Are they open at 7 then? I don't have one reserved so dont want to travel for an hour to bluewater for them all to have gone. So think I will phone them Friday and see if they have any that weren't collected!

Could I open up an account with them and just put a bit of money in it or do you have to have a regular income going in it?

It has a monthly fee so as long as you pay that i am sure barclays will be happy to insure you

I currently have 3gs and im looking at buying the iphone4 sim free.
My contract at the minute is £35 pm which i get 600mins 500texts and unlimited internet.

If i buy it sim free from Apple and get a microsim i can still stay on this tariff, is this right?

i dont want to lose my unlimited internet.

Thanks

Yes you can keep your existing tariff including the unlimited internet.

Thinking of getting one of the LTSB added value accounts as well.
Wonder how good they are at actually paying out. Do they try and get out of paying as far as possible?!

I live at home with parents but am going to consider this now as nothing else is appealing to me.

Vikki, ask your parents if they have "away from home" or "personal possessions" (same thing, different name) on their home insurance. If they do, ask them to check with the company that it includes mobile phones.

If you want complete peace of mind, ask your parents to "specify" the iPhone on their policy. This will cost you a few pounds plus a one-off administration fee (so a total of perhaps £30 - £5 for the cover and £25 for the admin fee) and if you offer to pay it, your parents should be happy. The phone is then insured up to the next renewal date and then it's only £5 for the next year (no admin fee).

Cover under the home insurance will include accidental damage AND accidental loss - accidental loss is things like leaving the phone on the bus or train and situations where the phone has disappeared but you can't prove theft. Accidental Loss and theft without violence are usually excluded from specific mobile phone insurance.
