Carphone Warehouse

After many years of procrastinating, in December last year I finally decided to get my first smartphone. I have to admit that the thought of having a phone with no buttons kinda made me feel a bit barfy (still does if I’m honest!).
Anyway, I chose my phone and set out to Carphone Warehouse as they had the best deal. 5 mins in store and I was done.
Roll forward a few months and I wake up one day and my phone doesn’t switch on! I experienced a horrifying dose of reality when I realised I felt completely disconnected — apparently once you go smartphone you’re either plugged in or barely exist.
So I trotted straight back in to the store on Argyle St. They were great — my phone was fixed within an hour, with no hassle and no charge due to manufacturers warranty. I was happily on my way with a warning that this happens all the time…
And it has — power button has been wonky for a few days so I went in again today. My experience was exactly as before — staff were pleasant and fast (and the other staff doing sales seemed very informative and not particularly pushy).
An hour later and I’m a happy dude again :)
