The insurance claim shall be settled directly by the insurance company within 15 days of receipt of the claim. Select models of LG GSM handsets also contain LG's unique Anti Theft Mobile Tracker (ATMT) through which one can track their stolen mobile phones, as soon as another SIM card is inserted. |
