So, I figure I'll get insurance on this phone for the first year, until the major cost of replacement comes down in year 2.
I'm wondering what people typically do for the best deal on insurance? I am looking for both damage and theft protection. Do you use:
1. Verizon's insurance ($7/mo I believe?)
2. Third party insurance? ($???/mo)
3. Tie it in with home insurance carrier? (Don't know if this is possible?)
Any thoughts?
Way I figure it is that with Verizon, total replacement cost is $200 ($96 ins + $100 deductible), which is a beneficial odds ratio of 1:3. A little steep for my liking, as I kept my old phone for 4.5 years with no probs, but the quick replacement in an emergency counts for something. Would prefer to get it closer to 1:6 overall if possible, that makes more sense to me.
