My Story

My journey into phone repair started with a simple interest in tech. I began working in mobile phone recycling, learning how to test devices, check features, and understand what makes them work. That soon led me to exploring how to take phones apart, diagnose faults, then rebuild them — a skill that quickly grew into a hobby.

I started repairing phones for close friends and family. As word spread, I began buying broken handsets, refurbishing them, and reselling them on eBay and Facebook Marketplace — constantly learning with every repair. Over time, I worked for some of the UK’s biggest mobile phone retailers, gaining valuable insight into customer service, technical standards, and industry best practices.

Eventually, I made the leap to go fully independent, building First Choice Mobile into a trusted name for phone repair across Derbyshire and South Yorkshire. Today, I bring not just technical expertise but genuine passion to every repair — helping people stay connected when they need it most, at a price they can afford.
