I live in Canada. There are Microsoft stores in 3 provinces. The closest one to me is 1600+ km away, I don't have the option of going to a "different Microsoft store". Piece of crap.

My Surface Pro 3 has died after two years, I've tried all the 'wake-up' fixes, still nothing. Very unhappy if this needs to be replaced, it seems a lot of money for two years use. Can anyone help or suggest a reasonable repair service in Central London?

2018-12-12T06:21:15+00:00 Well... THANK YOU...... mine has been sitting dead in my drawer for 6 months. Tried this and it worked first try!!! Microsoft wanted $599 to fix this but all my files would be gone! Well atleast i can transfer all my files into my macbook now ;)
What i did was to do the 'power and volume trick' while pulling the unit inwards at 45 degrees angle... with type cover intact. I guess that was what other users meant by 'bending'. However it worked for me. My SP3 is working fine now and I'm so relieved! Do try that. It is such a waste to keep your surface in the drawer.
