Excess amounts are regularly reviewed. If we make a change to your excess, we will give you 30-days notice.

Full Cover and Damage Cover Customers
Full Cover and Damage Cover includes a number of non-insurance benefits:
- you are entitled to a next-day replacement if your registered device is diagnosed with a fault during the first 24 months of its life
- we will arrange for a courier to visit and exchange the faulty device for a refurbished replacement for a £50 fee. This fee is added to your next mobile bill. This service is not available to SIM Only customers or to Apple customers within the first 12 months of your Airtime Plan.
If we have collected and replaced your device and found the old device is not faulty (eg it has been damaged), we may charge you for the cost of the replacement device and may remove Full Cover or Damage Cover from your Airtime Plan contract.
Insurance paid by recurring card payment (Single Tech Cover)
This applies if you have insurance for tech bought from EE (for example: mobile, watch, laptop, audio, gaming, wearables) as a standalone purchase, and your monthly premium is collected through a recurring card payment for Single Tech Cover products - Full Cover or Damage Cover.
Excess
If your claim is successful, you'll be charged an excess as a contribution towards the cost of the repair or replacement of your device. The amount depends on which band your device falls into on the date you bought insurance.

Missed delivery charge
We do not currently pass on charges for missed deliveries to our customers. But we might charge you if you’re not available at the agreed time, or if your damaged device isn’t ready to be collected and the courier has to leave. To rearrange delivery, check how to rearrange delivery.
Failed delivery charges where the security features haven't been disabled
If you have an Apple device and don't unlink your iCloud account or deactivate Find My, you may see a charge on your next EE bill. This cost will depend on the market replacement of the device. But we'll tell you the amount of that charge when we contact you.

Fraudulent claims
If you have made a fraudulent claim, we will endeavour to recover the device and any costs. In addition, if you fraudulently provide us with false information, statements or documents, we will record this on anti-fraud databases and may also notify other organisations.
We may choose not to offer cover in the future to you or anyone connected with you if we suspect fraudulent activity on this or any other associated insurance policy.
