Please help!! Possibly broken mobile =(

Question

i have a 6630 which i dropped in a sink full of water last night. i took it out and held it under the hand drier. i then took the battery out and the covers to dry them. when i took out the sim i snapped the peice of black plastic off that holds your sim in. the phone itself switches on but says it is in 'Offline' mode and has a large black cross through the bars that shows your signal. the sim now wont hold itself in the phone. i have tried sellotaping and blu-tacking the sim in to the phone. when i blu-tacked it in it actually asked me for my pin number which it hadn't been doing before..... but when i've typed it in it says 'General System Error' and then 'Sim Rejected'.
if anyone has any suggestions whatsoever on how i could possibly fix this i would be very appreciative if you could post on here. i have thought about taking it to a phone shop but i don't know which one to go to, don't know if you can get a replacement black piece of plastic and it's a Sunday =(
thank you for reading this and please try and help!!
thanks Andrea

Answer 1

you should be able to get a new sim holder from your nearest nokia dealer.
as for getting the phone wet,take it to your nearest nokia service centre a.s.a.p. for them to check it out.
if the phone is insured, you only have 14 days to report water damage. iv had this happen and the insurance told me 'water ingress usually kills a phone' and they write it off and give you new one.
if you take it to an authorised nokia centre and it IS a write off, they can give you written proof, making any insurance claim easier.
offline mode is just a profile that allows you to use the phone whilst not attatched to your network.
if your sim is knackererd, if you get a new sim and ring your network provider, they can transfer the number to the new sim. good luck : )
