Help-Need replacement Nokia Charger (Mains)

Lady_E

I have a gorgeous Nokia 6111 (pink) which OH bought for Xmas last year. I love my phone very much as it is the the first one that I find is "logical" for me. However just recently I found I was having to charge it up daily and thenI realised that it had not been charging at all!! OH took it to work and someone ther who has a similar phone with same charger let them use the charger and then we realised that the charger had died. I am really muddled as to where i can get another one and how much I should be paying. I also need to know that the charger is the real "mc coy" and not a fake .

How much should I be paying?

Where do I go for the real deal either internet or shop ?

Hope saomeone can give some advice, as I have now resorted to my old one ugh ugh ugh !!!

any mobile phone shop (eg o2, virgin, orange, phones4u, carphone warehouse) should have them

any market stall dealing in phone stuff would have one for under a fiver

Edited to add: Take it back to the shop and get a new one, it's less than a year old.

im pretty sure warranty on accessories is only 6m, even then they wont necessarily offer a replacement!

these new nokia chargers are rubbish so many people complain about them, the my stores ones break after a week! have so many people complaining about it them

orange do them for £17.99

I never mentioned returning it under warranty. The OP can return it under the Sale Of Goods Act.

Contact Nokia directly, I know the handsets are covered for two yrs under eu laws.. might be worth asking....

Why does it have to be the 'Real McCoy'? Just buy a cheap one from ebay for a few quid, electricity is electricity, all it is is a transformer with a connector on the end!

But it isnt .......we used a non Motorola charger on OH phone and the charger melted ,hence my request for a "real" one .

Maybe - but you are forgetting this is the British aristocracy here - you don't expect to see her Ladyship charging her phone with a Tesco value charger do you?

Next you'll be wanting her to drink champagne out of a sherry glass.
