Better Gearup Your EVO LTE! - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I dropped mine last night & cracked the screen
It still works, but I'm going to have to pay the $100 deductible to get replaced via insurance now...
My threw, by accident, my last 2 EVOs several times & never broke a screen.. I guess it was only a matter of time!

Actually, I think it will be $200 for LTE phones (based on SRP), making the insurance nearly pointless, considering it will be $11 a month + $200 deductible.

Hey question. What happens if you buy the $170 for 2 years but upgrade your phone in 1 year. Does it roll over to the next phone or is it refunded?

I'm not sure, just pay the monthly fee if you think you're only going to have the phone a year.

Wow really? I will be dropping it too

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

Only if you use more than 2gb a month and need the speed. Otherwise T-Mo has a deal right now. Two lines of service, unlimited text/talk/data for $49.99 per line. However, after 2gb data it throttles the speed to 2G speeds...
But hey, for a casual couple/family, that is an amazing deal. If not for getting the Evo3D we would probably switch and save $50 a month and get more minutes. So far, the most data I've used in a month has been 3gb, but I average only about 1.2-1.5gb a month.
I avg 8gb on my phone and 4gb on my wifes. But we do not have home internet we tether for free.

The $1 increase is still worth it to me. You never know what will happen and with TEP you are covered for anything pretty much. My sister just messed up her brand new Iphone and didn't have insurance. Now she's pretty much screwed. I told her dumbass husband to get the insurance, but just like most people, he didn't.
Your complaining about a dollar increase ? Why was this topic started. Bro how you get the 3d can't even pay 1$ more a month.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Screw their insurance, I canceled mine when it went from $5 to $7. I have saved more than enough since I cancelled TEP to outright buy new phones, without accounting for the ridiculous $100.00 deductible.
My 370ZX cost less to insure per dollar, with no deductible.

Wiid is good for you
I would never pay more than 1-200 dollars for a phone. Anyone pays 4-500 dollars for a freakin phone to have for 1-2 years is crazy. **** I bought my sons first car for 600 dollars 2 years ago. If i pay 500$ for a phone I can be positive that within the next year or two there is gonna be a better phone out that I am gonna want. No way I'm paying that much

Verizon Switched Me From the Charge to the Rezound!

After a month of nagging I finally got bumped up to the rezound for free. Well sort of, I was forced to pay $50 for the battery and battery cover plus next day shipping, but hey I'm not complaining!
So this is my first htc device and I was wondering what I can expect. I know bootloaders are locked unlike samsung devices, but that's pretty much it. If anybody could fill me in on some general knowledge I'd be forever grateful!
haha paid for battery/cover huh? that means they sent you a refurb, most likely i assume?
I am actually getting a Rezound shipped to me as well for a Charge replacement as well. My total came to like $30 with my discount for the battery and cover.
Yea these are basically refurb's or Certified Like New as they like to call them. So I should have mine early next week because I didn't pay for overnight shipping.

Yeah, I'm getting a refurb which means no iBeats, but whatever. I'd end up loosing them in a week anyways.
They exchanged my buddies 3 month old Bionic for free for a brand new Rezound w/ accessories. Seems like they have found a way to make their money off people.

I don't think they really do it to make money because the woman I spoke with gave me the option to buy the battery/cover from somewhere like Amazon if I wanted.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
If they give you a new device they lose money. Sending you a refurb with no battery/cover means they aren't losing anything, especially since you paid for your original device. The rep doesn't make commission selling you accessories so she had nothing to lose advising you about buying elsewhere. The point is, so many people have been trying to trade in their devices they have figured out a way to not take the hit from it.
I would try my hardest to get those iBeats. If you are getting the phone you should get all the accessories with it. This is not replacing a Rezound, which wouldn't ship the accessories.
Haha sucks to be you I got mine with everything free.

I wouldn't be overly worried about the ibeats, they are nothing special except they are worth $100 if you go out and buy them.

Not everybody was fortunate enough to talk to the angel of all tier 2 techs. And it was $30 for the back and battery. I paid the extra $20 to get overnight for those two. I wasn't going to be staring at a paperweight rezound for a week until I got the battery.
When i had an upgrade from citrus to the samsung continuum, they sent the phone free and i went to the vzn store and told em they didnt give me a back or battery, so it was all free

Hopefully. I'll find out tomorrow!
I received mine yesterday and it was just the phone (with a back cover though) in the box. So I was a little disappointed, I was hoping I would get a "kit" like I did when I got my Charge as a replacement for my old Fascinate which came with everything including the retail box.
So I called and tried to see if there was a way I could get the kit and I was basically told that it all depends on what the manager that originally approved it agreed to (plus she said that she doesn't even think that there were any kits available from HTC). So what she did to offset the cost I paid for the battery and cover was to give me a $9.99 credit for each of my lines (2 lines) for 2 months. So basically I made money off of this since I only paid $32 with tax for the cover and battery and will be getting $40 in credits.
So I guess it is better than nothing, but I was hoping to get the iBeats headphones to try out.

Cause he's a douche bag.

Asurion has them in stock... Cracked screen with pictures.

While testing out some lighting I handed the phone to a friend to see how well the camera handles different types of lighting. Needless to say it slipped out of his hands when he jumped from a wasp frightening him. Drop from a little higher than waist high, but it did slide a little. Touch screen still works, but some pieces of glass did fall off (it chipped in layers- there's still glass just seems to be missing the top layer on some parts of the crack.
Photos to be up soon just got my replacement from asurion in ~3 days (was quoted 10-14). It's also new not a refurb . Otterbox on its way also.
Most surprising part was how badly the edge got muffed up was expecting the metal (aluminum?) piece to be a little harder and not this soft.
Focus goes really bad here sorry. The next one shows the crack went all the across the screen I think it spread after a day.
This one shows how badly the bezel got scratched up.
And the phone barely fits in the asurion envelope

It was my fault for handing the phone to a friend without any protection on it . Although the back is pretty smooth I like to blame the thinness of the phone.

$100.
I called sprint before setting up the claim on phoneclaim to make sure because I too thought it was $150. Didn't want to muck anything up by asking about the $150. But still it's amazing how the asurion guy quoted sprint (who then told me) I'd get it within 10-14 days because they had no stock but instead got it in 3.

Just said bye to the old El Tevo it went out to the mail today.

I wish Sprint and Asurion would change the pricing based on past usage of the program. If you haven't replaced a phone in X months/years, then you should get Y% off of your premium/deductible. I am debating another option because $11/mth is just ridiculous.

Even with a bad ESN the phone is worth something. Plus from what I've read a lot of people claim the phone as lost or stolen in the insurance claim for things like cracked screens wait ~30 days then post it up for sale or call and claim they found it and try to get it taken of the esn blacklist... Also suprsingly the asurion envelopes don't have tracking #s...

What other options do we have for insurance? I'd like to look at other options because I'm sick of sending Sprint more and more money for them to take perks away.

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!

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.

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.

I don't know.
I've gotten 3 phones replaced (broken screen, broken charging port, and obvious water damage) all without paying the deductible. Guess the people at my sprint store like me lol

Wow. I've had to pay $100 about 6 times for my EVO 3D. Was fluckin' pissed. I've had nothing but bad customer service at any sprint store and with almost every sprint rep.

You gotta be kidding me. I guess I have dumbass written all over me. But then again... I've only been a sprint customer for 8 years. Lmao.

I was told my deductible on the LTE EVO is $150.

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.

Any time I've went into sprint they tell me I need to call asirion or they tell me they will do it for me. Tried different reps on different days even. Or they would tell me to downgrade to an EVO shift or EVO og.

BB black tie works great IMO, no hassles, new device and no questions for $10mo.

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.
