Personally, if I have to mail in my broken phone, I would rather stay with the carrier's insurance. The attractive part about Apple Care Plus is that you can just walk in to an Apple Store and talk to a real person. But Apple Care Plus does not cover stolen/lost phone. With the iPhone 6 being such a hot commodity, theft can be a big problem.
I see! so your going to be getting Applecare? square trade does offer more replacements though doesn't it?
I see but those deductibles are ridiculous, I mean you still have find my iphone.. don't know how well that works thoughI am still debating whether I should get Apple Care Plus or insurance through Verizon, mainly because Apple Care Plus does not cover theft. As I have said, the iPhone 6 is probably the most sought after Christmas gift this year, and I have to worry about theft.
I agree! they do have some nice perks.I went with square for a couple reasons. Lower deductible, allow more claims, monthly payment of $5 instead of paying full (this works for me since I often change devices), they allow you to get repairs at Apple stores and reimburse. So with these things just made an easier decision for me. But can't go wrong with either. I'd stay away from carrier insurance with their 200 deductibles.

The good thing about either is that if you get a new iPhone, you can always cancel the current covered phone and get your portion of what you paid back.
I paid my $99 for my 5S in December and canceled it today. Getting about $58 back.
Do not go with square trade, they use fake Apple parts to repair your phone. I used to use square trade for years until I actually had to do a claim. They sent me back my phone with all generic blank parts. When I called them, their response was, "well does your phone work?" well shut up.
