N70 Trouble!!

I am still on a contract for 18 months for the Nokia N70, paying a high tariff(£40 per month) !! The phone is always giving me some problems or the other and I would like to get a NEW phone from them, whilst on the contractual period.
I know this is a bit cheeky, Is there any excuses to put through to Nokia so that they can sent me a new one!!

    By any means possible? The only way I can think of doing this whilst still in the contract is to buy either a PAYG mobile and swap the sim card over, or buy a phone from EBay thats either unlocked or locked to your provider.

    I doubt they'll give you a new phone whilst still in contract. The trouble with 18 month contracts is that the phone inevitably dies before the contract is up!
