Get a new one, and don't get pished and break it again.

You were up on the roof trying to get your sat dish to work and your missus was inside telling you, YEs, No, left a bit , right a bit etc. So you were talking on the dog while using both hands to move the dish and bingo.

Good luck if you're on Payg with o2, I've had a phone break through no fault of my own (there was a Samsung that was known to have a dodgy screen) within the warranty and I was f*cked off by o2.

I wouldn't hold out much hope with apple either, I spent hundred of quid on itunes and had to restore my computer , Apple let me re-download my stuff once only for my mate to stand on my laptop and I lost the lot (so I had to resort to pirating everything I had bought legally).

You've got bob hope of getting anything out of either, unless you have phone insurance you might be able to blag it, I would say you had the phone in your back pocket and sat down on it, might be believable if you're a fat f*ck.

Some sort of insurance claim perhaps?

Some unscrupulous people have even been known to go to a police station and report it lost to get a police report number for just such actions. Not that I'm suggesting anything of course, just what I've heard talk of in the pub.

Phone insurance, job done. Even if you need to take it out today and claim next week.

Hi everyone
Thank for the response, I'm on O2 pay monthly, although shouldn't think that makes a difference.

You've got bob hope of getting anything out of either, unless you have phone insurance you might be able to blag it, I would say you had the phone in your back pocket and sat down on it, might be believable if you're a fat f*ck.

Though this might be the case !! Think I'd have to gain quite a few pounds though before that claim would be believable !!

I have heard about certain 'unscrupulous people' reporting phones stolen when infact they're broken, however surely if the sims been stolen then the sim card can't be kept, got several things on the sim I'd like to keep so not sure I'd like my phone to go missing!

Not sure if I'v phone insurance or not actually, will have to check that one, would that replace the phone or give me money for the phone, if it was payed out......

As promised a couple of pics of the dead iPhone....

Haha :D ! I wish , one of my friends comments was straight away, 'has that been run over' :D Hmm, maybe thats what i should tell Apple/O2....

I used to be a manager for O2 and I can confirm you've got fuck all chance of getting that repaired or replaced under warranty. You'll be lucky if the shop staff don't laugh right in your face for asking.

Customer damage/misuse will be the line you'll get thrown back at you.

If you have mobile phone insurance, chances are you'll get fucked off at the high port as well mate.

Just buy a new one to be honest.

However, if you're near the end of your contract, then O2 Upgrades might take pity on you and let you upgrade early - worth a try. They did it for me last year, when my Samsung INNOV8 went tits up.

Good luck!!!! :D
