Think
about this:
Consider
for a minute the money you spend on insurance for your cell phone.
On average, this costs about $5 per month applied over a 2-year
contract period, that is $120. Your deductible averages $100 but can
be as high as $200 for more sophisticated phones, making a total of
$220 to $320 if you have a mishap. Have you read the fine print about
making a claim? For example, does your policy cover water/liquid
damage? Is a police report required to make a claim if your phone is
stolen? How many claims are allowed per contract? Will your insurance
company retrieve your data from your broken device? How long will it
take to get the claim approved and have the replacement in-hand? Will
it be a new phone identical to your old one or a refurbished
“equivalent” that may be completely unfamiliar? – Just to name
a few.
If
you are like most people, you don’t know the answer to these
questions. You bought the insurance to get “peace of mind” and it
worked, right up to the moment that you shattered your phone or
helplessly watched it fall into the toilet. All of a sudden, things
get complicated! You look frantically for the receipt and the
policy, hoping you stapled them together, then try to decipher the
“terms and conditions” written in legalese. IF
you succeed in navigating these conditions, you will “only” have
to pay $220 to $320 for a phone you may not like, with none of your
data on it, and no reason to believe that it will work with any of
your accessories! You bought the insurance to save money and avoid
hassles, right? Unless your phone was lost or stolen or you have
multiple claims in your contract period, you might want to consider
other options.
