Anyone have an old iPhone they want to shift on, my son has broken his phone (again) and still in contract so just looking for an iPhone to get him to the end of his contract
Ideally an old iPhone 7 or similar and I don’t care if it has battery issues or a broken screen as I can easily fix that as long as it’s working and the cheaper the better (as I’m making him pay for it and hopefully he will stop breaking the bloody things !)
 
Good luck with that approach. I got my son an iPhone XR on an 18 month contract for his birthday and Xmas present and he has broken it too in the first 6 months! Front and back smashed, apparently it’s the phones fault! His room reminds me of the evil kid in toy story where the toys get destroyed. I now keep a connection box of his old headphones, Xbox controllers, leads etc for the tip and he spends most of his money replacing broken things, he hasn’t learnt yet though

Sounds familiar
Now theres an idea for a new thread, 'how messy is your childs room today' or maybe 'what have you found/is growing in your childs room today'

I dont mind things getting broken its when they wave it at you and declare its broken and expect you to click your fingers and presto .....
Thankfully my oldest has got a part time shop job he does around school so he earns a bit, i just want him to contribute something so he knows if he breaks it again he will have to pay again (we can but try)

It never stops, my 39 year old daughter still arrives on the doorstep announcing that her car has suddenly and mysteriously broken!
 
If you find it and it works could I have it please? My iPhone 4 is on its last legs and due an upgrade.
Thanks
I know it works. It was replaced a couple of months before an upgrade as I dropped the old one in a swimming pool. Will pm you when I've dug it out and charged it.

I’ve got a 34 year old daughter who asked me to check her car over before it’s MOT, both front tyres were clearly illegal as so badly worn. She claims she checks them regularly! Wouldn’t be so bad but her fiance is a copper and she works for the Police!

Brilliant idea. That made me chuckle so much!!!
 
I'm sure the wife has a 6S or similar she no longer needs (if you haven't already sourced one)
