that being said, boner, i took a chance and walked around over the rhine for a few minutes calling your #-your phone turned up in some homeless guy's pocket not far from me. But he threated to chew on my arm if i came near, soooo sorry!

haha, im sure it will turn up there though, dont matter now the phone can never be unlocked now, lol pretty much a waist of time

I told the guy, "hey you've got my phone and I want it back" the guy answered with "I'll sell it back to you for $50." By now my cousin had run the police tracker on the phone and had this guys location. So my cousin tells the guy, "yeah okay I'll buy it." they set up a drop off and this guys shows up with 2 buddies and everyone gets arrested for sell of stolen property. ha ha ha

that is good, but kinda pisses me off, when i told the police today that is has GPS on the phone i can look it up and tell you exactly where it is at, they said they could not do anything about it

glad i had insurance on it, it was a $600 dollar cell phone and has gps tracking on it im glad the police said they wont do anything for me, awesome world we live in.

omg, i did not read through it but, hey what service do you have.

I would not have cancelled it, i would have kept it on and if you have sprint you can do the trial to the family locator and find the mutha-fu**** get to whoever it is and beat the living shit out of them. I know, i have done that before when some punk ass bitch stole my phone.

its verizon, i tried to get them to locate it, they said they will only do it with police approval.

shit i should have, told them a child was kidnapped with my phone and the guy who did it had 50lbs of blow on him as well then they might have thought about it

What if and I'm just saying what if....

You get your old beat up phone sell it for $100 to somebody who needs a new one but they can afford the $600 price mark and you call your provider and say "my phone got stolen" and the provider says "oh well you got insurance so that'll be $50 and you'll get a brand spanking new phone?" And you say "okay!!" And in the end you have $50 and a new phone.....

Would it work?

I see! I thought you meant that you paid that much. I was going to say you are crazy!
