How To Disable A Stolen Mobile Phone

Travel : Travel Tips

If your mobile phone gets stolen abroad, or indeed anywhere, then you first need to store your serial number in advance.

To find this, press * # 0 6 # on your keypad and a 15 digit code comes up.

This is the serial number which you should note down and safeguard.

Then if the phone gets stolen you can phone the service provider and tell them what the serial number for the phone is, and they will be able to block the phone.

The difference over standard blocking based on the number is that the device itself is blocked rather than just your account, so if they change the SIM card the phone is still useless!
