Insuring your phone

Options
Hello,
We turned down the offer of insurance when we bought a mobile phone from Carphone Warehouse. After a close shave with a toilet :cry:, we'd like to insure the phone. Any tips on good insurance providers for mobiles please?

Thanks

    I have used www.mobilesforeveryone.2u.co.uk for the last 5 or so years.
    Had no problems even when my mobile ended up down the toilet!!

    Before buying any insurance i would suggest doing research as different people have different needs

    Put the money in a jar instead.

  • Check with your home insurer. They should cover it for you if you have extended accidental damage cover. Mobile insurance is one of the biggest cons. I had orange care once and it is £6 per month = £72 per year then you pay an extra £15 'admin charge' which will mean over a yaer your claim is £87. The cpw insurance is the biggest rip off of them all

    I use a company called CUSC, only £49.99 a year. I have claimed in the past and found them very good, even water damage. http://www.cusc.co.uk/
