• We were the first company in U.S. to offer dc jack repair service by mail in the year 2000, a decade later (2010) we still replace more dc jacks than anyone else in the world, and overall we replaced more dc jacks than any other company out there.  That means we have the biggest infrastructure to handle dc jack replacements
• We guarantee that all laptops are out of here by the end of the next business day after we receive them or the repair is free.  We try to get everything repaired the same day but, because of Chicago weather, sometimes we get laptops here at the end of the work day so these packages are out of here the next business day.  (Business day, because UPS only works Mon-Friday). 
• We always pay for the shipping of the laptop back to you, regardless if it was fixed or not.  That means the shipping of the laptop back to you is on us, it won't cost you anything.
• We only charge you if the system works fine after the repair,  if it does not work fine after we are done with it, there are no diagnostic fees, bench fees, or any other sort of fees for trying to fix it. 
• We specialize only in dc power jack repairs and nothing else.  As far as we know we are the only company that works exclusively on dc jack repairs and nothing else.  All others are doing this kind of repair on the side.
• We give a lifetime warranty for all dc jack repairs, as long as you are using a factory power adapter / charger.
• We fix your adapter at no extra charge (for free), if the tip of the cord on your charger / power supply / adapter is faulty then we always try to fix it at no extra charge by putting a new cord on it.  Others simply advise you to buy a new adapter.
• Our price is all inclusive with no up selling, no upgrades and no surprises.  If we can't make it work we don't charge you anything. 
• We have no fix = no charge policy, you don't pay a cent unless the laptop works fine, and we pay for the shipping back regardless of the outcome.

• We are the price setter.  That means that we set the price for the service of replacing power jacks in the U.S. we have been doing this for many years,  that  means all our competitors try to advertise a lower price for this type of repair but many of them will charge you separately for the shipping, parts and diagnostic fees and bunch of other fees in addition to the advertised repair price and many would try to up sell you something that you don't need, for example a new motherboard.  The point is: please read the fine print on our competitors web sites carefully when comparing us to others.

Any rules we should be aware of? Yes, the first one is if you don't include your AC Power Adapter with the laptop you won't get any warranty or support from us (the reasoning for this is if your adapter is faulty, it will ruin whatever repair we did on your laptop within a very short time, we fix adapters at no extra charge). Second rule is badly packaged laptops will be sent back to the owner without being worked on (the reasoning for that is: we do get many badly packaged laptops that arrive here litterally in pieces) . Make sure to wrap your laptop in at least 3 inches of bubble wrap, and put it in the box with plenty of cushion or fluffy stuff. Please note: free boxes provided by United States Postal Service provide inadequate protection for your laptop.

Are there any extra charges?  There are NEVER any extra hidden fees or charges.    If we don't fix your laptop for the price we advertise, you don't pay anything, not even for the shipping back to you.

How do we submit a payment? We prefer it if you would enclose a check made out to Applicasoft for $100. If we would be unable to fix the laptop it is easier and cheaper for us to refund a check  than refunding a credit card transaction (we can simply pack the check back with the laptop and send the package back to you).  If the return address is different from the one on the check please enclose a note that would say so.  Alternatively you can pay by credit card through Google checkout or Paypal (click the button that could be found below), after the payment please print out a receipt and send it along with the laptop. The only acceptable payment for walk in clients is cash after the repair is complete.

Turn around times? All laptops are guaranteed to be out of here by the end of the next business day after we receive your laptop.  We provide the fastest turn around time in the industry, there isn't a company out there that can match us, for the most part because we are the only company that specializes in dc jack repairs and nothing else and we are the largest supplier of jacks in U.S.. 

Legit business, reviews, guarantees?  We are a very legitimate business; we have been in business since the year 2000, performing just the dc jack replacements and nothing else. We mostly work with repeat clients such as computer shops, and laptop manufacturers that send their work to us. Since the year 2000 we accumulated 3000+ positive reviews about our company on ebay, just google "applicasoft reviews" and read the reviews, over the years clients who paid for our services through google checkout rated us 4.8/5.0 out of 250+ reviews, if you will be submitting a payment through google you would be able to read our reviews as well as write one if you wish.  Click Here to see the snapshot of our ebay reviews.   For Google checkout reviews:  Click Here to see the Google reviews snapshot

Regarding packaging your laptop: our company and our clients receive many laptops with screens / monitors damaged during the shipment. Bad packaging is the ONLY reason why that happens. It does not matter if it breaks on the way to us or on the way back to you. We use your packaging and your packaging material to ship the laptop back.  Please use plenty of bubble wrap around your laptop. No bubble wrap or not enough bubble wrap means a broken screen. Please do not put AC power adapter / power brick on top of the screen when shipping the laptop to us, put the power adapter to the side of the laptop. The point is please package your laptop VERY WELL.

Warranty? We provide a lifetime warranty on all DC jacks that we replace. If you will ever break your jack again, we will replace it at no charge. We will only replace it one more time. You are covered by the warranty for as long as you are using a factory AC power adapter, if you use any universal power adapters the warranty is void. That is the reason we ask everyone to send a factory power adapter with your laptop so that we could fix the plug on it if it is faulty, there is no charge for it.  We do not give any warranty for the DC plug  (tip of your ac adapter that goes bad) replacement since we do it for free as a courtesy.

Do you have all parts in stock? We are the largest supplier of DC jacks in U.S. we have jacks for EVERY single laptop out there. If we don't have a jack for your laptop, nobody else has it either.   

How much is the shipping usually? To send a laptop UPS GROUND it is usually about $6.50-$15.  If you ship your laptop to us we will ship the laptop back to you at our expense via UPS  If you need a laptop ASAP you can prepay the overnight shipping back to you. 

How long does it take to replace a  DC power jack on my system? Average DC jack replacement job lasts about 2 hours.  All work is done the same day since we have all of the dc jacks in stock.

What time are you open? You can bring you laptop over to Wheeling location 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. Monday-Friday, 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. Saturday (make sure to call in advance).

Do you repair or do you replace the power jack? We only replace power jacks, it is a more time consuming process than simply repairing a DC power jack but in a long run we don't have to deal with any  warranty work..

I live in Chicago land can I drop off my laptop? Yes you can drop off your laptop at the Wheeling address 6 days a week, for maps look into contact us page. Generally you would be able to pick it up within 2 hours..

I live in Chicago land can you pick up my laptop and drop it off? We no longer offer pickup and drop off service.

Do you need a password to get into my system? No, we do not need any of your passwords

Do you need my hard drive? We don't need your hard drive. We encourage everyone to keep the hard at drive home.

Do I need to send an AC adapter? Yes, to test out your system we would prefer to have your AC DC power adapter, however if you are missing an AC DC adapter we still can work on it and test out your computer using our adapters.  If your power plug adapter is broken, we will attempt to fix it or replace it at no extra charge.

Are you liable for anything that will happen with my laptop? The amount of liability is limited to the amount of money we charge you, nothing more. If you do not agree with that, please do not send the system to us. If the system gets damaged on the way to us, please file a complaint with the shipper. Make sure to package the laptop very well for the shipment.

What is the best way to pack a laptop for shipment?  Put at least two to three inches of a bubble wrap around it, put it in the box, put an AC DC adapter near by (not on top of the screen), write out a check made out to Applicasoft (or you could pay for it by credit card through Google checkout or Paypal). As soon as we get it we will work on it and send it back to you (usually within 24 hours).

Main symptoms of the bad jack? Laptop battery is not charging anymore, you have to wiggle / jiggle the plug / cable in order to make the system work. The screen flickers and becomes dim once the laptop switches from the ac power to the battery.
