Id check your insurance policy. Most dont cover the phones accessories like the headphones.

They're just the standard headphones that come with my phone. I know I can just buy some more quite cheaply but seeing as though I'm paying £6 per month for phone insurance I was just wondering whether I could actually put that to use!

I might ring Orange anyway, nothing to loose!

Re: Headphones... insurance!?

Even if they are covered, probably not though, you may well have an excess to pay which is more expensive than the cost of a new set!
