i would add it then never take it off .. you have a $300 phone .. if you should lose it or drop it in water your covered ..

ok i will do that then... thanks!

so your saying i cant get insurance? 😕

if you can still make calls add it .. over the phone .. they will want to make a test call to it .. you can add insurace at anytime so long as they can make a test call to your phone ..

I thought I saw a post (either or somewhere else) that Verizon wasn't going to allow insurance to be added to a phone outside of a certain time period. It was to keep people from breaking thier phones and getting replacements (or something to that effect).

I have not a clue if this is true but just re-posting something that I read, for all I know is that Verizon may allow you to do so.

yeah.......... 😳 i just called. They wont put insurance on the phone after 15 days. 😢

Plain and simple.......... Just threaten to leave them. Watch how fast they decide to accommodate you. Doesn't matter how long you are into your contract. And if they they tell you that you have to pay full price for a phone, let them know it's cheaper to pay the $175 cancellation fee and sign up with another company that will accommodate you when you have a problem. We are all human and make mistakes. You just made a mistake and didn't add the insurance. So demand that you either let them give you the insurance and make good on it or otherwise you will leave. I have threatened them so many times I get whatever I want. Believe me it works. 😁

What... do u work for verizon or something? 🙄

I didnt get the insurance at first, cuz i didnt realize i would need it. Now that i need it cuz of what happened i think i should be able to get it... idc. I only had this phone for about a month and a half. If verizon was a good company they would just give me a new phone. Idc what happened. I made a mistake, so they should be able to assist me in my mistake or something... 😉

JIMSPOORBOX PROBABELY NEVER GETS ANY IF YA KNOW WHAT I MEAN. 🤣 🤣

haha yeah farreall

* Loss
* Theft
* Physical damage

I dont think the insurance if you do get it will cover the phone in the first place.. WATER DAMAGE... water and electronics dont mix..

What does
Loss*
and Theft*
have to do with water damage???

He's tryin to say that he will steal your phone and it will be your loss..... 🤣

Hah?! 🙄

Water damage is covered under insurance just to let u know and the key word I read above was You didnt think you would need it. Well whose fault is it you didnt think? It sure isn't Verizons now is it, its yours. Now there is a simple answer to this verizon offers refurbished phones for $90.00, yes its not as cheap as the $50.00 deductable to the insurance company, and yes you wount get the E815 you'll get some lower end phone but its your fault for not thinking. I hate it when people come in to my store and think that we should give them the moon cause they signed a damn contract we offer you the insurance for the incase ofs, not because you know it will happen.

IF YOU KNEW IT WOULD HAPPEN THEN YOU COULD HAVE STOPPED IT FROM HAPPEN...

CORECT

Dude.... dont you just love it when these verizon employers come on here and talk this is ish about stupid stuff. I didnt ask for a smart*ss i asked for advice.. u know. Am i geting smart with you? No, so i suggest you stop being a smart allic just because u work for verizon! 👿 See, what nobody knows either, is that i bought my phone from bestbuy, and had it activated at best buy too.

Who cares I scammed Verizon so many times. I own the stupid company LOL!

Needs insurance????????? That is a joke. I don't have ANY insurance and I always get an exchange on my phones. 😁

No. They ask at the time of the contract signing if you want the insurance. If you decline it, they make you initial that you declined it (and I'm sure the terms of the insurance decline are written right there). I'll re-read my last contract update, but I'm fairly sure they tell you that you need to request the insurance within 15 days. If it's not the paperwork I signed, it's certainly on the pamphlet about the insurance...

Like someone else said, are you the type of person to decline collision insurance on your car, then call the ins. company to add it after getting in an accident?

Verizon didn't drop your phone in water, YOU dropped your phone in water. Why should THEY pay for your mistake? Will you be the first to complain w...

HAHA U GO BOY! LOLLOL...

They probably back down just because they don't want to deal with your tantrums. If I was working for VZW and had you pulled a rant like this, I'd give you the number of your cellular carrier of choice just to be rid of you. Better yet, I'd refer you to the terms and conditions of the contract you signed and tell you to shut up and go away.

This may come as a shock, but Verizon Wireless like all other carriers, is in business to make money. A part of this is delivering good customer service, but this does not include having to listen to someone ranting like a spoiled child. Assuming you took time to read the contract, you had a choice of accepting or rejecting the terms and conditions, including what features were avaiable and which were...

For god sakes I wish that Verizon would rid of me from this stupid contract. They are just too stupid and I still get what I want. It's always a win win situation with me. And as for you shuddp yourself or i'll have to Bit** slap you across the America's Choice Network!!

I GET WHAT I WANT WITH VERIZON AND THAT IS THAT I HAVE NOT PAID FOR A PHONE SINCE 4 YEARS AGO. ALL I GOT FOR FREE. DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU HOW VERIZON SCREWS WITH ITS CUSTOIMERS AND DELIBERATELY CRIPPLES FEATURES. WELL, I GOT NEWS FOR YOU. THE FIRST TIME I DON'T GET WHAT I WANT WITH VERIZON I AM LEAVING FOR GOOD. THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN BECAUSE I AM TREATED LIKE ROYALTY.

YOUR JUST STUPID JEALOUS SO SIT DOWN AND SHUDDUP JIMSPOORBOX.

I rest my case!!! 🤣 😁

I think he just proved my point!! 🤣

Is there anyone that would like to hire this guy to work for your company? 😕

He doesn't sound old enough for his working papers...

Its seems as though a select few of you are just stupendously jealous because you wish you could get your way every time with Verizon like I do. I know EXACTLY how to work them good! So stop being so damn jealous already because you HAVE to keep continuing to pay for your phones everytime a new one comes out. I get all mine free all I have to do is just find a defect and after my third one I get a brand new top of the line phone any time I want and I am loving it. I wish just once some rep from Verizon would deny me a free phone so this way I can say, break me outta this contract but they will never do that. 🤣 🤣 🤣 OR else I threaten to leave and it hasn't failed me once. And if it ever does, good riddance to the slime bags...

Some of us can afford to buy the phones at retail too. So what? I lose a phone I buy another. Its only $350! Half a car payment for one onth. No Big.

Thank you, thank you and thank you. I am sick and tired of all these idiots playing the system instead of admitting it's their own damn fault and just dealing with it the right way - by just paying the retail price for a new phone like they should. To me, anybody that acts like that is just plain pathetic.

This is a good example of phone frustration LOL! I love it when idiots like that get so aggravated when they don't even know the whole story. I could sit here and say I just won a million dollars and you would believe that? LOL. If I knew you were that gullible, I would have sold you NYC!

(continues)

It may work, but it's stupid and it's playing the system. It's your own dam* fault if you dropped the phone or got it wet or whatever. Just pay for a new phone like you should. Don't try and play and system and screw the company over just becaue you're too much of a Bas*ard to do the right thing.

FYI:
With Cingular you can add/minus insurance ANYTIME.

Like they say Cingular fits you best, none of this first 15 days of having a new phone crap.

EXACTLY.......... So it goes to show you that Jim better get off of his soapbox and stop preaching the word of the diddly do right thing. I don't see any angel wings on that dude.

i think i should be able to put insurance on my phone, whenever i want.

bball4lf33 said:

I agree......as long as your phone is in proper working order and undamaged when you do it. 😉

Should you also be able to put auto insurance on AFTER an accident and have it cover past accidents? 😕

How about adding LIFE insurance after you die?
😳

dude... idc.
If something happens to my phone, and i need it fixed, how am i gonna get it fixed, if i didnt have insurance. I aint buying a whole new phone .

I think you miss-stated that.........It isn't IF something happens.....something ALREADY has happened to your phone!

😛 You dropped it in the water, right? 😉

I know that sucks and I feel bad for you damaging your new phone, BUT, Verizon offered you insurance in the beginning to cover the unexpected accidents and you choose NOT to take it. I'm sure that $4.99/mo. for insurance seems cheap now against spending a LOT of money for a new phone. ☹️

I wish I had a good solution for you. Maybe talk to them and see if ...
(continues)

How would i do that???

like I STATED JUST THREATEN VERIZON THAT YOU WILL LEAVE THEM OR ELSE. IT WORKS EVERYTIME.

REMEMBER VERIZON'S MOTTO......... YOUR PROBLEM BECOMES OUR PROBLEM THE FIRST TIME AND WILL WORK TO RESOLVE IT.

I HOLD THEM TO IT AND IF THEY CAN'T RESOLVE IT TO MY SATISFACTION, THAN GOOD RIDDENCE. 🤣

JIMSPOORBOX is obviously a VERIZON EMPLOYEE HAHAHAHAHA Lookie Mr. DoRight Preach! I have a solution for you, go play in traffic and hopefully something good will come of it. ;-)

I have to agree with jim. It was your accident. I have four phones from Verizon and carry insurance on only one of those. This is a calculated risk though. The one phone I carry it on is a V710 and the replacement cost justified the coverage. The other three were the 49.99 phones and did not justify the cost since replacing the phone through insurance costs 50.00 plus the monthly fees. I can get a new phone for the same price with the same or slightly newer features. Not so with the V710, especially considering how much I travel and it's potential for loss.

This IS a reflection of CHILDREN not being held responsible for their own actions. These will be the same CHILDREN that will complain that the insurance costs to much to buy in...

Listen up Mr. Do done Right # 2. I think you should just DRIFT off somewhere. You are abviously a Verizon employee and can't stand the fact that people like me always get their way. PLAIN AND SIMPLE if Verizon doesn't want to warrenty exchange my phone THEY do not have to. Am I holdiong a gun to their head??? It is my right to tell them that I WILL LEAVE after my contract ends if they don't exchange my phone out. They can simply turn me away and I will LEAVE but that will never happen. Did it ever occur to you that the CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT?? Think before you speak and grow up yourself and stop playing super hero justice man! 😁

You are incorrect that I am an employee. This is an unfortunate assumption that you have made. There is an old saying that refers to assumptions, but I will refrain from childish tantrums and make my point using other means.

Yes I have a problem with people like you always getting your way. People like you refuse to accept responsibility for your own decisions and actions and expect someone else to accept the blame. The truly unfortunate part is your mistake now costs me and every other HONEST person money. Because you lie and cheat to get an upgrade or a replacement when you do not need one you have now raised the price of the items across the board.

I apparently do apply much more thought before I speak than you yourself do. ...

This is the kind of attitude I expect to see from someone whose mom and dad bought them a Lexus in HS.

Should have thought ahead like I did and bought the insurance when it was offered, within the time Verizon offers for insurance purchase.

What?!

if you fu*k up and drop your phone, you should have been smart enough to purchase insurance in the first place. If not, then yes, you should pay retail price for a new phone. And if you don't want to, then you shoiuldn't have cellular service. Plain and simple.

LOL I think I am goin to git me a samsung A970 in your honour LOL!!!!!!!!!!! Your payin for it and I am eatin it. LOL You stupid fu**** NIMROD! 🤣

u verizon ppl's are idiots seriously!
If i dont get insurance.. and my phone gets screwed by water, or even if nothing happens to it, ur tellin me i cant call back a month later and say i want insurance now. Ppl do change there minds.
If i dont want insurance the first moment i get the phone i shouldnt have to get it. Nobody told me i had to get it now or i couldnt get it at all.
I see yaw dont have a problem with me adding v-cast or mobile whenever i want, so i wht cant i add insurance, something that i need.
