    Don't think they have the ability to do so?

    No, but you should ring your mobile company anyway, so they can block the phone.

    If you don't find it, get an IMEI block put on it by your phone company.

    If you find it, they can undo it apparently.

    Lost my phone, got it blocked and they sent me a new sim card, same number and such, just blank. The only reason it was blank though, so I was told, was that the numbers were stored on my handset and not on the sim, so I'm supposing, if they were stored to the sim, the company might have a replica sim made with all the details on? Not a phone wizz though so...that's all I got

    Malt Munk xx :D
