Phone really lost

[ciphergoth]

Fuck, my phone isn't in the club's lost property.

Whoever had it called Jess at 5am. They didn't answer when I called back. Then it got blocked. What is going on?

I rang back immediately after they called me, and it rang out.

I think it's probably in benign but not maximally efficient hands.

I spent 1hr 40 mins on hold to Orange on Saturday trying to get the block removed so I could call them or they could call me, but I didn't get through. I finally got through on Sunday and got the block set so I can call them but not vice versa, but the phone hasn't been switched on since then. Whoever it is hasn't tried any other way of reaching me, eg phoning a number in my phone with another phone, or contacting the club, the venue, or the police.

If it wasn't for that 5am call I'd just give up on it as stolen, but now I don't know what to think.

They probably went to sleep after ringing - and the charge has now run out.
Sounds a bit hopeless..

One thing I keep meaning to say is that when my brother lost his phone, someone called my mum from it to wind her up by saying he was in hospital. Turned out whoever took it was drunk and thought that would be funny. It's not the only example of that I've heard of. So the call may not necessarily have been benign.

Also, knowing your phone, it may have been accidental.

Don't want to tell you to lose hope, but I think at this point I'd start sorting out a new phone. If the person ever really wants to get it back to you, they can contact the club organisers.

sorry love :( xxx

My hopes are also low

Yeah, new phone is right. Maybe you can help me figure out what phone I should get while you're at it? I'm crap with technology.
