Water damage to iPhone 6

Sorry for the 'iPhone in the toilet' question however i'm not sure what to do.


I have done the requisite, rice in the cupboard trick so will see what happens, but just wanted to know what my options are if the phone is dead.


I purchased the phone at the end of March - bought outright and unlocked from Apple. If the phone doesn't work, should I take it into my local shop and explain what happened and see what they suggest? Will I just have to buy a brand new one or are there other options available to me?


Many thanks


Sarah

Sorry, but since water damage is not covered by the warranty, you'll have to pay the reduced price for a new iPhone, called the Out-of-Warranty-Service fee.


Out-of-warranty repair service
If your repair isn’t covered by Apple’s One Year Limited Warranty, AppleCare+, or AppleCare Protection Plan, your iPhone might be eligible for out-of-warranty service. For example, liquid damage isn’t covered by warranty but might be eligible for out-of-warranty service. Some damage isn’t eligible at all, for example if your device has been broken into multiple pieces. See Apple’s Repair Terms and Conditions for complete details.
