The mobile phone has become a constant companion for most of us - that’s why insurance is so important. The news is that you can enjoy a great insurance package as part of your account. It covers you against loss, theft, accidental damage, electrical and mechanical breakdown. The cover is worldwide and covers unauthorised calls of up to £1500 for contract phones and £100 for pay-as-you-go phones. It also covers you for repairing or replacing your handset and providing a new sim card (up to £300 in value). Plus if you have a joint account, you can cover both your handsets!
