Insurance

Just wondering who is the best to insure my new iPhone 5s with?
Thanks

Ps could a direct debit from DGG/RPP DD be mobile phone insurance? I've checked on here & looks like white goods but we've not got any brand new for ages so I don't know what else it could be?

    Define "the best" and what to insure against. Meanwhile have a read of MSE article Mobile Phone Insurance and of this thread: Spill the beans... on mobile phone insurers

    For white goods it's normally a breakdown insurance that new appliances don't need because they are under warranty.

    Hi there
    I insured mine and the wife's phone with gadget cover whom had a 2 for 1 offer. Like anything with insurance you only know how good there are when you make a claim. So fingers crossed
    It's £5.99 per month for an iPhone 5s

  • Seems it was domestic & general. Extended breakdown cover for a cooker we don't even have any more. Thanks for the phone advice

    Don't buy from Insurance2go.co.uk, my son had problem claiming from them since beginning of May. Their good reviews only related to buying experience but not claiming processs.
    I won't buy any mobile insurance unless you phone is over £500, if so, go with your network provider, you get what you pay for.
