Device Insurance

Device insurance can feel like a smart safety net, but those monthly premiums quietly add up over time. Whether you have found a more competitive plan, upgraded your gadgets or simply want to cut unnecessary spending, leaving your policy should not be a hassle. Tocancel removes the friction by preparing your cancellation letter online and sending it to your insurer via registered mail, so you never need to print, sign or queue at a post office.

Is it still worth it?

Rising fees and hidden costs

Many policies become far more expensive once you factor in deductibles, excess charges or annual premium increases. If your insurer, such as Mobile Insurance, keeps raising the price while your coverage stays the same, it is worth questioning whether the protection is still good value. Compare what you pay each year against what you could actually claim, especially if your coverage is capped or limited.

Features you no longer use

Your insurance needs evolve as your technology changes. If you have upgraded to a new device or no longer own the equipment your policy covers, you are likely paying for irrelevant protection. In practice, that means your money is doing nothing for you. Ensuring your coverage matches your actual devices is essential, so review your policy regularly and cancel anything that no longer fits.

Better alternatives exist

Many Australians find that competitors like Tile or Fnb offer more tailored coverage or lower premiums than their current provider. If your existing policy is not meeting your needs or your budget, switching to a better alternative is a sensible choice. You do not have to settle for an expensive or inflexible plan.

The rights that protect you

Under the Australian Consumer Law, you have the right to cancel your device insurance policy at any time. Insurers like Frontier Secure and Carphone Warehouse must process your request without imposing unfair cancellation penalties. This means you are protected if a company tries to make leaving difficult or charges unreasonable fees. Always check your policy document for any early exit costs, and do not hesitate to dispute charges that seem unfair. Your right to cancel is clear, so exercise it with confidence.
