I purchased a Galaxy Nexus from Verizon on my SPG. Is it better for me to buy a 2 year warranty from Squaretrade for $124 ($99 deductible if I do need to get my phone replaced), or can I just rely on Verizon's 1 year + Amex's 1 year. Straight up insurance through Asurion is a scam IMO.

[Dan]

"AMEXs 1 year" will only cover the price you put on the AMEX (probably $200-$300 in most people's cases).
Squaretrade will not cover lost/stolen phones.

Only Verizon's Asurion "scam" coverage for $5.18/month ($62/year, $124/2 years) and a $99 deductible will cover both of those aspects.

"AMEXs 1 year" will only cover the price you put on the AMEX (probably $200-$300 in most people's cases).

The phone cost me $325. Amex's coverage would only affect months 13-22 of my contract as after that I will be due for an upgrade. So if it gets damaged in months 1-12 I'm covered by Verizon; damaged, lost, or stolen in months 13-22 by Amex. And if it happens in 23 or 24 I get protection from Amex AND a new phone from Verizon.

Only Verizon's Asurion "scam" coverage for $5.18/month ($62/year, $124/2 years) and a $99 deductible will cover both of those aspects.

Asurion costs $7.99 a month with a $150 deductible IIRC. Perhaps you're referring to their pricing for dumbphones?

In 13-22 AMEX will pay for $325 of coverage  VZW (without Asurion) and AMEX will only cover warranty damage, not physical damage, lost, or stolen.
And how will that help when the phone by itself costs $700?

VZW/Asurion has a $5.18/month plan with a $99 deductible for smartphones.  Look it up.

That would have nothing to do with whether your phone breaks or not/coverage.

Plenty of smartphones on ebay for far less than $325; I'll make do until my upgrade comes up again.

Regardless - my mind is made up against Asurion. I've fed them upwards of $1K with nothing to show for it. Granted, that is the nature of the insurance beast, but for over a year I continued to use a damaged phone because paying the $125 to have it replaced > than a used version on eBay would run me. Ergo, my question above: Amex or Squaretrade?

Does this mean it cannot be used on product purchased on Amazon, or on Warranty purchased on Amazon?
