from the Aussies.

If you’re in Brisbane - or you just want to see an innovative service at work - check out the video below and visit the Screen Fix Brisbane website. You can also follow them @screenfixbris on Twitter.
