How is it relevant. I could also take out the insurance and not break it. Then I'm 360 quid down for nothing.
Oh right, is it not a legal requirement to have car insurance now?
I'm all grown up now and look after my things, in 18 years of phone ownership, I don't think I've ever broken one, I've had one stolen (nokia 5110 with union jack cover, wtf? I wouldn't steal it....) and a few phones which have had faults and had them replaced, I've never broken one though.
Probably been a good 6 or 7 years since I had one replaced.
I have insurance through my bank, and the b*****ds have just introduced a £100 excess purely for iPhones lol.
I always thought you were gay and had just misspelled it.

For anyone interested, the outcome is as follows.
Booked a Genius appointment, got there and some guy asked me what the problem was. I explained to which he said yes they can replace it, but there is a charge. He asked me how much I'd been told, I said 140 and he said they've just recently reduced the cost to 120 quid.
Went to the station when called, explained again. She got all the phone details up, saw that it was 10 days old and she said she would see wot she could do. Came back and as a one off, they could replace the phone at no cost, but my details would be took and any further claims or problems etc that the Apple warranty doesn't cover then I would be charged.
All in all I'm pretty happy. I got extremely lucky but you've got to take your hats off to Apple for doing that for me.

when I crashed my car my iPhone went out of window which cracked the screen, I went into Apple and told the person that basically after about 35-40mins of playing music through headphones the phone gets stupidly hot and the music cuts out, so hot that it was burning my leg, they don't have 40 mins spare to test it so they gave me a new phone.........simples.
No, but you can get them fixed for a good sight less too
