I tried getting it fixed. It was no use. I was so disappointed - not because I'd lost all of my contacts, but because in my eyes, it's the best phone you can get, and I'd only had it 8 months! The only way of getting my precious iPhone back was to pay another £630 for a new one... But then I thought 'At the end of the day, it's just a phone.' - people managed to survive in the sixties without mobiles, and the sixties lo
