The phone is on virgin network.

Tried phoning the phone, no answer, no signal or run out of battery or has been switched off.

Do i keep trying to phone the phone and text to ask if we can have it back or do i phone virgin and tell them to cancel the sim/phone so they cant use the £20 talk time but then i wont be able to phone the mobile to ask nicely to have it back!


What would you do?
Phoned the 2 places where we were last night and they havent found nothing.

Was it a new/expensive phone? Did u not have any insurance with it?
Chances are the sim has been dumped and the phone unlocked and/or given a new sim.

If it's pay as you go, then it doesn't really matter if you cancel it, just means that the person who has it will not be able to use it, but i doubt you'll get the credit back anyway.

So once they've used that then they'll have to pay to upgrade it anyway.

The only thing is that they'll have all her numbers now

PS - Cancel sim and buy a new one, it isnt that hard to do you know. DOnt need to ask a few thousand people from an internet forum to work this out.


Also, this is the wrong forum, should be off day

I suggest you claim the insurance if you have any if you don;t get her to buy a new one if it is a PAYG or inform the network if it is a contract phone.
