Several of our forum members have purchased Squaretrade insurance and seem to highly recommend them. I believe that one of our Administrators has purchased insurance from them. Perhaps he'll see your post and comment.

That would be me.

I can't really speak to their service as I haven't had to use it yet. But from the standpoint that it was cheap and fairly comprehensive for a phone policy, I couldn't be more pleased. And they're always extending me special offers on other products now. I guess we'll see if it's any good if I need to use it.

Thanks.
I have been through 3 phones.
One was crushed in a recliner -3GS
Borrowed a 3G to get me by and I dropped that one.
Sold those 3 to finance my white iPhone 4 and it's screen wqs cracked when I totaled my car was hit and totaled last week.

I will probably use them once I have my new one paid for by the insurance company. Thanks

With all those mishaps you've been having, you definitely need to buy plenty of insurance! ;P

I think you should super glue that phone to your hand. or maybe some nice velcro.
