Winter Storm “Pax” – it can potentially affect all of us.

Hi there friends-

FedEx called ahead and picked up a little early last night from us here at Mission Repair– and it seemed a little odd because the winter weather here in Kansas City is moving out and will start warming up tomorrow and the rest of the week.

Well, it finally made sense when I realized that it was their main Memphis hub that was really the cause for concern- and when I look at the weather online I can see that if you live in the South, now is the time to prepare for another disruptive, potentially crippling winter storm. Winter Storm Pax will bring a long swath of ice and snow across the South through midweek, and the ice may accumulate enough in some areas to knock out power for thousands of people and litter roads with fallen tree limbs and downed wires. Travel will become difficult, if not impossible, in the hardest-hit areas.

As we know all to well here at Mission Repair, when a city or region shuts down, it can cause a wide spread ripple effect of slowdowns, shutdown, traffic nightmares and possibly worse.

We understand, and we sympathize. We are doing our best here at Mission Repair to get devices repaired fast and get them shipped back out- especially to our customers that live in the path of the storm. We know that having your phone back in your hand during a weather emergency might be a comfort…that along with an extra pair of gloves and a beanie hat!

In any case, if you’re in the South hang tights friends – it’ll pass soon and I promise you’ll be back to warmer weather before you know it. Stay safe…

Take care, Ryan

iPhone 4 and 4S Repairs: More Than Just Screens!

Hello M:R Nation –

The iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S are some of the most popular smartphones ever unleashed onto the public. The sales numbers alone on these devices could fund a small country for a couple of years. Something even more impressive is the amount of people that have deceived to hold on to their iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S, even after the newer models have been released. I have to admit, I am not one of those people. I didn’t really learn my lesson until the iPhone 5. I am proud to say that I have stuck with it and have not upgraded to the iPhone 5S!

With so many folks holding strong to their iPhone 4 and 4S, you can imagine the damage that can be caused overtime by just living your life. A drop here and a bump there can really wear down your phone. Not to mention the moving parts in your device will naturally go kaput over time. When I say “Moving parts” I mean the things that you interact with on your iPhone that give you a reaction… Like your home button, power button, vibrate switch, volume buttons. Those are all mechanical input components that over time will unfortunately fail due to normal use.

From headphone jack to loud speaker repair, we have what you need to get your iPhone back up and running like normal!

Open Till 7PM!

Hello M:R Nation –

Starting yesterday we decided to keep our doors open until 7PM! This is huge news for those of you that have to work until 5PM and are unable to make it across town to either pick up your already repaired device or drop off a newly broken iPad, smartphone or computer. We always hated locking the door at 6:00pm. It just seemed an awkward time and we would often get someone zooming into our parking lot at the last second. So as to not rush you and put you at risk of receiving a speeding ticket, the 7:00PM closing time was born!

This means an extra hour to get that iPad Mini repaired! Or have your Chromebook diagnosed. This means you won’t have to go all night without your iPhone because you were too late to pick it up! I get it, I use my iPhone as my alarm clock as well and I most certainly wouldn’t make it to work on time without it!

These new hours will not only benefit out local customers! We will be answering our phones until 7PM! That means, if you need to place a new repair order or have questions about a current repair, we will be here for you as well!

So to recap: Mission Repair is now open from 8am-7PM Monday-Friday!

Cheers, Troy
