Don't be stupid, the man worked for T-Mobile, it will allow you to add it sure but when its time to use it to replace your device the system will flag it and they will not swap it for a new/refurbished device. If you want to be hard headed fine. SMH, a dang shame
At least call Asurion, I'm sure you know how wrong reps can be. Maybe they think its covered because you can add the insurance to the account but I'd take heed to the mans advice and common sense. WHY would T-Mobile replace a phone you got from Google and not them? I can see if it was a T-Mobile phone you bought off of ebay or something and they decide to cover it, at least it came from them originally. I don't any problem working around the system but at least consider the good advice. imo
