GuruAid Reviews Summary

The company has garnered a mixed reputation, with some customers praising the quality and thoroughness of technical support, highlighting positive experiences with knowledgeable and courteous technicians. However, numerous negative reviews point to significant concerns regarding deceptive practices, such as misrepresenting affiliations with well-known tech brands and difficulties in obtaining refunds. Customers frequently report long wait times, inadequate service, and aggressive upselling tactics. Overall, while there are satisfied customers who appreciate the support, a substantial number express distrust and dissatisfaction, indicating a need for improved transparency and customer service practices.

This company is a piece of Sh-t. The only thing they are competent at is lying and stealing your money! This company is the lowest form of competence, lower than whale sh-t and that lays on the bottom of the ocean! If you really want pain and suffering take a hammer and hit yourself in the head.

From beginning to end my representatives were polite, efficient, professional, and effective. I highly recommend Guruaid.com. Amit Pawar was the same.

I have used the services provided by this site on three occasions and have been very satisfied all three times. The staff is patient, polite, and thorough. They have even initiated follow-up to make sure things were okay. My subscription allows me access to them 24 hours a day, seven days a week, so I don't have to disrupt my office or routine to carry my computer to a remote technician. I would recommend them without reservation to anyone. R. Donnell in Florida.

Excellent service
March 27, 2013

Excellent service. All the reps are very, very patient and helpful. What I especially like is the follow-up. Once the chat is finished, they don't just disappear, but call back in a few days to see how things are going. Great customer service in a time when that is not so common.
