Locking a lost or stolen phone

I recently left my phone at a park, and when I went back it was gone.  It has been several days and no one has turned it in, so I believe someone has kept it and is planning to use it.  I transferred my phone number to a temporary phone.  I would like to lock it and mark it as stolen/lost.  I have tried going through 611 but it will only let me lock my current phone number.
Is there a customer service rep that will help walk me through how to lock the phone and put it on the stolen/lost list?  I have the phones ID number.

Call customer service again and report the phone stolen.

  • Has anyone else had terrible customer service trying to replace a lost or stolen phone through Verizon?

    Has anyone else had terrible customer service trying to replace a lost or stolen phone under their warranty plan?  How did you get a resolution or replacement phone?

    Hello dpetrie,
    A lost or stolen phone is definitely not fun! If this is the case then I'm sure that we have an option available for you. May I ask what model device did you lose? As tikibar1 mentioned, do you have insurance on the device? If so then please advise so we can share options with you.
    Thank you...

  • Can you activate a lost or stolen phone

    can you activate a lost or stolen phone.
    I found a iphone in a wallmart parking lot and its for sprint i would love to activate it.
    i have already restored it to factory settings i just want to know how to activate it with my phone #.

    Grenze, I hope if and when I loose my phone you are the person who finds it and not Jennifer.  That way I have a chance of getting it back.  I hop one day Jennifer buys a phone and looses it.

  • Can a current Verison customer get into trouble for claiming false information regarding lost or stolen phones and their account, just to have them suspended?

    I know of a family member that has filed (called) a false claim of 5 phones on their account being lost or stolen just to have them suspended, is there anything that can be reported or someone that can be notified to report this issue and/or can they get into trouble for filing or claiming false information?

    Why claim lost or stolen?  Why not just suspend the lines?  In any case, the lines can be suspended, with or without payment, even without reporting them lost or stolen.  The only point to reporting them that way is to prevent them from being used on another account.
    If they were to try and replace them via insurance, there would be a deductible to pay.  They may need to show proof if reported as stolen (police report).
    I guess I'm puzzled as to the motive behind reporting them to be lost or stolen rather than a simple suspension.

  • HT4623 locating lost or stolen phone

    How can I locate my lost or stolen phone

    Use Find My iPhone ... if you've set it up!
    If you did set it up, go to http://www.icloud.com, sign in, and go to Find My iPhone.
    If you did not set it up, you're out of luck.
    Either way, contact the authorities if it was stolen.

  • TS4006 Locate lost or stolen phone

    How to locate missing or stolen iPhone

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.
    If the device is wiped by you or another, you may not be able to locate the device (although some have reported they can)

  • Lost or stolen phone

    My phone has been missing since 3/6/2015. I had service suspended yesterday and I need to see if someone has tried to use my phone the 6th.

    Contact Verizon to report it lost and try to use Android Device Manager to find your phone...that is, IF it is on.  If it is on it means someone else has it at this point, since the battery would already be dead.  You can also check your My Verizon account for any use by date online.

  • Keep iPhone locked when lost/stolen?

    I know I can set an auto lock with 4 digit code. I wonder what good will that do if someone has the phone (lost/stolen). Can't they plug it into iTunes and do a "restore"? Or somehow crack the code and steal all my info.
    Is there a way to lock the firmware so it can't be boot/restored without a PW? Just like my MacBook.
    I want to know a good way to make it unusable/unsell-able to anyone. Thanks!

    Someone would need to get lucky with guessing your 4 digit passcode so a good idea to not use something like 0000 or 1111 for your passcode.
    Someone can connect a iPhone to iTunes that is not their iPhone and restore the iPhone as a new iPhone, but they won't be able to access any of your data unless they get lucky in guessing your passcode or spend a great deal of time going through every possible combination.
    The only thing you can do is use a passcode and if your iPhone is lost or stolen, call AT&T immediately to report it. If you know your iPhone was stolen, you should also report this to the police.

  • My phone was stolen, I have moved it in lost mode,but I can see that whoever has it,is changing phone name and can use it until I activate lost mode again.Can I do it permanently? How can I cancel ICloud back for the stolen phone,it blocks Cloud memory?

    My phone was stolen, I have moved it in lost mode,but I can see that whoever has it,is changing phone name and can use it until I activate lost mode again.Can I do it permanently? How can I cancel ICloud back for the stolen phone, as I cannot delete the stolen phone backup (says that backup is being in use) and this is keeping memory occupied in the Cloud and I cannot back-up the other devices.

    Lost my phone, how can I block it so whoever has it can't use it?

    No app on the iPod is required.                           
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or continue to show off-line.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    iCloud: Erase your device
    iCloud: Use Lost Mode
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • HT4910 If my phone is lost or stolen can i still access my apps from iCloud on my computer?

    If my phone is lost or stolen, can I still access my apps from iCloud on my computer?

    You will be deleting their data from your iPhone, but not from their iCloud account.
    If you used your Apple ID on your friend's device just to use the Find my iPhone app, you will not be signing out of his/her Apple ID, but remember to use the Find my iPhone app. You do not need to change anything in Settings application
