AT&T to Offer Insurance on All Devices Starting June 2nd
Humberto SaabedraIn a rather belated move long requested by customers and confirmed by many AT&T Mobility employees, AT&T will reverse its longstanding policy of not insuring high-end devices by extending insurance coverage to any device offered by the carrier for $4.99 with a $50 deductible, including smart devices.
This makes AT&T the last carrier in the country to offer insurance coverage on both high-end devices and smart devices owing to the reluctance of the former Cingular Wireless, and their refusal to insure devices past a certain value fearing losses from expensive devices such as the Tilt.
