Why Do I Need Mobile Phone Insurance?

• 80% of household insurance policies do not adequately cover mobile phones
• Over 1.3 million handsets are stolen in the UK each year – that’s one every 24
seconds
• Half of all street crime involves a mobile phone
• Over 100,000 mobile phone repairs are carried out every week

If your mobile phone is damaged or stolen this could cost you hundreds of pounds
as well as cause a lot of inconvenience, stress and hassle. Without mobile phone
insurance you could be liable for the following costs:

Repairing your mobile phone
You may believe that damaging your phone is unlikely, yet they are so easy to drop or
knock. This is the most common grounds for insurance claims today, with thousands of
claims being made a week.
• Replacing your handset screen can cost upwards of £150 for a colour screen and around
£60 for a black & white screen.
• Cosmetic damage and battery damages can cost upwards of £60 to repair
• Liquid damage can be irreparable

Replacing your mobile phone
If you are a contract customer the cost to replace your phone could be more than
you think because contract mobile phones are heavily subsidised by your network.
When you initially commenced your contract or upgraded you will not have paid
the true value of your mobile phone. Replacing your mobile phone will cost you
upwards of £250, dependant upon brand and technology.

Paying the reminder of your contractual agreement
Your contact with your network is for a minimum 12 month period. Your mobile
phone is your responsibility not the networks. Your network will continue to bill
you for your monthly line rental. This could easily be upwards of £100. If you have
6 months left of your contact period with a line rental of £30.00 per month, you
will be liable for £180.00

Fonesure, mobile phone insurance can put your mind at ease. We offer insurance schemes
which provide different levels of protection for your mobile phone to suit your specific needs.
