Called into the shop and was told I have to pay £89.99 repairs as the screen was cracked. I was quite. surprised as my orginal complaint was that the top of the phone overheated and I heard a cracking noise. No one to date has mentioned the scar on my thumb nor contacted me from either Samsung or o2. Classy customer service! I do not have £90 nor will I continue to pay the monthly sub. Let's see how long it takes them to contact me then.

If you stop paying your monthly subscription, your account will be suspended, your phone will be cut off, you'll still owe what's left on your contract, and you'll have a default put on your credit, as @Anonymous has said. The only one you hurt by going that route is yourself. Lodging a formal complaint is your only recourse.

Samsung and o2 are not working together and I'm the loser.
I worked in customer services and this is bad service. O2 should refund the 10+ days Internet I've paid for but did not receive. Samsung should repair the phone as a goodwill gesture. I don't expect an apology from anyone for the scar I now have on my thumb. The phone NOT the battery overheated to such a degree that it cracked the screen. That is not my fault...

I do sympathise with your situation but given the facts, I don't think you have any chance of a free repair.
You only option is to claim off any insurance you may have or buy a new phone.
Sorry about your thumb too. Hope it heals OK.

Hi @Anonymous I am a bit confused here. I read back your previous thread and you made no mention of a cracked screen? http://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Discussions-Feedback/Samsung-phone-overheated-and-burned-my-hand/td-p/962199
In fact you said the phone wasn't charging but burnt your hand when you picked it up. When did the screen crack?

I'm guessing no screen cracking was noticed. ...
