Getting tough on Crime At ø we’re committed to working closely with the Police to ensure that mobile phone thieves

can’t benefit from their crimes.

Blocking stolen phones

You’ll be relieved to hear that if you’re ever unlucky enough to be parted from your mobile

phone, we have the technology to stop your phone from being operable across all mobile

networks. This is done by blocking the phone’s IMEI number (this is a 15-digit number which

is unique to your phone and identifies it from all the others in the world – it stands for

International Mobile Equipment Identity) which effectively renders it useless.

BluebookNow your mobile is insured, you can protect the stuff inside it too. Bluebook stores all your

photos and messages and backs up your contacts so you never lose them, even if your mobile

is lost or damaged.

Its free to register and easy to use.
