Asurion question - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Thinking about trading my black myst mdk for a white one my buddy has. I do have asurion on my phone, anyone know if they would cover the white one if I do trade or do they only cover this specific phone?

This is NOT true.
The insurance you have will transfer over to your new phone. I picked up a couple of S4's for my parents a week ago and the insurance stayed on their lines. It did this automatically once the phones were activated.

However if you buy a craigslist phone and attach it to the account. It will not be covered under insurance. Tried.

Great question! Your coverage is on the line, not the specific device. While we do cover the device active on the line at the time of peril, keep in mind you may be asked for a proof of purchase should you need to file a claim. We welcome you to review the terms and conditions of your coverage at phoneclaim. com. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance. Thanks!

Not so sure of that. I latched on to mine via Craigslist. Happened to be a Verizon employee with an upgrade due and wanted some cash so I ended up with a brand new S4 and transfered my SIM from my Droid Razr Maxx to it and activated it. And whatever he did to help me with this process, was able to transfer my existing Asurion ins. to it.

Purchasing from a third party does come with inherent risks. For this reason, we encourage our customers to purchase directly from the carrier. If you have questions about your claim, one of our specialists would be happy to look into your claim for you. Please send us a direct message on Twitter @AsurionCares with your claim number and the best contact number for you. Be sure to include #xdaforum so we can easily identify your response. If Twitter is not convenient, we also welcome you to email the same information to us at [email protected]. Thanks!

Hmmm... Is it just me that's thinking this... but when we include #xdaforum in a message... they would know that we're rooted/modded and then decline the claim? I think everyone is pretty much rooted and their devices are modified in some kind of way. Nice try though...

It might be just me but I do not like the fact Asurion is starting to patrol xda... I might just be paranoid... Dam you NSA for making me paranoid

So in my case, I'm continuing to pay for insurance that won't actually provide me with coverage since purchasing from a Verizon Rep selling a brand new (his upgrade) S4 via craigslist. Hrmmmm, I've been bull****ted again..

Actually I just called Verizon directly and explained the situation. They informed me that I am still covered under Asurion Insurance and it was simply a transfer from my previous device to this one SINCE my S4 was in a brand new state and I am the only one that ever activated via it's MIED # or whatever. Now for someone purchasing a "Used" device off ebay, craigslist, ect... the former issue of no coverage would be true in their case.

That is certainly true. AT&T also doesn't push any phones beside Samsung, HTC, and Apple. When I was looking at Sony phones my two local AT&T stores didn't even have them on display.

I've also seen some in Texas. Also, anecdotally two of the AT&T stores near me were completely sold out of the OG when I was trying to get my phone replaced for what the techs chalked up to a hardware issue. They are selling, but still nowhere near a similar HTC or Samsung phone in a likelihood.

Actually, even if LG unlocked it to be just like the N4 AT&T would never allow that update, they absolutely hate their users having root or anything xda generally strives for.
My guess is that, among other things, it is so easy to tether/hotspot once rooted without paying for such a plan.

Well... if they only carried 2 as opposed to the 20+ Samsung/HTC phones... it wouldn't be THAT difficult to sell out.
I thought I was getting a steal when i bought it at best buy for 99 which turned out to be 146 due to California taxes. Considering returning it here at school (not cali) just to go to Costco and buy it for 100$ less. Anyone know if that evens possible now that its already been two weeks and am locked into my att contract?

i think best buy has a 14 day return policy, plus a restocking fee
At Sprint, they tell us to push iPhone. If a customer wants an Android, we are supposed to push them to iPhone. I, of course, do not follow this at all and am straight up with the customers.

as far as i know, they dont have a restocking fee and the return policy is 30 days. I am more concerned whether it is even possible for me to retunr the phone and go to costco to buy a new one even though i am already locked in on contract
As long as you are in the return window, once you return it they reset your "upgrade" with ATT so you will be back to same status you were before the purchase

[Q] Has anyone had a phone replaced through Best Buy insurance?

I have the insurance plan, will they replace a phone with accidental damage? Please share any replacement experience with BB. Thank you.
Yes they will replace it

Do they replace it in store? Or should I plan on being without a device for a bit while a replacement ships?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Depends on availability and what their pos system says
Edit: they'll give you a loaner phone if they have to ship you a new one
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2
Typically takes 1-3 business days. They offer you a loaner if you need, but it's usually a dumb phone. If you have an unused handset, they'll even switch your service over to it for you, instead, and they set up the new phone again when it arrives. No problem with water damage or anything. No limit on number of claims (my wife has tested both). Only real limitation is that they won't replace it if you lose it. Even a baggie of recognizable parts should suffice. I'll never use Verizon insurance again, and now buy all my phone through best buy.
Wow that is awesome. I'm glad I paid the 130 or so when I got this device.

Reported Stolen G2 which was purchased on Swappa

So here is the long story short, I bought a Verizon lg g2 back in November 2013. 4 days ago my phone stopped picking up service after I put my sim back in it from the gs3 (my g2 had died that's why I switched to my gs3). I called Verizon to see what was going on, they told me they didn't know. They asked where did I purchase the phone I told them and then they said that the phone was reported stolen on a fraudulent account. So my Question is is there any place I can sell my phone to try to get something back for it?

You might want to try unlocking it and use another carrier. Who ever sold you was probably doing insurance fraud. But usually when a phone is locked like that its only locked to the carrier. I had a S4 locked for tmobile. I unlocked it and used ATT . couldnt use tmobile no more

Thank you for the tip I just remembered that the Verizon g2 is unlocked default. I'm going to try a friends Tmobile sim and see if it works. I don't know what that person was doing but sounds like that is what they could of been doing because he had a lot of g2 and was selling them cheap. He is still active on swappa too.

I've tried by emailing them and they just suggested to talk to the seller, another swappa mod told me to fill out the required form in order to he helped. I honestly am not satisfied with how swappa treated me and will not be buying from there again.

If this guy knowingly sold you a phone he has or had reported stolen then you do have a solid leg to stand on. I would begin with you local law enforcement. IMEI numbers, IP Addresses and subpoenas to devuldge info on the Swappa users account will gain them all the info they need to proceed with filing charges. What's even better is I'm assuming most likely the phone you bought came from out of state so crossing a state line now opens the door for federal statutes. You might be surprised how willing and eager your local law enforcement might be to handle this for you, especially if you have your ducks in a row and necessary info on hand prior to your meeting with them.

Swappa checks all of the IMEI's to make sure they're clean as well, but from what Krazie1 is saying it sounds like the phone he bought was reported after he bought and activated it. Even Verizon would have told him it was clean.

Yah, I'm very well aware that Swappa checks the imei# for each listing. Plus, I understand what krazie1 has stated about the phone being reported stolen. I'm not doubting the phone was reported stolen. I'm just saying that, if you just slip your SIM card into the phone that's not yours I'd feel there's greater risk then if you take it to Verizon. I know I'd have a better chance of having the situation resolved if I took my phone to them. Especially, after it was reported stolen well over thirty days. The part that is unsettling to me is that the phone was new. I sell and buy often on Swappa so I'm not happy to hear about krazie1's situation. The seller has sold over a hundred phones. I feel, if I went to Verizon, I'd keep bugging them because of the situation. If I just slipped my SIM card in then I'd feel like I didn't have a chance. That's just my thoughts.

Gotcha -- you're saying that if they are the ones who give the all clear you have a leg to stand on later if the IMEI gets blocked. That makes sense.

Yep, exactly. I wish there was a sensible way to make the situation right. Logotech_cell should step up and resolve the issue. If he doesn't, Swappa should ban him!

Has anyone recently received a replacement from Asurion?

I'm thinking of sending my current MDK phone to Asurion for a replacement because of some scratches on the housing and screen but since the phone is about 7-8 months old I'm scared they'd send me an updated replacement
So I'd thought I'd try and ask here. Thanks for any replies

OP - You will get an updated phone.
If MDK is of value, you are now off the ranch and need to go have someone replace the screen for you.
For the amount of the deductible ($100) someone can replace the screen.

The way I read the asurion person is they will send you a s4. If you get it and its not what you want (mdk). Send it back and cancel. What have you got to lose.

I've had a problem with a phone before and had asurion send me another one but the sound wasn't good coming through the ear peace so I sent it back and used the old phone for another couple months before trying to get them to send me another one. I just broke my screen last night and are looking for ways to replace the screen without having to send for a replacement cause I'm also on mdk. This really sucks! :banghead: but I'm thinking I'd rather have a non busted screen over unlocked bootloader. :what:

I've had a problem with a phone before and had asurion send me another one but the sound wasn't good coming through the ear peace so I sent it back and used the old phone for another couple months before trying to get them to send me another one. I just broke my screen last night and are looking for ways to replace the screen without having to send for a replacement cause I'm also on mdk. This really sucks! :banghead: but I'm thinking I'd rather have a non busted screen over unlocked bootloader. :what:

Yeah i have an MDK S4 on Swppa.com and there are a few more with MDK. The problem with getting someone to replace the glass is a lot of times they are just tempered glass not gorilla glass. Also, the heat needed to get the glue to release from the digitizer isn't good for the other components, so to do it right you need to take all of the components out. If the digitizer is also bad then you're looking at roughly $180-$220 to replace it and the glass.

Even more off topic here but... What did you end up getting or are going to get since you're selling the S4?
