That's what they did for me. But they didn't have any screens in stock, so they just gave me a new phone!

I will post if they are any good

The don't replace the screen, never have. They replace the phone. If you shatter the back they will replace is whilst you wait for £20.
It's worth noting you get a 90 day warranty with an Apple replacement.

Really - so they ALWAYS give you a new phone?
This can't be right. £40 for a brand new iPhone?................

It's £120 for the front panel I think. They just said they had none in stock when I went in there. Might be a lie. But then it's Apple. They couldn't possibly be lyi..... hmmm....

Fantastic point, that should have been top of the 'outright w/giffgaff' benefits.
I've been lucky enough to only need to use the Geniuses on a couple of occasions and of all the customer service I've encountered around the world, the Apple staff are top by many miles.
Good shout
Is the giffgaff bit specifically relevant as I'm looking to buy the new 5 but use it with my much cheaper virgin sim?
£129. It might not be brand new but it will look it and behave like it.
I suspect they take your old one off to some mass repair shop, refurb it to new and then it becomes a £129 swap out for someone else later.
People at work dropped theirs down the toilet, completely trashing it, and Apple swapped those out too.
Cheaper than £10 per month incl. unlimited data?!?

I took my 3gs into the apple store in Churchill square as the back has a 1" hairline crack in it, (phone works fine just cosmetic) and was told they could not replace the back cover, i would have to buy a new phone!
should i go back and speak to someone else?

Yes, i get 400 mins, more than enough for me u/l & txt and data at £6.34 per month.
I was paying £8.50 for 600 mins and u/l & txt and data and they phoned me say as i wasn't using the 600 mins they could reduce it to £6.34, but had to tie in for a 12 months.
12th September confirmed for the 'reveal'...

My quote was £40 for a new screen. Not Apple. My 3Gs must be three years old.

Virgin = The cheapest unlimited data pack available to the everyday public is 12 quid on a 12 month contract. You may get it cheaper being a longterm/loyal customer but to the everyday PAYG customer, Giffgaff will not be beaten.
Virgin Mobile:
Mobile SIM Only £12 p/m
Your tariff gives you:
150 minutes
Unlimited texts
Unlimited Mobile Web

Sweet. I'll put my iPhone on eBay & NSC Classifieds now on a 7 day listing
There is almost certainly going to be a gap of a week or two between the announcement and the release.

True but once the masses see the unveiling and launch dates are confirmed, my iPhone 4 value could possibly drop from 200 quid to 160 within those 2 weeks.
