Hi Kelly, I'm curious how much you pay for insurance coverage for your iPhone from your cell phone provider. And have you ever filed any claims with that coverage and if so, what was your experience?

Apple Care Plus is too limiting. I used the insurance plan from my cell phone company. It covers theft as well as faults with the device and any accidental damage. It also offers an upgrade to the new iPhone version each year. Kelly On 5/4/21, Sieghard Weitzel <siegh...@live.ca> wrote: > Have you ever tried to collect from a credit card insurance plan?
