Random reply, I get free mobile insurance with my bank account.
Ooo, what bank is this with?
I'll probably insure mine with this place.
A lot cheaper than the CPW. I assume house insurance doesn't cover mobiles?

I do too, but if it is RBS, they wont insure the iphone as they have it classed as a PDA.
Can't you get the insurance off o2 at 7.50 a month?
Think it depends on your house insurance, ring and check.

I get mine with LloydsTSB and they cover it as a phone.
However, they don't start the cover until 15 days after you've registered the phone.

Doesn't surprise me really. "Oh new fancy expensive gadget sir? Oh no we don't cover those!"

On your own, probably, but we have it on the joint a/c so the cost is split between us.
Interesting, I was going to ask the same.
The contents insurance will cover me for an addition £30 per year which seems reasonable although the excess is £150. Based on this, the 02 insurance at £6 per month seems far more attractive. Are there any other options?

When I bought my iphone v1 the 02 guy said to me 'do you want insurance? some insurers won't cover it as it's such an expensive phone'
err no thanks mate, I'll just phone Endsleigh and tell them to cover it instead of my N95. which I did. It costs around £45 on my student insurance.

I stopped paying for phone insurance a few years ago, as I found when I actually needed to make a claim, due to the phone dying of its own accord, they were less than helpful and I pretty much ended up having to pay for a brand new phone.
Also, it seems like they have just skyrocketed the insurance. My first contract in 2000 was £2 insurance, then it was £4, then £6 when I last had it last. The next contact I took out they were wanting £8, due to it being an 'expensive phone' (though my last one was supposed to be expensive, and was actually more expensive than my new one you replaced it with!). Now they are wanting £12 to cover an iPhone! The cheek.
