Lloyds phone insurance

Options
Hello


Does anyone know when Lloyds started to put mobile phone insurance on their packages? I am currently in an argument with Policy Admin Services (phones 4 u) insurance and they have said if we can prove that we had alternative insurance in place then they will give us a 'goodwill gesture'.


I phoned Lloyds to ask them and they said they would be in touch but that was over a week ago.....


Thanks!


Laura

    It shouldn't matter. Simply provide evidence of the start date of your insurance​ and they will do the calculations.

    Did you register your phone (if you had to?) that would also help prove duplicate cover

    Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness: 

    People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

    No, unfortunately I didn't register the phone. I didn't even think about mobile phone cover at the time. I wasn't even aware I had signed up for mobile phone insurance with phones 4 u. Thanks for that though!

    This means that the 'phone was not covered by Lloyds scheme, so you didn't have dual cover...
