You could probably get a phone here for $25 if you check here often. Either that, or go to your local kijiji and look for unlocked, or Rogers, GSM phones. I seriously doubt it would be economically viable to get the old phone repaired.

It's up to you, of course. I would get another phone. The main thing is not letting your account expire.

I went camping this summer, took my phone. It got wet it seems. I noticed AFTER I came back and bought some more air time.

I went to one phone repair place and they said it costs $25 just to 'send it' to see what needs to be fixed. I got the phone with the promo last christmas. Nokia, no number on it; its grey with a flip top.

What should I do? Do I wait for another promo? Do I buy the Nokia on sale right now at 7-11? The air time has to be added within 90 days of purchasing it.

Thanks.
