Loosing a mobile phone is not a rare thing for anyone in this world. You must have heard that your buddy or any other person forget his or her phone in a hotel, car, garden, park. And when she or he goes to pick up phone, mobile phone isn't there. Now what to do if your mobile phone is taken.

In numerous states like Uk, there is mobile phone database, which can forestall mislaid mobile phones from being used on any mobile network, so these robbed mobile phones are meaningless to any person. This system precisely works like a taken Visa card, if you loose your Mastercard, you just make a telephone call to your requisite bank to deactivate your credit card. Similar is the case with mobile phones, you call your service supplier and give them a particular number to deactivate your stolen mobile phone. This system applies to both prepay and postpaid packages.

Each mobile in this world has a unique code called as Global mobile equipment identity (IMEI Number). This is a completely unique serial number of each cellphone. If you provide this serial number to your network operator, they may deactivate your nicked mobile phone. No one can use your cellphone even if the person who has stolen your mobile, insert new Sim in the mobile. This mobile will be useless for all networks or service providers. All mobile network operators will deactivate or disable the phone by reference to this unique IMEI number of the mobile phone.

Now question is how it is possible to get this IMEI number? This number can usually be found under the battery of mobile phone (looking something like 087489/99/125486/9). You can also get this number from the telephone software, by entering following helpful code. Simply write down on your mobile phone the following code.* 0 6

A 15 digit code will appear on the screen after pressing send button, or in some telephones it comes automatically just by writing * 0 6. So when you purchase a mobile phone, get this code from the battery or simply write above code on your phone and get IMEI number.

After this, record this 15 digit IMEI number and your phone number on your private note book, place this book at a safe place and that is it. Now imagine if you lost your telephone, make a call to your service supplier and give them your phone number and this key,i.e IMEI number. They'll deactivate your thieved mobile phone. You will not get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever nicked it can't use/sell it either. If everyone do this, there would be no point in folk stealing mobile phones

Remember your mobile phone is extremely valuable for you. You'll have vital info stored in it. So take care of your mobile phones. Do not use your mobile in crowded areas or where you may feel dangerous. Government is attempting to encourage mobile phone companies to give more options for improving mobile phone security.

So remember this simple code * 0 6. Tell all your pals and co-workers to get IMEI number with the help of this code. If everybody simply follow this tip of making mobile secure, believe me, no one will try to steal your mobile phone.
