Lost phone

dosanjh1 · 15-08-2011, 15:27

Like a div, I lost my Samsung Galaxy 2 in my local argos.

I only had it for about 6 weeks. I was clutching my son in one hand and was writing the product number on the order slip on the other. I think I must of put the phone down to look at a memo note on the phone (which contained the product number i needed for the slip) and then neglected to pick up the phone.

I've done the neccessaries in putting bars on the phone, asked for a new sim card etc.

I am just so gutted I lost the phone. I sent an e-mail to Argos as I want them to look at the CCTV (I went in store and they say no lost property has been handed in)

What do you think my chances are? From CCTV they might see:

1, That I did or did not leave my phone there
2. If anyone picked up the phone
3. If someone picked up the phone there is a chance that person may be located

What are my chances and is there anything else I can do?

Just a thought but you didn't register your phone through Samsung DIVE did you? Samsung offer a free tracking and remote lock/wipe service for the Galaxy s2. However I'm sure you will need to have registered first so I'm afraid this is probably of no use to you.

You could also install this app to your phone directly from your browser, it should send an email with the location of your phone within 10 minutes. Hopefully you'd be able to find the phone if the location is accurate enough.
