Mobile Phone

On friday morning at about 4am i got up to go to the loo and thought i would take the mobile and see what time it was as it has a big clock on it and i would not wake anne as i would not need to put the light on.
BIG mistake as i walked into the bathroom i banged my toe on the scales and jumped my mobile jumped out of my hand right down the loo
so i put the light on and fished it out it was in a leather case but dripping wet .
so i took it apart and left it on the top of telly to dry out thinking new mobile ,i have just put it all back togeather and its still working yipee

Re: Mobile Phone

That was very lucky. I saw something on the "Gadget Show" about this. They said that most mobiles will still work if left to dry naturally & hadn't been in the water for too long.

They really are hard to kill. I once had to leave mine in a pan of water for 3 days before it completely died.

Think i'd better explain.

I needed a new phone, so i thought i claim on the insurance. Unfortunately, after reading through the small print i realised that the best way (only) was to claim for water damage. I soaked it in water so that i couldn't be repaired.

I had a Motorola Star Tac flip phone, these had become obsolete, so they had to give me vouchers for a new model.



Always read the small print when getting insurance

3 weeks without a phone, but it was worth it.

If that's the case, I bet he's glad he didn't hit the 'send picture to all my contacts' list before it dropped in the loo
