The Worth Ave Group also offers a fairly comprehensive iPhone warranty program that will provide cash, repairs, or replacement of the phone. This warranty offers unlimited repairs and replacement and covers drops, spills, and theft. There are varying rates depending on the type of iPhone the customer has, as well as how many years of coverage they are seeking. There are numerous policy options, and the plan has a fifty dollar deductible.
The Square Trade warranty offers a full two years of protection for only a hundred dollars and a deductible of fifty dollars. The company is quick to point out that about a quarter of iPhones break and that it would cost up to six hundred dollars to replace a top tier iPhone that is out of contract. For the price of the warranty, users get two years of coverage that includes spills, drops, and even normal use failure as well as ten free uses of the Tektrak Lost Device Tracking Service. Using the app means all you need to do is scan and email your receipt. The service has excellent reviews, though it is worth noting that the low price offer is for phones less than thirty days old.
The GoCare warranty starts at $35 for an 8GB iPhone 3, with prices rising slightly as you increase the model of the phone, the amount of storage, or the duration of the plan. The most expensive plan is a 2 year warranty of the Verizon 32 GB iPhone 4, which comes in at $97. The plan covers theft, accidents, and water damage, and with a $50 deductible will cover the full replacement cost of the phone.
Safeware is another contender in the iPhone insurance game. Their protection covers accidental damage, liquid spills, power surges, theft, fire, floods, and vandalism. Prices for policies vary depending on the model of the phone, storage, location date purchased, and even whether or not the user travels internationally.
