Great News in the iPhone World no comments
We certainly thought this recently development was good news – but that might be because we are quite clutzy. Up until now, AT&T hasn’t offered any type of insurance on the iPhone. If you drop it, lose it or it gets taken, it’s your problem. However, it sounds like AT&T has recently changed its mind. Starting soon, they will be offering MobileProtect insurance which will cost $13.99 a month to insure your handset against loss or damage. It will include a deductible and other details you can read more about.
While this might seem high when you first see it, it’s certainly less than the $600 or more you’ll need to spend if you lose your iPhone and are still under contract. This program, as far as we’ve heard, won’t be included on your AT&T bill. Rather, it will be handled through iTunes. To enroll, you’ll download the MobileProtect application from the app store within 30 days of purchasing your iPhone. We aren’t sure what this will mean for current iPhone owners – but time will tell how all of this will work!
