Samsung GT-E1050

After reading the MyBroadband article on cheap phones: http://mybroadband.co.za/news/cellular/46476-cheap-cellphones-and-even-cheaper-starter-packs.html

I decided to go and get an MTN Samsung GT-E1050, MTN at Canal Walk said they don't have any and that I should try Edgars across the way. So I went there and they had so I got the phone there.

Now looking through the phone I'm disappointed to find out that it doesn't have the FM Radio function that it was advertised as having.
I'm quite upset as this was one of the reasons I got this phone over other phones in the same price bracket.

I have emailed Edgars, Samsung and MTN regarding the issue... hopefully at least one of them replies to my complaint.

Odd... the official spec also mentions that is does have FM Radio. Take it back and ask them to show you where the Radio function is?

Edgars replied to say I can bring the phone back within 7 working days...
Problem is I want to keep the phone as I have already put contact numbers, messages, etc on but I just want the FM Radio function...
Maybe they'll swop it for a better phone that has the function? But then I might have to pay in...

Anyone know anything about the CPA that may help in my case?
