    No, I don't think you do.

    You are entitled to a whole new handset on the third repair, I believe, but anything above that would be dependant on three agreeing - you could offer to pay the difference between the phones worth now (IE what 3 charge for it on the website now, not what you paid for it, as it is a year old) and the model you want but they don't have to agree.
