geared Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 If you have find my iphone installed why have you not used it and figured out where it is? or did you stupidly have the phone blocked, which renders the 'find my iphone' useless?

darken Posted October 15, 2012 Author Share Posted October 15, 2012 Had the phone blocked before I used the find my phone function, didn't know that it rendered it useless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geared Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Yep it uses the phone connection to communicate it's location. If you've had it IMEI blocked then even if you do get it back it will be of no use, the networds don't usually undo a block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darken Posted October 15, 2012 Author Share Posted October 15, 2012 So most the taxi guy has got is an i-phone he cannot use and the loss of his license when the police get his reg number, he drove from the bottom of west street all the way up to tesco so the camera's have to have him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApplesPears Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 This story doesn't make sense to me. Why would a taxi driver risk losing his license and his livelihood for an iPhone that may get blocked by the owner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darken Posted October 15, 2012 Author Share Posted October 15, 2012 Yep it's true, Probably the driver thought I was that drunk that I wouldn't remember anything of the way home, But I hope he just forgot to give it me and is handing it in...

mafya Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 This story doesn't make sense to me. Why would a taxi driver risk losing his license and his livelihood for an iPhone that may get blocked by the owner? Blocked Iphones work in countries abroad but not in the UK.

matthew19a Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 if you do get it back it will be of no use, the networds don't usually undo a block. Where did you get that BS from? if you block your stolen phone then get it back. you ring off another phone and tell them you got it back give them the imei and they unblock it.. lol never heard of that what u just mentioned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerrangaroo Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 This story doesn't make sense to me. Why would a taxi driver risk losing his license and his livelihood for an iPhone that may get blocked by the owner? He's probably still intoxicated.
