Why You Need A Protection Plan
Why the best iPhone insurance is important to you
- No iPhone insurance from At&T: AT&T may be the exclusive providers of iPhones in the US right now but they do not offer iphone insurance or iphone warranties to its subscribers.
- What it means to replace an iphone: Repair of an iphone is above $200 depending on your model so iphone insurance is important as a total loss can be expensive.
- Premiums, deductibles and claim limits: Our deductibles are only $25.00. See terms and conditions for more information.
More on iPhone insurance:
- iPhone insurance: Is obviously a sought after item considering the millions of iPhones sold out of AT&T this last quarter. Contrary to expectations iPhone insurance, unlike Blackberry insurance, is fragmented leaving big gaps for iPhone users looking to get iphone insurance for phone damage, phone broken and iPhone water damage. We make it simply at a one stop iphone insurance protection package.
- AT&T Insurance in general: It should be understood that AT&T insurance does indeed have three wireless phone insurance options covering all the expected modules like extended warranties, lost phone, stolen and phone damage, and even data back-up. Also ATT insurance will insure old and refurbished cellular devices alongside new cell phones as long as you buy your mobile phone device from them directly and contract for their phone service as well. In taking AT&T insurance it has to be within one month of activation no matter if the mobile unit is new or old. So what is the iphone insurance problem you may well ask? My iPhone is all of those things so I am therefore protected if I sign up on their cellular insurance plan you say? Wrong unfortunately.
- iPhone Insurance from ATT (or lack of it): AT&T is the official iPhone exclusive distributor but does not offer any insurance on iphone effectively excluding iPhone from its regular cell insurance plans. As a matter of interest you are also excluded from As U Go phone insurance as well – both notable gaps in AT&T phone insurance offering. We asked an AT&T salesperson just to test this “Can we please get iPhone insurance?” His answer: “Why are you asking for that; nobody does and if you could it would not be worth it?” Now this is not necessarily representative of the standard AT&T response one may get, but it is quite frequent we believe. Some of our phone insurance comparison site users were referred to Apple Care for iPhone insurance.
- Apple Care iPhone insurance: Is not iphone insurance at all but just an iphone extended warranty. This covers you for factory defective issues only after the 1st year when the manufacturer’s warranty expires. For $69 you get the same back-up that is offered to you by Apple in the first year after it expires for one additional year plus an additional one year nine months of a technical help desk after the initial 90 days from date of purchase. This is a free help desk on the new iPhone as manufacturer support expires. Extended warranties do not cover phone damage by spills and drops or water damage. Bottom line, Apple Care offers the iPhone owner iPhone insurance that is severely restricted and relatively expensive.
