iPad pro insurance

andrewstevenson — Sat, 14 Nov 2015 10:09:14 GMT

Well been having some chats with o2 saying there should be insurance before the end of the month. But as I said to o2 they should have waited and sorted insurance, I got a helpful collegue who I asked before I said any of this. The reason is (maybe) there is not a lot of iPad pro available and they like to know they have one to give if a claim, so they are creating a new plan exclusively for iPad pro

Not sure why O2 would favour Apple products? Oh wait.....apparently 'official word' is....they don't.....

No updates on the insurance but got Apple care so Apple can deal with hardware and software issues and two cases of accidental damage. I walked into a Apple Store they denied they had the Logitech keyboard £109 and that they only had the Apple one £139 surprise there was 32 of Logitech

Lets hope you don't lose it , get it wet...or have it stolen @andrewstevenson. Apple care certainly wont cover you for that

I know that's the worst thing, I checked with my house insurance and I'm covered for that until o2 get things fixed

Most good home insurance policies cover personal items, I had a laptop replaced that the dog knocked off a table. Clumsy Springer Spaniels...can't see the mains lead

Actually, AppleCare does cover you for water damage. But as you say, you are not covered for loss or theft.

I think she meant the standard apple warranty.

Of course I did @viridis. However I would seriously doubt even the extended cover provided by Apple Care would consider a phone dropped in the bath ...or launched off a pier into the sea as 'water damaged' ...

Well insurance is fully available to purchase on the iPad pro for £14 a month, but I can't add it yet as I'm on a staff tariff and I start paying 13th December. Then I was told this might also affect iPad pro customers trying to add insurance to iPad pro any customers managed it
