Let\u2019s face it, damaging a cell phone or smartphone is easy to do and can take less time than placing a call. Your phone can fall out of your pocket while you\u2019re rushing to catch a flight or working on the roof of your house. It can land on hard concrete and break, or in water and get soaked. You can accidentally spill hot coffee on it, drop it in a bucket of paint, or leave it outside during a storm. One of your grandkids could practice on it with a hammer\u2014not a pretty sight. The list of ways your mobile phone can meet an untimely end is long.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why we’ve partnered with SquareTrade<\/a>, an award-winning protection plan service company, to offer you a simple and affordable way to protect your cell phone<\/a> or smartphone, as well as a best-in-class replacement service.<\/p>\n

For as little as $2 a month, this plan covers your phone against drops, spills and other accidents. Plus you\u2019re guaranteed a fast replacement once you file a claim.<\/p>\n

Our Protection Plan also protects your cell phone for up to three years. This plan is only available for newly purchased phones; the good news is you have 30 days from the time you’ve purchased your phone to sign up for it. As usual, you\u2019re free to cancel the plan at any time. That\u2019s because we never lock our customers into contracts.<\/p>\n

So how much does it cost to protect your phone? The cost of the plan depends on your phone\u2019s value and can start as low as $2 per month. Plus, there is no deductible for phones priced under $200. The chart below outlines how much it will cost to protect your new phone.<\/p>\n
