Sprint Insurance vs. Bestbuy Insurance
- Got my BB Saturday, doesn't have insurance as I forgot to tell the guy at Bestbuy to do it (frankly he should have asked me, but he was nice and not an a-hole so no biggie). He showed me Bestbuy Geek Squad cell insurance for $10 a month. I know Sprint's is $7 a month. The differences was no deductible (Sprint $50 to $100), loaner phones(not on Sprint), transfer data for you (not on Sprint), 1 time battery replacement (not on Sprint), and unlimited claims (2 per year on Sprint). Frankly for $3 a month, Bestbuy is better, BUT I wanted to see if anybody else had this and how do they bill it? Why i still don't have insurance, thinking about it. Go to Bestbuy to add it or call Sprint, I need to do it and I will be this weekend or sooner, but I am wondering what to do. Thanks.06-24-09 10:46 AMLike 0
- You may want to take a look at SquareTrade as well. I think it's $4 per month:

I am a big fan of insurance and I pay for it on all the families devices. I was at the at&t store monday and overheard a rep say that liquid damage was even covered, I could be wrong but I haven't heard of insurance companies covering it. I will be returning to the store today to get that clarified and get (hopefully) it in print. In the past I submitted claims as lost, seems easier. Only draw back now is your bb goes on the list.

I have had to use it to replace my husband's phones more than once (TAKE YOUR DAMN PHONE OUTTA YOUR POCKET BEFORE YA THROW EM IN THE HALL!). It's been seamless.06-24-09 11:14 AMLike 0

Ive replaced 6 phones since February. 3 Touch Pros, 3 Curves all on my number. I have yet to pay a deductible since I pay the $7/mo. insurance. All phones have been overnighted to me. Ive also exchanged my wifes palm at no charge.06-24-09 02:30 PMLike 0
