I know the warranty they provide is worthless as even if it was possible to send it back to them, it would be far too expensive. I'm just wondering if there are any phone insurers that would cover a phone bought from them / Asia? Cheers.

    It’s unlikely. Normally you’ll need to have a UK model, with a receipt showing the IMEI number.
