It says there is a $50 deductible for drops, spills, etc... if they can't repair it. My question is, If I dropped my ip4 and the screen shattered they could repair that right? So would they still charge me the deductible if it dropped but it can be repaired? Basically what I'm asking is what isn't covered by the Care Plan. Like what defines the Care Plan from the ADH?

Thanks alot for any help, this decision of whether or not to get insurance is mind-boggling!

There are a rediculous number of threads covering this. But basically with squaretrade they will perform 600.00 worth of repairs on the phone if its not fixable give you what is left of the 600.00. So a screen repair would be 50.00 out of pocket. If you snapped the phone in half, they would just give you 600.00 if you haven't previously sent in the phone for repair.

ADH = Accidental Damage from Handling.

So basically, anything that's not a defect. Drops, spills, all of those things are covered by ADH. And pretty much any glass breakage will fall under this category.

Things that are due to mechanical fault (your battery stops holding a charge, pixels on the screen fail, a speaker stops working, the headphone jack shorts out, etc.) Are covered under the Care Plan.
