    How is this bike related? It will be if I come off!

    Do I need to insure my iphone or is the insurance a waste of money? 02 want £12.50 a month which is a lot of money, Protect your bubble will insure it for £6.99 all in but when you read the small print unless you get run over by a bus whilst holding your mobile and it gets crushed when still in your hand, and its not a tuesday afternoon then you will not get your phone replaced. And its noteworthy that it is not a new for old policy either?

    Do these phone go wrong machanically, should I be concerned?

    What is the best thing to do :confused:

    I get my insurance for my phone from my bank (natwest) with the gold account also green flag and a few other bits and bobs, does your bank offer the same sort of cover ?

    I have had my I phone 4 for over a year and no problems so far :) Its more likely you will lose it or drop it I guess

    Thanks for that, I will investigate all three options, I know my bank keeps offering an upgraded account but I didn,t want to incur a fee, however, if I'm getting something out of it, it may be worth investigating?
