mobile phone insurance

obicat

I've now got a contract phone but I turned down the standard insurance, at least until I've checked out some alternatives. So who is the cheapest while still providing decent cover?

Have you looked at the possibility of getting it covered under your house insurance?

I've just cancelled my house insurance as I've got a live in job and I wont need any

We have just got 2 new mobiles in our family and I initially took insurance through Carphone warehouse and the cost was £6.00 per month per phone, but I've since cancelled it. This doesn't sound a lot, but there are cheaper companies some of which are:
https://www.cusc.co.uk https://www.talkcover.com they both work out at under £5.00 per month. Apart from that I didn't find much else and you have to read the small print - the excess amounts can vary.
I ended up switching my home contents insurance to a cheaper provider and I am now paying less - £6.80 per month, which includes standard + cover for personal belongings away from the home (accidental damage, loss, theft etc) which is good enough for the phones (The AA had just increased my premiums by 50% to almost £9.00 and that was without personal belongings cover!):beer:
Hope this helps.
