You are the owner or are responsible for a mobile phone, and where applicable a portable device, and believe protection against loss (for mobile phones only), theft, breakdown or damage to the phone or device would be beneficial to you. You have been advised of the details of the policy in the Policy Summary, including the main benefits, main exclusions and limits of the cover, and are not aware of any other insurance policy that you currently have that makes this policy unsuitable.
You are aware of your obligation to provide all material information and have made a reasoned decision on the basis of the information provided in the Policy Summary, and also have a period of 14 days after the receipt of the terms to cancel the contracts if you wish to reconsider your decision. After such date, as the payment is made on a monthly basis, no refund of any premium or service charge paid will be due.
On the basis of the information you have supplied you are able to claim under the cover, however certain exclusions and policy limitations will apply as provided in the Policy Document. On this basis we therefore recommend that you take out Mobile Phone and USB Modem Insurance as it will provide protection against the risks specified in this statement in relation to the phone and where applicable a portable device.
