Now you have purchased a new mobile phone and committed yourself for the next 18 to 24 months to your phone network, you will probably want to get some insurance in place to protect your new investment. As you probably know, your mobile phone was only given to you free by your retailer, as you have promised them with a guarantee of your business for the term of your contract. That is a guaranteed income supply for them for the next 24 months.
As you have assured them of guaranteed income over the coming months, they are more than happy to give you a free mobile phone, to reward your custom, as well as to attract you to the offer in the first place. But where would you stand if you lost your new phone? Well basically, you would have to stand the replacement bill, unless, you had some valid insurance in place for your phone. The replacement cost of phones will vary from make and model, but a rule of thumb price would be around the 300 GBP area, with the latest iPhone being in the higher price bracket of around 650 GBP.

Mobile phones can range dramatically in price these days, available from just a few pounds for a very basic model, increasing to well over 1000 GBP for more advance and desirable handsets. The rule of thumb in phone pricing is a combination of brand name functionality and desire. Apple seems to be winning the third component of desire, with the incredible success with the iPhone range. Nokia and Samsung tend to be the two follow up desirable brands at present that command the premium pricing bracket.
When it comes to deciding whether protect your new hand set with an insurance plan, there are some options to consider, these will decide the price you will pay for the protection, which can also impact on the quality of the insurance product you decide to purchase.

We all spend a lot of money on getting the latest handsets available in the market, we either rush to the service providers to see if they have any deals with our favorite phones or we simply buy SIM free phones. But the money spent on purchasing the cell phone the either way goes down the drains if we do not buy mobile phone insurance. If your one of those lazy personalities who thinks phone insurance is a waste, then think twice. The research shows, that over 1.3 million mobile phones stolen and 1.6 million phones damaged or lost. Now this is a big number and you never know you mobile might be just the next one increasing these digits.
While buying a cell phone these are the points you should consider if you want your phone to be insured with the best value cover, if you buy insurance in the store where you purchase the mobile phone you will undoubtedly pay much more for your insurance.

Have you ever purchased a mobile phone from a shop only to be asked that awkward question by the sales staff:
Would you like to include some mobile phone insurance with you new phone, it will cover you for theft and damage and save you having to find the money to replace it if something was to happen to it?
All of a sudden you get that awkward feeling come over you. You have just agreed to a £35.00 per month contract for the next 48 months, which was probably a little more than you wanted to pay and now the sales assistant is trying to get another £8 per month from you for their insurance plan.
It’s a real 50/50 spur of the moment decision for most people, many people must just flip an imaginary coin inside their head and come up with a yes or no answer. More often than not, the store sales staff cannot really give you any details about the policy other than the monthly cost and the excess fee, if you ask them for a copy of the terms and conditions, you will 9 times out of ten find they do not have this information to hand.
Not checking the terms and conditions to any potential insurance product is not a good idea, as you will want to check the small print so you are aware of just what is or is not covered.
You do not have to rush into purchasing mobile phone insurance at the time of purchase, why not return home and carry out a mobile phone insurance comparison and check if you can find a better policy for your new handset. If you are planning on purchasing a new phone in the near future, you can always compare insurance policies in advance.
