Worldwide Phone Insurance Cover - Samsung S10 128GB

Hi there,

I have been conducted my research into phone insurance for my new Samsung S10 128GB which is on contract.

I am, however, in South East Asia for 2 months, and need world wide cover.

However, the insurance polices I have read only deal with issuing a replacement - if needed - when I return to the UK.

Are there any insurers which can deal with accidental loss and theft abroad, in particular, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos?

Thanks

    Search for worldwide gadget insurance.

    Do Samsung offer anything ? They are a global company, so perhaps they offer an Insurance with global replacement service.

    Some credit card companies offer worldwide insurances, which are aimed at business travellers.
    The comments I post are personal opinion. Always refer to official information sources before relying on internet forums. If you have a problem with any organisation, enter into their official complaints process at the earliest opportunity, as sometimes complaints have to be started within a certain time frame.
  • Hi there,

    Unfortunately, SamsungCare does not cover accidental loss and/or theft, and in any event, states 'Outside your Country of Residence for trips of a duration up to a maximum period of 60 consecutive days. Samsung will service your claim upon your return to your Country of Residence..'

    Which credit card companies, in particular, would you be able to recommend?


    Thanks
