Keep Away From Overpriced Phone Insurance Policies

By Tina Surewellson


If you have a mobile phone, especially if it is expensive, you should look into purchasing mobile phone insurance. Believe it or not, this coverage, just like auto insurance, could save you a great deal of money. In the paragraphs below, we are going to tell you more about this coverage and why you should always have this coverage on your device.

You do not need to take the policy out with your provider. There are now many third-party companies that are jumping at the chance to offer lower rate insurance. Even banks are jumping at the chance by offering different range of bank accounts that can offer the insurance. These will usually offer you more than you would need to pay each month and are well worth the consideration if you genuinely need the extras.

You will need to look into the cost of your device and the cost of the coverage as well. You should always put coverage on the device, because you never know when something could happen to it, especially if you have an expensive gadget.

Of course, in order to get the coverage on this device, you may have to put down a payment. This is normal, even car insurance companies require this. The down payment will vary, it all depends on the company you turn to. Many times, the down payment is not that high, since you are just covering a gadget.

The terms and conditions will let you know what is or is not covered in the policy and this is something that you should read before you start spending your money. This is very important if you have a habit of unlocking your gadget from your provider, which invalidates many policies.

There are times that you will be waiting before you can actually make a claim. There are companies that will make you wait for a 21 day cooling off period, which prevents people taking out insurance because they have broken the gadget and want to have it fixed and then cancel their cover. However, this can be a pain if you do genuinely break the device during that period.

Before you purchase the coverage, you should do a lot of research. Research always pays off in the end.

When you look into the details of your mobile phone insurance, you will need to look at the replacement phone that you will be sent if it cannot be repaired. Some companies will send out a new device but others will send refurbished ones to keep the cost down. No matter what you do, you should definitely get this coverage.
