AT&T Insurance to Cover Cracked iPhone Screens Starting November 15

Wow I save so much money by just being careful...

in Greece, buying from a specific authorised reseller, you can purchase a one-year warranty for cracked screen/theft/fire at a EUR49.00/USD53.90 one-off cost.

Paying on a monthly basis usd7,99 and then to have to pay an additional usd89 for a cracked screen is ridonculous at best.

Instead of wasting your money on yet another crappy service from a wireless carrier, just sign up for a Wells Fargo Visa card. The no annual fee credit card automatically insures your cell phone, at no cost, provided you pay your monthly wireless bill using the card.

Coverage may include up to four cell phones as listed on your wireless cell phone bill. The cellular telephone is protected against damage or theft for up to $600 per occurrence and $1,200 per 12 month period, with only a $25 deductible per incident.

Compare this to AT&T's offer, which costs $96 per year plus an $89 deductible per incident.

Until they open a bunch of accounts under your name and take a large dump all over your credit score.

Plus you get the added benefit of possibly having new accounts opened in your name.:rolleyes: There are positives and negatives to all of these services.

I logged in just to thank you for posting this. I've had a credit card with Wells Fargo for years and had no idea! I will be cancelling my wife's SquareTrade warranty and not going through T-Mobile and having to deal with Assurant if anything happens. Thank you!

EDIT: Any T-Mobile JUMP on Demand customers be warned! Wells Fargo's coverage does not apply to rented or leased phones. So I'm SOL but my wife can benefit at least. I ended up getting 1 year of SquareTrade instead.
