Another bad Cell C experience

I have a contract with Cell C and was sold a Huawei P9 Lite as part of the contract. The phone was replaced in December 2017 with another similar phone after the original phone stopped working. The new phone also stopped working on Monday. I contacted Cell C and was told that the warranty had expired and I was now liable for all costs incurred when they send it in to their repair centre. Cell C should repair the phone as it was new in December. From the CPA Imp**** warranty of quality 56.
