Well I've just lost my cell phone (again!) and I can't bloody find it.. trouble is I switched it off so every time I ring it its going to voice mail. I don't know where it is! I've looked everywhere and I can't find it.. The last time I had it I was in the kitchen so am guessing I may have cooked it by accident lol
The last time I lost a phone it fell in the pool and well was buggered. Previous time it was stolen and the other time a so called friend asked to use my phone and never gave me back.. so this is the fourth time I have to replace a phone!
Have you ever lost your cell phone?

Yes. I've lost my cell phone twice. It about 5 years ago. Once because someone steal my cellphone and once because my friend borrowed my cellphone and then he sell my cellphone.

I have never lost my cell phone. Now my husband, holy smokes! The second set of cell phones we ever had, he lost his. He was working & had it on the seat of the truck between his legs. He thinks when he got out, he scooted the phone out with him & didn't know it. When he got a new phone through our insurance, I was mad because they didn't make our phone model any longer & he got a new, better phone with a color screen! Then we switched cell phone providers. I know he didn't lose the first phones & but he did lose the next one. He was working on his car & left it in the engine compartment! Then last year we got new phones, really nice ones. Again, he was working & left it sitting on the truck & drove away. Then just a few months ago his phone was stolen while we were at a picnic. It is really aggravating how many phones he loses. At least they are only $35 to replace. I guess that isn't too bad for a $500 phone.

I lost my cellphone twice. The first one was in an eatery, i left it on the table and when i get back to the place in just a matter of 30minutes, it was stolen already by somebody else. It's a depressing moment to me. I used to call it, but the one who stole it switched it off. The second one was it was snatched on the pocket my back pack while sleeping on the bus. The guy besides me on the bus even has the nerve to say "hurry up" while i am about to leave the bus. Gggggrrr! and when i noticed it was missing already.

I just had to get into this discussion thread! This reminded me of a discussion I and my husband had with our fifteen-year old daughter last year. This discussion came way by the third cell phone she had lost in one month! When this fact was pointed out to her, she stopped pouting about the loss of her beloved cell phone, and put her hands on her hips and amused us by stating, "I did not lose my cell phone, thank you very much, I know exactly where it is!"
Location phone was last seen in her possession? The pier......over water. Her reasoning on why it wasn't lost? "Loss indicates you not knowing where something is....I know exactly the spot it floated down to...in sixteen foot of water!"

Well, for me, I've lost only one cellphone.It was stolen by some terriable guy who broke into my house, and I called the police but there was no result until now. Therefore, I especially hate the guy and I miss my beauty cellphone.

Well. I've lost my phone once, but luckily for me I found it again. I had kept it in my drawer for the first time, so the next day I forgot it was in the drawer... I found it eventually.

I have not lost any of my cellphones by accident, but I was robbed once by unknown people and they got my one week old cellphone. It was really terrible, and that's the first and hopefully the last.

I have lost my cell phone several times. Once I left it in a public phone booth (because I have no credit to call out, so I went to a public phone to make a call. I also left and lost and purse that time.) Second time I lost it in a club (two times I did this), I usually stuck my phone at my back pocket so I guess it might have dropped when I was dancing. That's all I can remember. I lost more than that but forgot when and where. Now I take care not to misplace my cell phone anymore.

Yes, I have lost my cellphone, a new one when I was back from my work place. I had made a call to my husband to pick me up, he dropped me at my doorstep and proceeded to some other important job, after a while I was looking for my cell and could not find it, I never knew where I lost it exactly, I made a number of calls thinking that I might have left it in the car, there was no response, I called my husband to ask if he saw it in the car, who told me it was nowhere inside the car. I was so upset about it as my husband had just presented it to me two days earlier.

I've lost a cellphone twice. The first one was stolen from my bag. (Fortunately my bag wasn't slashed!) Then my boyfriend lost my second phone. I hated him for that. Good thing he gave me a nice replacement for that low-end phone he lost. :)
