Wouldn't it be wise for them to have it in file then no one can just call them as say they lost a more expensive phone than they originally had?

When I got a new phone and contract and decided to get the insurance for the phone the guy had to fill out a section that listed what brand/model phone the insurance was for.

I have verizon and they never did that. They also ASK for your phone model when you claim it. pretty stupid if you ask me.
