They will cover anything that is not accidental or on purpose.......I still haven't been able to think of a qualifying circumstance.gingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08332693533505372084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8700813534075377575.post-76204233620652624742011-03-27T19:08:05.949-05:002011-03-27T19:08:05.949-05:00@Tomi: I am a card-carrying klutz, and it's a...@Tomi: I am a card-carrying klutz, and it's a marvel that I still have the same phone I've had for four years. That I haven't lost it or completely destroyed it is really a marvel to me. But, my poor mangled Motorola has stuck with me and even came through intensive care when I dropped it in a puddle. Dang! I really wanted an excuse to replace that!<br /><br />@Carrie: I called up Verizon itself and bought their insurance for $1 a month more and blanket coverage. Actually, I bought Dallas the cheaper coverage because he's lucky if he remembers to get it out of the house, but I bought me the whole shebang.<br /><br />@Paul: For all my grousing, I still have had the same phone for four years. When we switched over from Go Phone to an actual account, the little free phone they gave us then I gave to Ariane because she had exceeded the limits of her plan. My old one was better.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10966241468533764102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8700813534075377575.post-25328969463506043722011-03-27T14:26:04.939-05:002011-03-27T14:26:04.939-05:00I don't insure and I've never had to repla...I don't insure and I've never had to replace a phone.

They even have upgraded it if my model was outdated. I have lost it in rivers, skiing, dropped it while horseback riding, etc.<br />The only time I didn't get my phone replaced was when I had hit my limit of having my phone replaced in one year. Whoops! My bad!<br />Maybe the problem is you read the fine print. Maybe the company would replace it but there are always those responsible type people who read the fine print and don't even try because it says it won't. :)carrieaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02353367209502829684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8700813534075377575.post-52869521690244296372011-03-27T11:22:27.051-05:002011-03-27T11:22:27.051-05:00I insure my phone through Sprint and I've neve...I insure my phone through Sprint and I've never had a problem with them not covering it. My phone gets a lot of abuse thanks to my own butterfingers and the abuses of a pack of wild animals (aka my children). I have gotten it replaced several times, with several models, no problem at all. It is soooo worth it to me.tomianniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11075119869389583638noreply@blogger.com
