How to Get a WINZ Quote for Phone Repairs in Christchurch

Need Help Covering the Cost of a Repair?

If you’re receiving assistance from Work and Income (WINZ), you might be able to use your WINZ Payment Card or request a quote to help cover the cost of your phone repair.

At Phone Repair NZ, we make the process quick and straightforward — so you can get your device back up and running without the stress.

How It Works

If your phone is broken or needs a replacement part, you can bring it to us for a free quote.

We’ll provide a printed or emailed WINZ repair quote that includes:

  • Your name and contact details

  • The device make and model

  • The repair type (e.g. screen replacement, battery replacement, charging issue)

  • The total cost, including parts and labour

You can then take this quote to your local Work and Income office to apply for payment assistance.

Using a WINZ Payment Card

If you already have a Payment Card from WINZ, we can process your repair instantly in-store — just like an EFTPOS transaction.

It’s simple, secure, and approved immediately through Work and Income’s system.

We’ve Worked With WINZ Clients Across Christchurch

Over the years, we’ve helped many customers through the WINZ process. Whether it’s a phone for job searching, contacting family, or staying connected, we understand how important it is to have a working device.

Our team is happy to walk you through the quote or card process — no judgement, just help.

Typical Repairs Covered

Most WINZ clients request help with:

  • Screen replacements (cracked or unresponsive screens)

  • Battery replacements

  • Charging port issues

  • Diagnostic assessments to confirm damage for insurance or WINZ support

If you’re unsure what your phone needs, we can diagnose the problem first and include that in your WINZ quote.

Fast Turnaround

Once your payment or card is approved, we can usually complete the repair within two hours for most iPhone and Samsung models.

You’ll get the same six-month warranty and customer service as every other repair.

How to Get a WINZ Quote

  1. Bring your phone to our Christchurch store.

  2. We’ll assess it and provide an itemised WINZ quote (printed or emailed).

  3. Take the quote to WINZ and request assistance.

  4. Once approved, come back — and we’ll get your repair started straight away.
