About a month ago, I broke my Palm Treo. I didnt have insurance, and it was obviously my fault. Took it into the sprint phone, and they gave me a refurb phone for $55 no questions asked basically. Have you tried going to the store yet?

when I break a phone i go on ebay and buy one.

Ditto: got my last phone for $30 shipped. Check for misspelled title headings. Guy wrote VX8200 Vorizon on mine (was a VX8300 Verizon). They sell for about 85-95 regularly there.

And try to sell your phone for parts. If it's a phone that is selling well right now, you might get enough for it to get another phone of ebay. Even if your phone has water damage.

Happens alot when you let the phone dry if you immediatly remove the battery.

Oh and on a side note about the att dropped call thing. A third part company actually tested this after att said it on their commercial. Sprint out of all the companies had the fewest dropped calls.

Pay $7 a month or whatever for the insurance. If you have the insurance you will get a new phone no matter what you do to it. Last time I got a new phone I went in and my antenna was a little bent. I just wanted a new antenna screwed in. It was my fault it was bent, I even told them that. They pulled a new one from under the counter, hooked it up to the computer to transfer all my data and 10 mins later I got a new phone. Have gotten like 5 new phones that way. Dropped one in the toilet, dropped one on the ground, pissed on one, etc. Got a new one each time. Been with Sprint like 9 years.
