Depends what you want fixed

just the touch screen digitizer i guess =(

they won't warranty you for that, you need insurance. if not, go buy a new digitizer and replace it yourself.

yea im paying 5 $ a moth for insurance so i could just call them and they will give me a new one?

There is usually a deductible on that still, you are better off (as others suggested) hitting amazon or ebay and buying the screen and replacing it it is pretty easy.

well i think you're still payin a $175 deductible or something ridiculous, so you may as well just replace the digitizer yourself.

It's a $125 deductible. Even if you decided to file it on insurance tell them you lost it so you don't have to send it in. Keep the old one for spare parts or fix it one day and sell it.

new screen+digitizer is $30 on amazon.

AT&T is a $50 insurance deductible. Don't know where the high numbers come from which people are posting. I have had many phones replaced on insurance given I have 5 on my plan, 3 for the kids.
<edit> Except my iPhone which they won't bloody insure.

The deductible for ATT on this phone is $125.00. I was a bit taken aback as well. I have had several phones replaced by insurance and they were only50 before.

Did you go to a store or call the warranty dept? I just read a post in another forum where someone paid $100 to exchange a phone, and she should have only paid $50 if she called warranty dept. I'm calling them now to ask.

I used phoneclaim.com.

I stand corrected. My apologies. Business care told me when I bought this phone they should have told me the replacement cost is $125. Nobody in store mentioned it. Par for the course with AT&T I guess!
Beamed from WinBorg 4G via XDA Premium

There's 2 tiers
Regular phones = $50 deductible
fancy smartphone = $125 deductible
I forget when they implemented it...within the past year i think. It used to be all $50.

That sucks you dropped your evo. I had mine without a case for a couple days but I went and picked up an otterbox defender today.
Can anyone link to anything that says the deductible is different then $100? I haven't heard this yet. I don't have TEP on my girls Evo LTE bc I don't do a ton of deving/modding on her phone like I do my own, but with my own I carry TEP because I go through two phones a year or so and it's worth it for me... Heard the monthly fee was going up but not the deductible.

Otter Box Defender is the only way to go. I bought one for my last Evo and will not own another phone again without one. Well worth the $50, cheaper than a deductible and it has to sustain one hell of an impact to cause any damage. The built-in screen protector works pretty damn good too.
It makes the phone bigger but I think it sits in my pockets better when I go to sit down. You know, not sliding down and weighing down your pocket when you are driving or sitting down to eat.

If you never used your protection plan once then u can go into the store and have them do a standard return the u get a prorated charge back. If you used it once then u can't get a refund but the protection is good for your phone for 2 years from date of purchase.
I bought it on my phone and I got rid of it in 6 months. I ended up getting $146 back. This was before I started working at best buy.

They sign you up for automatic payments from a debit/credit card. Now you just have to remember to keep $10/month in that account to pay for it

March is open enrollment for Sprint TEP Insurance

http://newsroom.sprint.com/article_display.cfm?article_id=2522
no way
There is a non-refundable deductible ranging from $50 to $200 per approved claim for lost, stolen or damaged (physical or liquid) phones.
Screw that. Extended warranties are a cash cow for them and a bad deal for the consumer.
I was originally lied to when I signed up. They told me that I just get a brand new device if anything happens to mine. Screen broke, brought it in, and they asked for $100. I told them they never told me about any deductible but they insisted that I was lying. Fought it over and over, got to a higher up, they dropped it to $50, and got my new phone. **** Sprint. They wouldn't hire me because I was too honest. Once I get this new job I will gladly pay my early termination fee and ditch this B.S. and cannot wait!

My experience as well. Right now I have TEP AND asurion cuz asurion covers loss, while BB covers water damage, which TEP doesn't. . been trying to figure which one to cancel, but I know if I lose it, I'll mid asurion, if I drop it in the toilet, I'll wish I still had BB insurance. Either way, I lose.

I think it's always open enrollment actually. I bought this phone couple months ago off craigslist for 160 and called to activate. The girl almost begged me to sign up for insurance.
When i got out of school i got a job selling appliances. Any extended warranty we sold we
got 28.5%. Good salespeople made much more selling plans than appliances.

You normally dodge a deductible when you deal with Sprint, in person. Over the phone, you'll be directed to use Asurion which 9/10 guarantees you'll be paying that deductible.
You can't avoid it (Asurion) if you've lost the phone & barely avoid it with water damage.

Sent from my Evo 4G LTE using xda app-developers app
My previous post I typed I have TEP AND asurion. Oops. I meant TEP and BB black tie. Can't decide which to get rid of. BB has no deductible, but doesn't cover loss/theft. I found out the hard way. I lost my Evo 2mo after I bought it and I had cancelled my TEP and had BB insurance, had to buy a new Evo full price. When I did, I started asurion/TEP again.
Still haven't cancelled BB. I know I'm getting ripped off paying for both? I just can't decide which to keep.

If it's a reproducible problem you might be able to get out of restocking...if it's intermittent, probably not. The fee is $50.

I am a RSA in a T-mobile Corp Store. From T-Mobiles return/exchange policy there is a $50 fee for return/exchange for most smartphones. Some of the smartphones have a $75 fee like the Note 2 and the Iphone 5. The Manger has to override the restocking fee and most mangers will not override it unless you can show us the problem in the store. There is no known issue right now about reboots in our internal system. I am not saying that it isn't a issue but I have yet to see any HTC One reboot that I have sold. Most of the time if you want to exchange the phone for the same model the fee is removed. If you want to change to a different phone or just do a full return the fee is almost always charged unless we see the problem.

T-Mobile also replaces your phone for one year (refurbished), or if you have the insurance bundle they will always replace it. They send it next day air, then you return the defective phone. It's $5 if you have insurance or $25 if you don't.

Its what we have been told when we tell customers. Its pretty much just like the new PHP costs. If you get PHP for your phone and the full bundle is $11.99 your phone most likely has a $75 restocking fee. I am sure it is because of the cost of the phone. The Note 2 is a $700 phone where the GS3 is a $500 phone. I know the HTC One for PHP is $11.99. We were told to put the $75 restocking fee sticker on the phone for customers to know. Also if you look your re receipt it talks about it there as well. I think T-Mobile calls the $75 ones super phones where the $50 ones are called smartphones.

How to get warranty?

So I just traded my iPhone 5 for and HTC one, I'm not the cover type of guy. So I put on it a ghost armor protector, but wanted to know if there was a way to add warranty to it ? Specially accidental damage protection

you can add it only when you buy the phone from AT&T but it has a 200 deductible
I'd suggest squaretrade or one of the other 3rd parties.
I AT&T warranties their branded phones for 1 year no matter where you bought it from. But doesn't cover breakage from drops, getting wet etc.

You have to make a transaction to get a warranty with them along with most if not all extended warranty plans. Here are two ways you can get a warranty.
1. If the person you traded the phone with had purchased the phone using a premium credit card that doubles your warranty for FREE, they can transfer it over to you as premium credit cards double the manufacturers warranty and "gifts for others" qualify as well. Not all credit cards are premium ones.
2. If they purchase a square and trade warranty for you since they are the original owner, they can transfer that warranty to you as it is tied to the IMEI number.
But if it was a trade with someone you never interact with or will ever see again then I don't know if any other way to help you.

He is the sole person that can help you get a warranty with Square and Trade. Trust me, I have 2 square and trade warranties and have had 2 other ones in the past. They will require you to file proof of purchase if a claim is submitted. Buying a warranty without this proof of purchase will waste your money.
Similarly, these are the pros and cons of purchasing things off of craigslist.

Do you lose grandfathered unlimited on Verizon when your next contract is up

Sorry , if this has been answered before. I haven't worried about losing my unlimited data because I was happy on my Rezound. Now, though I am really looking at one of the newer handsets coming out this fall. I realize if I subsidize the phone I will be forced to give up my unlimited , but I notice my contract is up in December . Will I be forced out of unlimited in December even if I choose not to upgrade my phone ? If so I might as well take a subsidized phone otherwise I lose plan regardless. Just wondering if anyone has gone through this process recently.
Thank you for any responses.
You dont lose your unlimited unless you make some types of changes to your current plan, or you upgrade without buying your new phone outright. You can also keep your current plan if you have insurance on your phone and make a claim,upgrading that way.

Like the post above don't make any changes to your plan and don't buy a new phone and sign a contract. Might wanna check out eBay or something for cheaper phone as new phones out right cost anywhere from 300-700 bucks.

I don't want to sound dumb but how does someone upgrade when making an insurance claim?

If they no longer carry your phone, they will give you one of equal value when you gotyour phone If they have none with same specs. At least that is how I upgraded from my Inc to Spectrum then this Rezound.
My replacements were through Verizon. Manufacturer Defect warranty. I pay for the extended warranty

Do your upgrade today if your contract is up (http://www.engadget.com/2013/09/29/verizon-wireless-website-unlimited-data-upgrade/)
I just bought an LG G2 while keeping unlimited. Used VZWDEALS as a promocode and got 50 more dollars off
