MBP Battery Replacement

    Hi All,

    have a 2009 MBP, with apple care. My battery is saying it needs to be serviced and I was on to Apple and I can have it replaced. My issue is they want to take it for up to a week!
    Where is the best service provider in Dub and usually how quickly can they change a battery? Anyone have any experience with a similar issue?

    Thanks in advance...

    Changing the battery is easy. There's no reason why they couldn't do it on the spot, but they might want a day or so.

    It'd take literally 20 mins to replace a battery. All that's required is to unscrew the base, and pull out the old battery and insert the new one. Simples.

    Thanks Guys,

    I know how easy it is to change the battery, I could do it myself if Apple would send me out one, but they will not and they have said if I have them collect it it would take 2 weeks. As I am in London this week, I suggested that I go to an Apple Store and they said they would have to keep it.
    Anyone used any Apple Auth. Service providers in Dub who are good, any recommendations?

    Tanks,

    Gary

    CompuB at the bottom of Grafton St, perhaps?
