The shop where you bought it would be the best. And if they cant solve it they will then probably refer you to the NSC

My personal oppinion. O2

Go in and ask for them to check it out, and give you another N95 replacement whilst it's away.

I had bad experiance with my Nokia centre.

If it's less than 6 months old, then you don't have to prove that the fault existed since purchase. O2 have to prove that it didn't. They then ought to exchange the phone. If they baulk at that then just casually mention Sale of Goods Act and Trading Standards and say that you need to check out your consumer rights.

However, it still may be quicker, and better, to use a service centre if you have one local.

I don't think o2 give out phones for you to use whilst yours is sent away,as that is what they do.

I'd take it to the NSC first.

Seems we're pretty much split on this one, we'll agree to disagree. ;)
