My w 380i phone, which I had bought for my dad just conked off about a week ago. The phone was a little over a year old and had already been to the customer service a couple of times due to signal related issues.
When taken to the customer care center they informed by father that repair would cost anywhere between the region of 5k, totally not worth it considering the price of the phone.
My father is probably the most careful person in the world so far as his electronics are concerned and there has been absolutely no rough treatment whatsoever. It is just shocking that a phone from a reputed company should pack up in this manner, strategically after the expiry of the warranty period.
I want SE to repair this phone without cost of parts, atleast, if not free period.
