Samsung Galaxy insurance

Phones are a huge part of our lives, keeping us entertained and connected to our friends and loved ones on a day to day basis. So to suddenly have to replace it due to a drop or spill can be a hassle (not to mention, expensive) to sort out – especially if you’ve got the latest Samsung model!

Samsung galaxy insurance will protect your smartphone from risks such as theft, drops, spills and scratches, either at home or while you're out and about.

Endsleigh’s phone policies will provide cover against theft, accidental and liquid damage, as well as:

24 hour replacement

Stay connected when it matters most with 24 hour replacement once your claim is approved.

Mechanical breakdown

Go Premium for 5* defaqto rated cover that includes protection against mechanical breakdown.

Worldwide cover

If you’re taking some time out to go travelling, make sure your phone is protected from mishaps abroad. Our Samsung phone insurance provides protection for your phone anywhere in the UK, and up to 120 days worldwide when you go Premium.

We can provide cover for any Samsung phone model, including:

• Samsung S20 insurance
• Samsung S10 insurance
• Samsung S10 Plus insurance
• Samsung S9 insurance
• Samsung S8 insurance

If you have a brand new Samsung smartphone, you may have a warranty in place which will usually protect you against things like mechanical failure. However, this will not protect your phone against accidental damage – such as if you were to drop your phone, crack the screen or spill a drink on it. Therefore, if you want to financially protect your smartphone against these risks you may want to consider investing in smartphone insurance.

Before taking out your own mobile phone insurance policy, check that it isn’t already covered under your home insurance as some policies include this cover as standard, or you may be able to pay an additional premium to add it as a specified item.

However, if you do already have cover for your phone under your home insurance, it’s also important to check your policy documents to find out exactly what’s covered - you may find that your home insurance policy doesn’t provide the level of cover for your phone that you would receive with a separate Samsung phone insurance.

Here’s a summary of some of the things that won’t be covered under your Samsung phone cover with Endsleigh - but please check your policy wording for a full list of exclusions.

• Loss, theft or damage to the gadget if left unattended away from the risk address
• Theft from the risk address when it is unoccupied
• Theft from an unattended vehicle (unless its concealed in a locked boot or glove compartment and all security systems have been activated)
• Any gadget used for business, trade or professional purposes
• Malicious damage that has not been reported to the police
• Accidental damage that resulted from you not following the manufacturer’s instructions
• Gadgets over three years old at the time the policy is purchased

How we settle claims

This is not a ‘replacement as new’ policy, so please note that if your phone can’t be replaced with an identical model of the same age and condition, we’ll replace it with one that is of a similar specification or the equivalent value (taking into account the age and condition of the original phone). This may mean that your new phone will not be the exact same colour as the original.

Where an equivalent refurbished item is not available, we will offer vouchers or a cash settlement.

We are only able to offer cover for mobile phones that are less than three years old at the time the policy starts.

We are also unable to offer cover for any pre-existing damage, such as if your screen is cracked or showing signs of water damage.

It only takes a small knock to crack a phone screen, but it can be an expensive business getting it repaired. That’s why we include cover for cracked screens as standard.

For each claim, you'll pay the first £50 except for a loss claim where you'll need to pay the first £75 of the claim.
