Old iPhone 4S Stolen

    Hi there, I got an iPhone 5 recently and I switched my number from 3 to Vodafone. I stupidly left the old one on a bookcase, and it went missing on Sunday. I know well who took it, and I can well imagine its been sold.

    Question is who can I ask to get the phone deactivated now that the phone isn't registered with any network? Can I contact Apple directly?

    Who ever has taken it will find it very difficult to have it unlocked, if it is locked. If you have it's ID NUMBER. Try ringing you supplier and see if they can block it.

    Remember it must be reported lost or stolen.

    I reported it as stolen and 3 were able to have it deactivated.

    Thank you.
