Re: Microsoft Techs

If I was giving my computer to someone to repair who claimed to have qualifications and was doing it as a living I'd expect them to have some sort of insurance to cover it in case he screws it up or damages my machine in some way.

I don't know much about liability insurance for computer engineers but I'm pretty sure they would only cover someone who was qualified. So if he was lying about being qualified but had years of experience I wouldn't be 100% certain I'd get my computer back in one piece.

If he had insurance and was qualified but not to Microsoft level I'd still not trust him due to such a lack of honesty. If someone has to lie about their qualifications to get work you have to wonder why they're not able to rely on word-of-mouth.

Each to their own but if he turns out not to be Microsoft qualified I'd steer well clear.
