AAAAA, talking about cell phone insurance. Just the other day i went to get a new battery for mine. Its covered under the insurance i've been paying for i dont know how many years. (I've used the insurance before with no problem) Well i get to the AT&T store, they replace the battery then tell me its 25 bucks. I said wait i have insurnace. He told me AT&T has placed a deductible now on their insurance of 50 dollars. So whats the use of having insurance on the phone. (I'm alos out of contract and pay month by month, havent renewed yet) You can turn around get a new phone, contract and still pay less than 50 bucks these days.

So i went ahead and just cancelled mine. Not worth it.



And Tim, those exemptions from Fema about if you have a raised house doesnt work down here (southeast louisiana). Every one is required to get them. There was a rumor that it would happen about two years ago and some people did build 15 feet or so off the ground. But it came out that they are not exempt. (Looks really weird seeing those houses in the middle of neighborhoods where its all brick one stories. Those houses look like fishing camps from down the road.)

any way, just my two cents
