 Stolen iphone 4 - tracking / resale? - BobbyG
Colleague had her iphone 4 stolen this morning - phoned O2 and got a block put on it until she was definitely sure it was gone. After reviewing CCTV it is clear that it was stolen, so phoned O2 again and they barred the phone.

She tried accessing the location via icloud but the time shown ie 2 hours ago, was when she got the phone barred. I assume with hindsight if she hadn't got the phone barred she may have better chance of tracing it? She used the same thing to check her ipad and it shows up clearly on the map where she lives!

O2 have assured her that the phone is now useless and will never be able to be used again as a phone - I find that hard to belive that the lowlife don't have a way round this?

O2 also suggested it might turn up in a cash converters type place but when they try to reclaim it they wil be refused - again doesn't sound right.

Any thoughts / experiences??
