    I got an O2 iPhone4 nearly two years ago, which I insured with them. I bought it outright and would not be able to do so again so I really need it insured. I now want to leave O2 for Tesco Mobile. All of the independent insurers I've looked up online say the phone must be less than 18 months old to get it insured. Is there any company that will insure my phone, or am I stuck with O2?

    If you payed €10-13 per month for 18 months in insurance which is the average rate you could buy a new iP4 for the same cost that is why. Phone insurance is a cope out after you buy a top end phone that is over 12 months old. Been there done that and never again. The insurance cost cost me more than the replacement phone I got when I needed it, it would have been cheaper to buy one on a contract that I was already in at the time.
