SOOO sad

I dropped my iPhone on the kitchen floor last night and cracked the screen.  The screen is still there and I can use it, but it looks like a photo negative.  So weird.  I am going to go to Verizon today during lunch and see what I can do.  I hope I don't have to pay $600 for a replacement!!!  Did this ever happen to anyone??  I'm sooooooo sad!!!!!

Ugh I'm so clumsy :(

 

Re: SOOO sad

  • Yes it happened to my Nephew. He had a protection plan (with At&T) and was up for an upgrade phone too. He received a new I Phone.  Hope you get to do the same.

  • now you can get a droid!  haha kidding - yeah phones suck - be really sweet and play the poor me and see what you can get out of the guy... i always insure my phone as sh*t always seems to happen!

    the other advice i can give you - is that if verizon isn't cooperative and you are going to have to pay outright for a new one, go with best buy - they have great protection plans (lil pricer at $10 vs $5/month w/ att) but no deductible - and they have a buy back program where you can usually get more than what you pay for the phone in a year to 18 months!  no joke!

    good luck! 

    edit - hey this is my 1000th post!  LOL  thx Ali!

    WOW so glad I could be part of this enormous milestone :)

    That's good to know about Best Buy - thank you!!!  I don't have insurance on the phone, and I'm not prepared to pay $600 for a new one.  But how can I live without it???  Going to go to the mall soon, and see what happens!!!!!!!

    ARGH

  • That blows!  Hopefully you get someone nice enough to cut you a deal.  I haven't gotten the protection on my phone yet but will once baby is old enough to get his hands on it.

    Good luck!

  • Ok update!  I signed up for insurance and they are letting me use it retroactively.  I have to use the broken phone for a few days until I get a replacement.  It works, it's just really hard to see the screen.  It'll cost me $160 for replacement, not bad.

    WHEW!

    Yes, Melissa (and others with little ones or expecting little ones) - get the insurance.  You never know!! 

  • Yay that you could get it replaced!!  Do you have a case on it?  I have an Otterbox case on my iPhone and its great!  Kind of bulky, but if it saves me a cracked screen I'll put up with it!

    Here is the case for the iPhone 4.

  • Ah yes, the Otterbox.  Everyone at work has them, I'm going to have to get one.  My case is hard, so no cushion against crashes. 
  • Phew, that's great that you didn't have to buy a new phone! 

    I'm thinking I should get insurance too, I just dropped my phone down 2 flights of concrete stairs. . . and got really lucky because it only suffered a minor scratch on the plastic shell. But next time I KNOW I won't be as lucky!
