where to get an iPhone screen replaced?

wba31

Like a moron I've dropped my iPhone on my tiled kitchen floor, and smashed the screen. If i go to Apple I will need to fork out £130 for a replacement handset, is there anywhere I can go to replace the screen for cheaper?

A few other people have recommended this shop without giving me their name/website. I have emailed them and check the quote out (and work out whether it's worth paying or waiting 2 weeks and claiming on my bank insurance for £25)

Is your iPhone still within warranty? I ask because if you go ahead with a third party replacement of the screen, Apple wont touch it with a bargepole for anything else that may go wrong with it - I know this from experience!

Go to any independent phone shop, they will either do it or know someone who can

I've used them before and they've always been quick, reliable and honest.
I had an iPod 2G that I couldn't fix so took it into them. The problem was unfixable long-term (in terms of cost anyway) but they provided a workaround that lasted long enough (a couple of months) for my needs, they didn't try to lie about a short term fix and they only charged me a couple of quid instead of the full hour or so labour involved.

ETA: They're in Erdington, just off Six Ways, a few shops down from the British Heart Foundation.
