Once your claim has been processed, we'll send you a replacement the next day. If your device is damaged or faulty, we'll need you to send it back to us. Please do the following:

  1. Unlock your device and switch off or uninstall any apps (including Find My iPhone) which might prevent us from removing data.
  2. Remove the battery (if you can), your SIM card and any accessories.
  3. Seal the device in the prepaid envelope that came with your replacement and post it to us.

Please note that you'll have to pay a non-return fee (based on the value of the non-returned model) if you don't return your old device within 15 days of getting the replacement.

Make sure that you get proof of postage from the Post Office and confirmation of the weight of the package you're returning to us.

If your device has been lost or stolen, keep the prepaid envelope in case it turns up. We block and track all lost and stolen devices, since they become the property of the insurer once a claim has been settled.

Yes, the excess fee is outlined in your welcome letter. An excess fee is required because devices are getting more and more valuable, so they're expensive to replace. The excess fee helps us keep down the amount that you must pay every month.

If your device is lost or stolen you’ll only be covered if you have Three Rescue™ Full Cover. But there are still some things you should do as soon as you realise your device is gone. Here’s all you need to know about reporting your device lost or stolen.

*Next day delivery in mainland Great Britain only for claims completed before 8.30pm Monday to Friday, or 2.30pm on weekends. Excluding Bank Holidays. Any replacement device you receive may be refurbished to ‘as new’ standard, using original equipment manufacturer parts. If you think we're late please let us know and if we have missed our delivery promise, we'll give you £20, credited to your bank account within 30 days.
