Insurance for iPhone?

PGL · 2010-02-03 09:36:58

Got a call from Vodafone yesterday offering me an iPhone (not sure if its the 3GS version) through a 3rd party company. This is due to the fact that Vodafone are not yet sure when they will be selling them from their stores. Anyway due to the fact that it is through a 3rd party company, Vodafone cannot offer insurance…

Got a call from Vodafone yesterday offering me an iPhone (not sure if its the 3GS version) through a 3rd party company. This is due to the fact that Vodafone are not yet sure when they will be selling them from their stores.

Anyway due to the fact that it is through a 3rd party company, Vodafone cannot offer insurance (usually approx €5.99 per month). My home insurance will cover me for theft and damage (i.e. phone is stood on etc) but not for internal electrical / mechanical failure.

Am i better off waiting until Vodafone have them in store to get fully covered? Are iPhones prone to internal electrical / mechanical failure? Is it overkill and a waste of money taking out Vodafone's insurance?

Furthermore has anyone got a Vodafone iPhone through this 3rd party company? Any bad experiences? What version (3G or 3GS) do they offer?

cheers
