Mobile Phone Insurance - Short Period

mummalove

Hi,

Does anyone know if there are any companies that can insure my Samsung S8 for just 1 week only?

I'm travelling to Barcelona and it would put my mind at ease whilst there.

I purely want the cover for my holiday.

Any suggestions welcome.

You could take one of the packaged bank accounts providing mobile insurance and switch it out for a bonus/downgrade it to a free account when you return.

Check that it isn't covered by any travel insurance you might have first.

It would be simply not cost effective to issue a policy for one week. As above, check your existing holiday insurance and home contents insurance for options.
If you PIN and SIM-lock it, then the only risk is the loss of the phone itself, which is trivial compared to the call costs that will be racked up overnight if it's stolen.

Thanks both for the advice. Much appreciated.
