If you're an HSBC Advance customer, you may be wondering if your phone is insured. HSBC offers mobile phone insurance, but it is not available to new customers. To benefit from HSBC's mobile phone insurance, you must be an existing bank member and upgrade your account status to HSBC Insurance Aspect, which comes with a monthly fee. This insurance covers phones you own for accidental damage, breakdown, loss, and theft. It also covers the battery and charger if they are lost, damaged, or stolen in the same incident. Cover applies worldwide, but a replacement phone can only be arranged when you're in the UK (or the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man if you're a resident).
