Does Verizon Home Device Protect cover cell phones?
Verizon Home Device Protect does not cover cell phones. This plan is designed to provide protection and support for a variety of home technology products, such as TVs, gaming systems, computers, smart home products, wearables, and Wi-Fi-enabled home healthcare devices. For coverage of mobile phones, Verizon offers separate device protection options like Verizon Mobile Protect, which includes services such as repairs, replacements, and technical support specifically tailored for mobile devices.
What is Verizon Home Device Protect?
Verizon Home Device Protect provides coverage of eligible home tech from TVs, gaming systems and computers to smart home products, wearables and Wi-Fi enabled home healthcare devices.
If I have Verizon Home Device Protect, do I need extended warranties on my computer, gaming equipment and other tech?
With Verizon Home Device Protect, your eligible home tech devices are covered for mechanical or electrical failures caused by defects in materials and workmanship, normal wear and tear, and power surges. Additionally, portable products like laptops and gaming consoles are covered for unintentional and accidental damage from handling.
