    Hi guys I have a s8+ less than three months old fell on its back today no problems no marks what i could see so put in my pocket. Took it out a hour later to find the screen had cracked. Now I dont have insurance on the phone but can I insure the phone now and claim next month to have it repaired.

    Nope, if you insure it when its not bought new, you need to bring it to shop to have it inspected afaik

    Doesn't make it less fraudulent! You are taking out cover to attempt to claim for damage already done.

    Apart from the fact there's probably an excess of 90 Euro or something. Plus your annual premium. Be as cheap to just repair yourself
