Wireless Handset Insurance Now Available on the Samsung Blackjack
Posted by Rocco Augusto in "Smartphone Talk" @ 12:38 PM
"Samsung Blackjack is now eligible for Wireless Phone Insurance. As of August 7, 2007, the Blackjack is added to the insurance-eligible list. All portal eligibility listings are being updated at this time. All channels can begin offering Wireless Phone Insurance on the Blackjack to new activations, upgrades, and to any customer still within their 30 day enrollment period as of August 7, 2007 with this device. "
All I can say is, “It's about time!” As long as I can remember, I have been annoyed with AT&T/Cingular's stance on not allowing users to add insurance to smartphones — not just Microsoft Smartphones, but all smartphones! It seems as though AT&T is finally starting to wise up by allowing all new customer who have purchased the Samsung Blackjack to add insurance to the handset. Unfortunately, if you are not a new customer, or out of your 30-day grace period, you will not qualify for this must have feature! Hopefully this changes in the very near future! During my time with Cingular, I have seen hundreds of water damaged and destroyed handsets. To not have insurance on a phone that is so expensive is ridiculous!
