Droid Broken Screen, how to go about getting replacement

[runnerxc]

Thanks for the replies. I have tried to add the insurance but Verizon told me that since it is past the 30 days, that I can't.
I think my options are slim to none because as Big Cam so nicely pointed out, I did drop the phone and opted not to get the insurance.

I was more interested in the people that have had luck getting a replacement for $50, which I have seen a few people say they have gotten. I'm sure you get a refurb in that situation and it seems like it might depend on what Verizon store you go to whether or not they will give that to you.

One option would be to call verizon and add insurance (don't if they will let you or not, but worth a try) and wait it out for a couple weeks and then file a claim

This is the route I would take. I think it is more than a couple weeks wait time before it goes into effect and yes it is technically insurance fraud. So either come to terms with that or take up a second job.

Also you might want to get a friend's Droid if you do it in person, I have added insurance before and they like to inspect the phone. If you can do it over the phone that works too.

This forum absolutly does not advocate insurance fraud any more than we do hosting an apk for a paid app. The OP knows his options. This thread is
