Phone Insurance

Posts: 20 Forumite

Hi guys.
I've just taken delivery of my new phone.
Normally I wouldn't really bother with any form of insurance as I dont normally keep my phones for any longer than 12 months, however this one I have for 24 months & paid a fair wedge for it so this time I'm really thinking insurance is a must.
So whos best? I'm with Orange & they wanted £15pm for their cover with is frankly silly. TBH all I want really covered is the screen should I drop/break it.
Having it replaced would be ideal but I'd be happy with repaired.
I orignially paid for it on my ASDA Mastercard - would that cover it?
Thanks

orange insurance is expensive but very very good, you drop it and breaks next day you have a replacement via courrier. Or bank bundled ones, but not as good. Your credit card wont cover itDon't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.0

Ok I've checked Orange & they want £12.99pm which is mighty pricey. I have been with Orange before & indeed used their Care plan & found it to be brilliant - but then it only cost me something like £6pm.
So, I've had a nosey round the web & BarclayCard have cover listed at £6.99pm & 'insure2go.co.uk' also have cover at £6.99 & offers a £18 saving if you pay for a full year in advance.
Does anyone have any experiance of either of these specifically for phone insurance?0
