Re: Asurion increasing deductible from $50 to $100 on "tier 2" phones

I've had the insurance for some time now. When I had the 6700 I use to drop and crack the screen all the damn time. For awhile, I would claim it stolen and pay a $50 deductible. As recently as last month, I received a Mogul refurb (finally), but it ran extremely slow and so I wanted to replace it. Sprint said I would need to pay a deductible.. so I cracked the screen, took it in, and they replaced it for free. Hope this method helps anyone avoid paying the deductible. $7 a month is enough.

And there you have it. Another fine example of why the deductible is going up for the people who are actually honest and do things the right way.

Too many people have abused the system and this is what we get.

So instead of bothering to fix it correctly, you made a fraudulent insurance claim??

Everybody make sure you hit the thanks button for all the posters like this everytime you get hit for $100 when you make an honest claim.......
