The WiFi, of course, now worked, he told me. They are designed to mess around with the internal workings of the Operating System. He also told me the inbuilt Apple Disk Utility was “useless”.Īs far as I am aware, none of the four non-Apple programs he installed are designed to specifically and solely target a WiFi problem.

Plus MalwareBytes – which he only told me about after I queried it. Without telling me in advance and without asking my permission, while I was out of the room, he added four programs to my computer which he claimed would stabilise my computer and which cost £95 – so total price £150. On arrival, he said he had meant to quote his normal £80 but would do it for the £55. He quoted £55 as an estimate.Ī simple problem. Via them, I was approached by a guy called Jon Draper of Ace Computer Services who, again, sounded plausible. I could not solve the problem – I tried all the normal things – so I succumbed to getting a repair man in via what seemed to be a safe website – The iMac was working perfectly well otherwise there was just a problem getting online via WiFi. So it was not a WiFi signal problem it was an iMac problem. I found I could not access WiFi on my Apple iMac although, on the same desk in the same room, my iPad and iPhone COULD access the WiFi.

It is embarrassing to admit, but, one day couple of weeks ago… Only embark on it if you want to share my trauma… Though I do think the piece builds to a fairly strong climax – not written by me but by one remarkably plain-speaking Alan Evans… At the start, though, this is me…
