Insurance: Upsie vs Samsung Care

[Bike Mi Vie]

For people who it concerns.

Can you give me your opinion on the two.
With cell phone protection from wells Fargo?

Thoughts?

Maybe someone can point me in the right forum?

At $160 for 2 years and a $99 ded, it does not seem like a good deal, given it does not cover loss or theft. But I'm not comparing it to Samsung's coverage. I'm comparing it to Verizon, who has a plan for $6.85 a month per line and $29 ded. Covers more, deductable is lower and theft/loss is covered. Maybe check out your provider to see if they offer something similar?

With wells Fargo they'll reimburse the deductible. For 25$ and it covers loss and theft. What you think now?

Wow I just checked TMobile and they have one for 18 and the other is for 7. The one for 7 only covers "internal"

I never heard up "Upsie" but the first impression isn't great, never heard of a "Galaxy Note S20". I just went with SquareTrade and it's $8.99 a month with a $149 deductible. It's still cheaper than TMobile which is $18 a month and $249 deductible.

Can someone suggest which forum I could post in, to get more opinions?

Hi folks,
I’m Will Anderson, Upsie’s VP of Product. Thanks for letting us know about the typo on our home page! That was not only my teams mistake, it was mine. I was so excited to update the website with the new releases that I mistyped the phone’s name.

Thanks to the post here, we fixed the typo on Friday. We always appreciate feedback so if you see anything else, we’d love to hear about it.

Cheers,
Will

Is there a monthly payment option?

I have 3 products with Upsie and so far no claims. Thank God!!!

I just use TMo's insurance. 18/month sounds like a lot, but it covers whatever device my sim is in. Beats paying for insurance for each phone I have separately.

 

[o4liberty]

Upsie comes out to 4.50 a month for two years which is the cheapest you and get also has a low deductable.

I don't generally believe in phone insurance but the main thing with any insurance is how the claim process is and how well they handled your claim etc. If you have US unlocked model did they send that model or asked you what carrier you are in and send that model (I bet it's the latter). I don't know how good or bad upsie is but any insurance the important thing is the claim process and if you get replacement of the exact item you had. Cheaper premium is great and all but if the claim process/customer service is horrible then it's just throwing away money every month IMO. Not saying Upsie is since I can't speak without using them but more of a general opinion.

My phones are covered under my MasterCard credit card.
Knock on wood I never had to use it.

How? Just by paying your service bill with that card?

 

[upsie-will]

We don't currently have a monthly payment option but it's definitely something we're looking into.

Certain credit cards will extend the manufacturer warranty an extra year beyond the manufacturer - and yes, it's by using that card to buy the phone. Some credit cards might extend it two years. However, they probably don't provide accident coverage for the drops, spills, or cracks that account for most repairs.

I'd be all in on a one year deal.....
