I think I might be completely screwed. My Google Nexus is less than a month old. I enrolled in the T-Mobile's accidental damage insurance plan (just add $7 a month to my regular pre-paid $30 a month plan).
Today I slipped and fell into a pool of salt water by the ocean. Extremely likely phone is completely hosed.
Between this and getting my diving gear stolen today, it's been a very expensive (-$1000), bad day.
I went to a T-Mobile store and they said they might not cover phones not purchased through T-Mobile? I bought my Nexus from the Google Store. I'm not sure what Asurion is going to say tomorrow. I checked their website and the Google Nexus does not pop up as one of the phones they have a deductible for. This is beyond stupid. I would think that any legitimate insurance company would want to have on record the make and model of your phone *before* they start covering you.
Right now I'm using a backup Samsung Captivate. Since the SIM card is now on the Captivate, could Asurion just say that they cover the Captivate, but not the Nexus?
