If you google "free phone IMEI checker" there's a free site that will tell you if a phone is blocked or not by entering the phones IMEI number which is located in the phones menu
I'm not saying that is definitely the case, but you'll be able to find out by calling them.
For some reason, some people think they can pass their old phone on or sell it and then make an insurance claim on it, what they don't realise is that (a) they are committing insurance fraud, which could land them in big trouble and (b) the old phone will become a 'brick' and will be no use to anyone as when the insurance company pays out, they now own the old device if it is every found, and anyone who has it is handling stolen goods.
We don't know that is the case yet anyway, so best to check with Tesco and see what they say.

It will cost you only £1.99.
No real "friend" would do that to another.
