Hi all. My k500i recently decided out of the blue to stop charging. So, being under warranty, i sent it back to 02, for them to faff around for 2 weeks and not tell me that it was back in.
They have returned it to me, un repaired, claiming there is water damage. Its never been near water, but anyway, thats not the point, the 2 cables with water damage, are nowhere near the bottom of the phone, so surely have no effect on the charging? as i know this is not causing the charging problem, because the phone charging still very slightly works with both covers off the phone.
Anyway, I'll show you the picture i have recieved from 02 showing water damage.
Could that water damage, be preventing the phone from functioning?
Thanks
David

The problem im having, is its 30 miles away... And i have argued to high heaven with them on the phone, i have that picture, which looks convincing, but lame excuses has come up in several cases, this is axactly why i insured my new phone, so i can claim instead of this hassle.
