I lost my mobile phone!

It would only be a minor inconvenience for me, as I hardly ever use it. That and the only numbers in my cell phone record are my wife, my daughter, my best friend and my home. Oh, and the taxi cab number. Not much to lose I'm sorry that you lost yours, looks like it is a major part of your life

If I lost my cellphone will not be a big problem.. I have all my contacts in backups in several places, over the web, at home, at work, at my note bloc.. if I lose my phone will just be a matter of time to buy another an transfer all my appointments, notes, contacts, emails again to the new cellphone.

My daughter lost her mobile at her Uni Summer Ball in May. She spent most of the evening looking after a friend who was "tired and emotional" before she even got to the Ball and lost her phone whilst finding a cab to take her friend home. Not only did she (daughter) miss most of the ball (courtesy of her friend), but the phone loss really crippled her; and me. It's a contract phone in my name! O2 wouldn't replace the phone, but did send her a new Sim Card; except we can't make that work in any of her old phones. So I am paying £35 a month for a service that we cannot use. Grrrrr. However, she has had to rebuild her address book. For the first time I see a use for Facebook. All her friends are on it and she has asked the to let her have their phone numbers etc so she can load them into the PAYG phone that she has had to resurrect. I have a mobile in my car, built in. But I have that on Pay as you Go. I don't have a phone otherwise. People are incredulous when I can't give them a mobile number. LOL. I'd hand one in if I found one of course. I'd probably look for a "Home" number in the address book and see if I could reach the person that lost it first though. I hope you get yours sorted soon.

Oh no! That is not good! But at least you had a good night before all that happened. I would be OK if I lost mine, I would be pretty cross about it, but all the numbers I have on mine (not that many!) are written down in a little book I keep at home. It comes from having to go into hospital a couple of times, there is nothing else I keep on my phone so to lose it would just mean the pain of having to find the money to buy a new one.

im scared to lost my phone even it is too old... the number stored there are the most important than the phone... but luckily now i got chikka account so i can list all of my number there if i accidentally lost my phone

Good day... I did once had lost a phone, good thing though I've back up my nos. in my laptop and I just have to download it from there. What really hurts me is I'm going to buy another one and mine was pretty pricey at that time. People don't tend to return things like that. In here, they can resell it for a price so I don't think I'll be seeing my phone very soon. If you've set your picture as your phone's wall paper and a man had accidentally pick up your phone, no doubt he would have return it to you. Good luck in finding your phone.

Its always good for us to write down the phone numbers in the phone book or store it in our id.. i was also in you position when my sim card was corrupted, i dont know what happened to it actually.. it simpley dint work at all.. its not a virus which had attacked it but some problem i was provided with a new sim card and i was helpess when i lost all the contacts in that sim., because of that i loosed many of my good friends number from the day on i started to write down everything in a phone book and it is still helpful for me.

t is a terrible feeling when you lost something that is dear to you. I also had lost my phone many years ago and the feeling of emptiness is just unbearable. The lost of your contact numbers and contact with them for sometime since I wasn;t able to buy a replacement for that for sometime.

[i]ohhh...that is very hassle! I know how it takes to gather all those phone numbers again! I have tried that when I removed the sim card one time and some roommates thought it was a junk and throw it in the trash and never had it back! Anyway, when I will lose my phone, this is a big problem for me because every numbers here are very important, I don't care buying a phone since I will just get the $30 if ever I will lost this one! LOL![/i]

Hi Munchkin, Oh no, obviously no sign of your phone still else you wouldn't be posting this. I did learn my lesson the hard way too, I didn't lose my phone it got dropped into the bath by my toddler son bless, so I have a list of all the moviles in the back of my diary and address book. I also bury my phone in the bottom of my bag when out dancing and drinking the night away so I don't get tempted to text drunk LOL as we have probably also done at times eh! I get a mate to call a cab home. Hope you had a good night though. Huggles. Ellie :D

ohh I msorry that ur cellphone is lost ... Yes it causes headache and pain only . I lost my cell 4 years back from office . I put it on office table and when I came back it was not there....I was shocked ...but after few days I got another since could not found older anymore .... So dont worry ...try ur best to trace it .... May be its lying down under one of car seats .....I found it many times there .... Hope u trace it back ... All the best Ganesh

I'm sorry to hear that, I also have a friend who loss her cellphone and She can't remember how she lost it, that happens all the time, it also happened to me once too. BUt I luckily got my phone back because it was returned to me, I was surprised it was found in the comfort room in a bar. Maybe you should sync your contacts , sms and other files like notes etc , from phone to your pc and vice versa so you have a back up next time, It is so hard to live a life without contacts, hehe. I just got lucky I got my phone back because I got pictures in there(clean pics =o) ) and I never lock my phone so if incase it's missing the founder could answer it and open the phone or respond to text messages to you or something. That's I think how I got my phone back, after 2 days.

Hey munch, sorry about your phone. Glad you got out and had fun, I guess a little too much? Don't be upset, it couldn't have been worse. You know people aren't going to return the phone. It's really rare that you find a nice honest person who won't try to take the sim card or sell the phone or use it (at least you stopped them from doing that). Next time be more careful. I know it's easier to say! If I was still drinking I'm sure I would have lost my cell and god knows what else by now! At least you are ok and you got home in one piece!

congratulation. If the old doesn't go,the new doesn't come. Now you can have a new one,be happy though you have to get your friend's num again. and don't take this response as schadenfreude. just be a little more optimistic,little girl.

You should call your phone and see who answers, if it has a tracking device, and most do just nobody activates it, the phone company can give you a location of where it is. I guess if I lost my phone I'd be "Oh well" one less thing to carry around. Hope you find it though, sounds like your life was in it.

that's too bad, i hope you get a new phone soon. i've lost two phones already. the first one was robbed from me by two thugs armed with knives and the second one i lost when it slipped out of my pocket unknowingly. the first one was really bad. i had to choose between my life and the phone so the choice was easy. lol! the second one bummed me out as it was actually my mom's phone that i lost. after these two mishaps i've been really more careful about how i handle my phone. i alsways make sure that i put it in a secure place like a sealed pocket or in my bag. losing a phone is such a hassle because nowadays everyone contacts you through your phone and more than beign a phone, i think we've gfrown accustomed to always bringing it wherever we go. aside from the fact that it keeps us in touch with family and friends, some of us use our phones in our work or businesses so it really is a pain to lose somethign that plays an important part in our day to day lives.

I have lost my phones several times and have always had them returned. I myself have found some cell phones and also have returned them. The second I realize my phone is missing, I call it. Hopefully someone picks up and we can arrange having it returned. If no one picks up, I phone the phone company and put my service on hold and explain that the phone is lost and no calls are to be incoming or outgoing on the phone (this is to protect me from getting charged with long distance charges). If still no one returns my phone, then I guess I'd have to buy a new one but most people look through the phone book to see if there is a "home, Mom or dad" contact to call so they can return it. Sorry to hear about your loss.

I have lost my mobile two times. What i do to keep the phone numbers is that i have stored all the phone numbers in my email folder. Suppose if I miss my mobile phone, I can get the numbers from my email folder.

my phone just got stolen two weeks ago and im still very much sad about it we were all going out on a Saturday to a club but before that around 12-pm we thought of having dinner at MC Donald so we stopped there while having diner my phone was on the table because i had my friends calling who got to the club before us so we had dinner and the clinex was over my phone i got in my car and realized my phone wasn't with me i tried to call but i couldn't hear it so i wet back inside and found out that the table was cleaned i asked the guy that cleaned it he said he didn't see my phone my friends all said that he was the one tat stole it, there was no one there that could have gotten to the phone because there were no ppl at that time and plus they wouldn't have seen the phone because it was under the clinex i had a big fight with the manager and my dad who is a general called them up he asked the manager to check the cleaning guy but the manager refused because thy "trust" there cleaning peeps anyway that cleaning guy was around 19 years old and he was from a town in Lebanon which is known to have thieves anyway my dad called the police and they got my number back from the company but they are still searching for my phone when i got my number back i ha to get all my numbers back some i had already stored in my phone book and the rest i forgot later now for my phone i was depressed for 4 days and stayed at home it's not about the phone but its about the pictures the email the Msg's the stuff i had on it is really important for me anyway that's my experience im still suffering till now and hopefully ill find my phone soon i did however buy a new phone :)

No, I don't think I'd have much problem (I think). I have a backup of all my contacts in my PC, and another backup in the Telephone Provider.. This way, all I have to do in case of loss is to restore the backup. ^^ Try doing that with your next telephone.. It's a pretty easy thing to do, but it will save you a lot of time. =)
