How Do I Fix a Broken Virgin Mobile Phone If I Have Insurance?

If your Virgin mobile phone is broken, the first step should be to check your insurance. If you bought your phone from Virgin Mobile, it may still be covered under their two-year warranty. Note that the warranty only covers you for manufacture faults. If you are covered by the warranty, you must provide proof of warranty to get the free repairs. The warranty does not cover you for damages such as;

  1. Liquid damage
  2. A broken screen
  3. Shipping
  4. Damage from acts of God
  5. Damage due to unauthorized repair or improper installation

If you are no longer covered by warranty, check if your insurance provider covers you. Some insurance providers may not cover you for out of warranty repairs. Some of them may not pay for repair costs that are booked with Virgin Mobile. If not, they may suggest their recognized repair agency.

If your phone only needs to be tuned up a little, you don't need insurance. You may take it to the nearest Virgin Mobile store for repairs. Another option is to contact Virgin Mobile on the phone and ask for help. Note that different repairs may have different turnaround times.
