Hi

I have a mobile phone insurance claim going through at the minute for my htc magic.

it is beyone repair but LSG have said that they don't have any in stock and will contact me with suitable replacement options next week.

What I really want is an iphone again but lsg don't allow you to put money towards a phone if you see what i mean.

I think i'm going to hold out for a cash settlement, but how much could i expect?
Lead me not into temptation, I can find the way myself.

wins - peroni bottle opener, peroni bowl, peroni coastersx2 and a vodkat cocktail kit,
would love to win something 'proper'!!

    Not a huge amount - even selling a Magic to Mazuma or someone like that - the best you can hope for is about £90

    mazuma offer low amounts on every phone though. lsg say that they will give enough cash for me to buy a brand new htc magic if required.

    Not just Mazuma...been looking to sell my Magic on, have checked using the price comparison tool on MSE, and all the prices for the Magic are much of a muchness - My 2 year old N95 8GB is worth more! Unfortunately, it's just not a very valued phone.

    Just wait for LSG's response. They may even offer you the next model up HTC Hero or Legend, whatever they have available. You can then consider selling it on afterwards which would probably fetch more than the Magic does.
