Insurance - Anything new?

[MNJON]

Has anyone been able to get any kind of theft/loss insurance on their iPhones? I did a search but didn't find anything that appeared to show any source for insurance.

Thanks!

I have a State Farm Personal Article Policy (PAP). I know that they're still offering them in Florida but other states no longer offer the PAP for iPhones (I know Arizona did initially, but not anymore). I would just call your local State Farm agent and ask about a PAP. Mine was about $50 a year, covers all accidental damage, theft and loss with a $0 deductible.

I got a separate policy with the company that does my home owners.
its like one that you would get for jewelry or something.
Cost me like $50 for the policy with a $30 deductible.
covers everything, lost, theft, breakage. i asked the guy if i threw it in the lake would they pay and he said yes.

Thanks. I do have State Farm for my cars and home, but they won't do a PAP for any phone here in MN. It sucks having NO coverage on such an item.
