No, insurance claims are usually Refurbished.

Yes, You can list it on ebay.

If you file an insurance claim for it, you would have to call Asurion and get it removed from the negative list. Not sure the procedures they have after claims but I don't imagine it will be easy to make that phone usable.

...at a cost. Asurion would want you to return the device to them, or pay them back for their cost on the replacement they sent you.

Your old phone is now legally property of Asurion Insurance. You are "required" to send it to them if you ever find it.

They will lock out the serial number with Verizon so it can never be used on a cell network again.

🙄 It was placed on the Negative File list. It is property of Asurion now and if you find it then technically you should return it to them. Tech support will not release it from the Negative list for you if you do find it. You could use it with Wi-Fi I suppose.
