iPhone Repair

Can anyone recommend somewhere cheap, reliable and local to replace a cracked iPhone screen? The best I can find is £24.99 but they're based in Ilford. Ideally the same price but in the Bexleyheath or Orpington area would ideal.

    I can get you the number of a guy who lives in Blackfen who does it if you like, possibly cheaper than that too

    Someone told me apple will fix your item just the once for free. I've been meaning to go in there and find out if it's true but haven't got round to doing it.

    Not sure about screens but I took my iphone into the Apple Store with a dodgy battery and they simply replaced the whole phone, then and there. I didn't even buy it from them!

    Update: Apple charge £120 to simply replace your iPhone. I chose to go to a nice local shopkeeper in Bexleyheath who has a mobile phone sales/repair desk (next to Quicksilver in the Broadway) who changed the screen for £25. Very pleased with it and highly recommend. He also repaired it (as my teenage daughter broke the internals as well as the screen!) AND unlocked it for me for an extra £30. As good as new!

    They are still there. Doubt they'd be very cheap though.
