Mishaps, My Foot! I Told Him To Get Smartphone Insurance

0 comments

I don’t know about you, but I have always been one to have smartphone insurance.  It’s one of those things I would rather have and not need than to need and not have..  My husband used to think I worried too much.  I never thought about it as worrying too much, I just love my stuff and didn’t want anything to happen to it.  Anyway, my husband and I were talking about all the crazy disasters we’ve shared, which lead to talking about a certain disaster my husband tried to say was a small mishap….  NOPE, it wasn’t! I told him he should have the insurance, it’s better to be safe than sorry.  However, since his “mishaps” he has always made sure to have insurance, even on his SUPER phone.

My husband and I were talking about all the small disasters that have happened over the years, which have ended up costing us a nice chunk of change.  Gosh, phone after phone.. I can’t tell you how many phones Mattie tossed in the toilet and said bye-bye to before flushing.  OMG, it was at least three, and it was one right after the other.  I think I was without a phone more than I had one that month.

Oh, then there was the time my husband thought he was so cool with his new cell phone.  It was one of those military tough phones.  Yea, the ones you’re not supposed to be able to break, crack the screen, or hurt it in anyway… It’s basically a cockroach in the world of cell phones.  Well, he had the phone for two weeks, and let me remind you we paid almost $300 for this phone, he didn’t need insurance on it because it was just such an amazing device insurance would have been a waste of money… HA, wife wins yet again…  You think he would just stop and listen after all these issues, but he doesn’t.  Oh, so the phone!

My husband was outside loading up the racecar and I was inside getting the kids ready.  Of course, we’re both having all sorts of problems, and since he was so cool with his new phone he pulled it out to use the flashlight on it, like it’s some tool or something.  I even poked my head out the window and reminded him it wasn’t a tool, giggled and went back inside.  Well, I’ll be darned if about five minutes later I didn’t hear him say a bad word all the way inside. 

I ran outside, I’m a mom, we have four kids, my husband NEVER does that so I thought something happened to one of the kids.  Well, come to find out Shawn ran over his phone, NOT just ran over it, but let me tell you…

He sat the phone down behind the trailer tire, where he was using the flashlight. He left his phone on the ground while he jumped in the truck to back up the trailer, which ran over the phone 4 times, but 2 of the tires only had the weight of the trailer, the other two had the truck.  Lucky for him at this point the car wasn’t on the trailer.  Well, he gets out, loads the car AND PULLS BACK UP!  While he’s out checking all the straps and everything he sees his phone, which still works I might add, but it did have a cracked screen. 

He ended up using that phone, with the cracked screen for almost a year.  Thankfully it work, but had he NOT been so cocky about it being such a tough phone it didn’t need insurance, we would have been able to get it replaced. 

At the end of the day, don’t think your phone is too cool for insurance!  Seriously, there is no such thing as too cheap, tough, or will not happen to me.  I have four children, and a husband who can break unbreakable phones.  If I have learned anything over the past few years, it’s be prepared and Protect Your Bubble.
