Default What to do when your phone fucks up..?

Ok basically, my phone got wet (didn't fall in a toilet or anything though) and now it isn't turning on. The bastard.
So I've cleaned out as many parts as i can and stuff, but what else can I do? I know it happens to many phones (mines is a nokia 3220) but this time seems to have buggered it.

p.s does anyone know if I can like claim anything or ask for a repair or some shit - I'm with orange. I refue to buy a new phone.

Danke.

You should have tried to dry it out, on the top of a radiator or such like. If you pay for insurance then orange will replace the phone within 24 hours.

i broke my phone. o2 refused to repair it for me because i hadn't kept the receipt. as long's you've kept the receipt you'll be okay. but otherwise, it costs shitloads to get it fixed and you may as well buy a new one

3220's are bastards - I spilled some Jagermeister into mine and it was not at all grateful and has never been the same since.
