Travelling with a smartphone is the norm, we use them for maps on the trip, to keep in contact with our family at home, to share our experiences on social media and much more. Why won’t you have cover for this valuable object you carry around everywhere?
Smartphones and other tech like earphones and laptops will be very expensive to replace in the unlikely event that something happens to it – ensure you are covered against the risk of loss, damage or theft.
It’s unlikely that your tech will be covered under your standard travel insurance policy, ensure you check the exclusions of the policy you plan to buy or already bought so you do not get caught off guard with no cover for these precious items.
Most travel insurers have gadget insurance as an add-on to your existing travel insurance policy. Use a comparison engine like Insurance Comparison to ensure you buy the right cover for your trip and your tech. With us you can compare a range of policies within a few minutes.
In the unfortunate event that your phone got stolen be sure to report it to the nearest policy station – get a crime reference number and a copy of the report, depending on your policy this might have to have happened within 24 hours of the incident in order to claim from your travel insurance. Always be sure to check the terms and conditions of your policy to ensure you take all the right steps the insurer wants you to take.
