HTC Wildfire — post sales service

Address:Bangalore, Karnataka

I own a HTC wildfire : A3333. i had spoken to the htc call centre two weeks back since my phone was not charging and on their recommendation i went to PRAMANIK MOBILE SOLUTIONS located at Indiranagar, Bangalore. On preliminary check, they told me that due to water logging my charging IC had got corroded and that was the cause of it and they quoted Rs. 3000 as the cost of replacement with no guarantee/warranty whereas the same spare online costs only 10$ ie about Rs.500 (http://www.htcrepairparts.com/htc-wildfire-g8-c-129_668.html?language=en). I asked them not to replace it and i collected my phone from them. My phone had been through the washing machine wash cycle more than 7 months back and i had blow dried and had also kept it open and not used it for about a week and used it after ensuring that it was completely dry. On receiving the phone i found out that they had forgotten to replace the screws, hence on opening the back-panel i found my rear panel accessible. i checked the panel of my cellphone and also got a second opinion from a 3rd party service centre and they concluded that there didn't seem to be any hardware issues with the IC. My boot-loader seemed to be intact and i was able to charge my phone through the fast-boot ergo my phone has software issues which the service centre was not ready to acknowledge and repair even on my insistence. earlier before i gave my phone to the service centre i was able to switch on and use my phone if the battery was fully charged, but i couldn't charge my phone(didn't try fast-boot then). now after i have received my phone neither am i able to start my phone nor can i go to the recovery. on pressing the power button my phone goes to the white HTC screen and it switches off. Even today when i call them up HTC service centre refutes my claims and insists that it's because of water logging that happened almost a year back. When i called up the HTC customer service, they gave me the address of a non-functional service centre. After sending multiple mails to the customer service, i still haven't received any response nor have received an acknowledgement from them. My phone is just a year old and just out of the warranty period. How do i get HTC to help me out and find a solution for the problem i am facing instead of making me spend my money on a non existing issue.
