I use Insure Apple iPhone ( http://www.insureappleiphone.com ) to insure my iphone. Squaretrade seems like a good solution from the outside but they dont offer half as much as insure apple iphone. They even insure used iphones. I pay $5.99 per month for my iphone 4 and have coverage against everything including loss or theft. the deductibles are fair for a lost or stolen iphone and the service is excellent. I have had them for about 8 months and have been very happy. I have searched high and low for the best iphone insurance out there and i think this definitely is. you cannot beat the coverage you get for the price. This is worth checking out if you are in the market for this iphone insurance

A new company called iphoneinsuranceplan.com seems to have good deals and also seems legit.

If you don’t have any insurance but still need to get your iPhone repaired or get parts for the iPhone, you can use these guys. I have bought parts from them before and they are located in the USA which worked out great for me.

If you like to repair your own iPhone, check out this website. Even if you would rather have a professional do the work, they can do it for you also. They sell parts and do repairs.

Worth Ave Group now offers iPhone insurance. For only 63 dollars you can cover a 16GB 3Gs. It covers just about everything including water damage and theft. There is only a 50 dollar deductible but you are good for the entire year. So if you break your phone again, you are still covered, unlike a warranty you buy from all the other places that just covers the first break/phone.

Here is a comparison chart:

iRepair Team LLC offers insurance plans that are superior to all other insurance or warranty plans out there.

I am the President and CEO of iRepair Team LLC. We have been in business for almost 2 years now and service customers all across the nation.

We do not require that the iPhone be mailed in to us. We offer two plans. One covering water damage and the entire phone for failure. This plan covers everything but theft and loss.

The other plan covers glass and lcd breakage as well as battery failure for 1 year for only $35 for the 3g and $45 for the 3gs. Only a $10 deductible is required for the 3g and $20 for the 3gs. 5 claims made me made per year.

There is simply no comparison to our insurance plans.

Please see iRepairTeam.com/iphoneinsurance for more information or call 888-269-5658 for more information.

I got proper iPhone insurance at iPhone Insurance Cover. They don't cover loss but do cover theft and accidental damage including international cover and some other bits. I paid 107 for 15 months cover. It seems ok to me. I guess you pays your money and takes your choice

Missionrepair is cheaper than that. They do 3gs for 99 and they do it in 24 hours. Its cool they are offering this program though, my friend has broken his glass 4 times in the last year.

I’ll ignore your comment about being a tool, and tell you I broke my 3G screen in two months after purchase. I broke my phone dialing up a booty call after a wedding at 3am. I dropped it from my ear (drunk btw) and it landed face down on exposed aggregate concrete. Most expensive booty call EVER!

And I’ve seen a few cracked screen over time. So its not that hard and you don’t have to be a tool, just clumsy.

SquareTrade only covers new iPhones purchased within the last 30 days from an authorized eBay seller or other authorized retailer (ie, AT&T, BestBuy, Walmart, etc.). They do not cover refurbished or used iPhones. SquareTrade policies include a $50 deductible per claim, and are more expensive than this program appears to be.

Italian company, screen repair for 99 Euro (150$) shipping included. They ship worldwide now. Website in english soon, they say…

The insurance was probably better for me but I may be an exception.

“A very common feature of many highly used iPhones are unsightly cracks …”

Aside from the horrific grammar of your opening sentence, I have to say I’ve *never* seen an iPhone with a cracked screen. I see dozens of them every day, all of my friends have them, and I’m sure some iPhones get cracked screens if yo drop them on concrete many times over, but this is hardly a “very common feature.”

I’ve dropped my 3G many times and never cracked the screen also. It’s generally a very hard thing to do unless you are a complete tool.

I bought SquareTrade the day I got my 3GS, covers any damage I don’t intentionally do for the ACTUAL replacement cost, and I never had to prove the condition of the phone or agree to any protector.
