Almost flushed away your mobile? You’re not alone! The Bristish flush away mobiles worth £342million

cell phone dropped into the toilet bowl
This happened to me personally. It was few years ago that my cell phone dropped into the toilet bowl and I almost flushed it away. Well, I don’t feel like describing the “process” that how I managed to dig it out of the toilet. Of course, I did it simply for the sake of recovering my SIM card. If this has happened to you recently, then don’t be too upset as you’re not alone. You’re accompanied by at least few hundred thousands of British cell phone users a year. According to SimplySwitch.com, there are about 855,000 handsets are flushed away every year in the UK, which contribute a big amount of £342 million a year to the toilet bowl.
