1. Ve a la página Productos y aplicaciones en Mi Verizon.
2. Haz clic en la pestaña Administrar tus productos.
3. Select a device if you have more than one on your account.

You'll see one of the following protection options listed in your features if you have one:

You'll see a charge for your equipment protection program listed under the Monthly Charges section of your bill. It will be labeled with the name of the program you're enrolled in (e.g., Total Mobile Protection).

Lost, stolen or damaged device - Asurion may fulfill claims with new or refurbished equipment. En general, las reclamaciones se satisfacen con la misma marca y modelo. Si esto no es posible, se sustituirá por una marca y modelo similares. No se garantiza la compatibilidad de colores, funciones ni accesorios.

Device with a manufacturer's defect - Your device will be replaced with a teléfono de reemplazo certificado como nuevo (una unidad similar o de calidad comparable).

During the claims process, you'll be asked a series of questions to determine if your device is eligible for a cracked screen repair.

Eligibility depends on the type of smartphone, extent of damage (screen only), and where you're located. Screen repairs will be completed by an Asurion Certified repair provider using original manufacturer parts as soon as the same day.

Yes, a cracked screen is a type of damage, and it's covered under most equipment protection options (except Extended Warranty). For detailed instructions, refer to the Damaged Device section of our How to Replace a Lost, Stolen or Damaged Device página.

Note: You may be able to have your cracked screen repaired by a local Asurion Certified Service Provider, rather than having your device replaced. If you're eligible, you'll be given the option during the process of filing your insurance claim. Repairing is less expensive and can be a faster option. It also eliminates the hassle of transferring all your content to a new device.

Total Mobile Protection Multi-Device is an equipment protection option for your entire account rather than an individual device. It gives you Protección móvil total (our most comprehensive coverage option) for 3 lines on your account, and you don't have to choose which lines right away. If you have more than 3 lines, you can add coverage for additional lines.

If anything happens to one of your devices, you can file a claim for that line at that time. That line will be officially registered as one of your covered devices, but you still don't have to tell us which other lines on your account you want to register.

You also get Tech Coach support for all devices on your account and nearly any device they connect to.

Purchasing coverage for your entire account may be better than buying coverage for individual lines because:

• You can file a claim for any line on your account. You don't need to select which lines you want covered until something happens. Once you file a claim on a line, that line is registered in the program. But you'll still have 2 more slots available that you can use for any line on your account. If you fill all 3 registration slots, you can add coverage for your additional lines for just $9/month per line.


• You get Tech Coach support for all devices on your account. If you sign up your device individually, you'll only have Tech Coach support for that device.


• You have a pool of claims to use however you like. If you cover your lines individually, you get 3 claims per line in 12 months, and those claims can only be used for that line. With Total Mobile Protection Multi-Device, you get a total of 9 claims* in 12 months that you can use for any of your registered lines. If you want to file 9 claims on the same line, you can.

*3 more claims per enrollment, if you add coverage for additional lines.

Your account must have 3 - 10 lines to be able to sign up for Total Mobile Protection Multi-Device.

You also must meet the other equipment protection eligibility requirements in order to enroll.

It costs $33/month, which lets you file claims on up to 3 lines on your account. If you have more than 3 lines, you can cover your additional lines for $9/month per line.

You must meet the equipment protection eligibility requirements in order to sign up for Total Mobile Protection Multi-Device, even if you currently have coverage on individual lines.

If you have Total Mobile Protection Multi-Device, you can cancel your full account coverage anytime. However, you'll only be able to sign up for Total Mobile Protection on individual lines that were registered when you canceled. Lines that weren't registered when you canceled must meet the equipment protection eligibility requirements in order to sign up for individual coverage.

Note: You can't have Total Mobile Protection Multi-Device and another type of equipment protection on your account at the same time.

If you file and complete a claim on a line, that line is officially registered in Total Mobile Protection Multi-Device, and it will take up one of your 3 available registration slots.

You only have to register one line at a time. So after filing and completing your first claim, you'll still have 2 more registration slots available in case something happens to any of the other devices on your account.

Once a line is registered, it will permanently take one of your 3 registration slots, until the line is no longer on your account.

If you have more than 3 lines on your account, and would like to protect all of them, you can add coverage for additional registration slots.

You can file up to 9 claims in a 12-month period, with the standard 3 registration slots that you get when you first sign up for Total Mobile Protection Multi-Device. If you purchase additional coverage, you get 3 additional claims for each slot you purchase.

For example, if you have 5 registration slots for your account, you can have up to 15 claims fulfilled in a 12-month period.

These claims are flexible and can be used on any registered line. If you want to use all your claims on a single line, you can.

When you first sign up for Total Mobile Protection Multi-Device, you have 3 registration slots that you can use for any of the lines on your account. If you fill all 3 slots, you can purchase additional coverage for $9/month per line, which can be used for any of the remaining unregistered lines on your account. For instance, purchasing an additional line of coverage can provide you a total of 4 registration slots, 3 that are filled and 1 that is open.

Each time you fill the last slot on your account, you'll have 30 days to purchase additional coverage to cover your remaining devices. If you don't add the additional coverage within 30 days, the rest of the devices on your account won't be covered.

Each additional coverage you add to your account also gives you 3 additional claims that you can use for any registered line on your account. So if you have 4 registration slots, you have a total of 12 claims that you can use in a 12-month period

You can have as many registration slots as lines on your account, up to a total of 10 registered lines. If you have 10 lines on your account, you can have up to 10 registration slots and a maximum of 30 claims in a 12-month period.

If you didn't purchase additional coverage within 30 days, you must meet the equipment protection eligibility requirements in order to cover the other devices on your account.

Once you file a claim on a line, that line will be registered in Total Mobile Protection Multi-Device and will take up one of your registration slots. It will only be removed from the program if you deactivate the line on your account.

If you have an open registration slot on your account, the open slot will be canceled.

If all your registration slots are filled, the last slot you filled will be canceled, and the line that filled that slot will no longer be covered.

You'll also lose 3 claims per canceled line from your pool of shared claims (e.g., if you have 10 unused claims and cancel coverage for 2 additional lines, you'll have 4 shared claims left to use on any of the remaining covered lines).

Note: If you add additional coverage again at any time, any line(s) previously covered will automatically be registered and fill the new slot(s).

If your device is lost, stolen or damaged, you can presentar una reclamación on Asurion's website.

If your device has a manufacturer's defect, call Verizon Wireless at (866) 406-5154*.

*Florida customers: Please presenta una reclamación por internet for a manufacturer's defect.

A manufacturer's defect is something that's wrong with the device itself (e.g., internal, electrical or functional problems). It wasn't caused by outside forces that physically damaged the device, like dropping it or getting it wet.

Your device is considered damaged if it's broken because of something that was done to it. This includes water damage, cracked screen, etc.

You may be asked to provide information about your device when filing a claim. You can find your Device ID, make and model on the Mis Dispositivos en Mi Verizon.

Note: If you have multiple lines on your account, select the device you're filing a claim for to see the information for that device.

For insurance claims on lost, stolen or damaged devices, the date you receive your replacement device will be determined by the date your insurance claim is approved:

If your bill shows charges to your device after the loss but before you reported it, and you want a credit for those charges, contáctanos and we'll investigate your account activity.

Mientras se realiza el seguimiento, no tienes que pagar los cargos en cuestión. Also, we'll give you a courtesy suspension of recurring monthly fees for up to 30 days, if you haven't received one within the prior year.

Further information regarding the theft or loss may be required.

Tendremos en cuenta todos los hechos y las circunstancias. Además, revisaremos tu cuenta y compararemos el uso del teléfono durante el tiempo que estuvo extraviado con el uso que tú le diste. If the phone was used to contact entirely different phone numbers, this may indicate to us that the phone was being used by someone not authorized to do so.

We'll consider all relevant information in making our decision, including any documentation you can provide that shows the phone wasn't in your possession at the time of the calls.

Intentaremos resolver cualquier disputa sobre cargos no autorizados dentro de los 30 días. No debes pagar el monto de la disputa mientras nuestra investigación esté pendiente.
