mobile insurance cockup need help

right when i purchased my iphone 3g on launch day last year i took out the insurance on the same day...

havent thought about it or used it until recently i dropped my phone and cracked the back so want a replacement, called o2 to be told i had no insurance... was 100% sure i did so they said check your store receipt and let us know.

found the receipt and it said insurance on it also, emailed it through to o2 they said fine they can put it back on my account but!!!! i have to pay the 13months they forgot to take the money for... somehow they are saying its my fault and i have to pay for the full 13months before i can make a claim, they are not willing to help me at all and have kept me on hold for 55mins

am i being silly to expect them to waiver the fee?? i know if it had been on the account and they had been taken the money i would of paid the 130 however 10 quid a month is easier than having to fork out 130 for their mistake??

what should i do?

Hmmm what bank are you with as some banks offer it for free with your account.

Natwest does it for free. I just use that although I have never had to make a claim yet.

Pmsl Malice that is the funniest thing I've read for a while!!! :)

"Mum the nasty man at O2 won't be nice to me"

mum runs into the room and rolls up her sleeves

"il sort the c**t out"

I imagine she also threatened to smack him with a rolling pin or make him eat fairy liquid!

:) :)

some of you may have laughed at me for getting my mum to do it, however lol, they replaced it with a brand new phone, not just that i went from and iphone 3g 16g black to a iphone 3gs in white, free of charge no upgrade fee just a straight swap :)

Can I borrow your mum to ring up for me???
