Lost or Stolen Mobile Phones

Losing your phone or having it stolen can be a traumatic experience

Should it happen to you, call Customer Services immediately on 0845 412 5000 (charged at local toll rates) or if calling from abroad + 44 79539 66150 (International call rates apply) and we'll do what we can to minimise your stress.

  • If you're calling from a pay phone, we can call you back.
  • We can also call a partner/parent on your behalf to explain the situation.
  • We can blacklist your phone so it will be unusable - our network can recognise if a phone has been reported lost or stolen. You can add a password in case you find your phone at a later date.
  • We'll send you a replacement SIM card - a £10 charge applies to cover administration costs which will be debited from your balance or added to your next bill.
  • We'll give you your phone's identification number (IMEI), which you should pass on to the police.
  • In cases of loss/theft, T-Mobile should be notified within 24 hours of discovering the incident.
  • fonesafe should be notified within 48 hours of discovering the incident.
  • We have a phone replacement service and can check your eligibility.
  • By signing up to My T-Mobile, you will be able to search for your most recently dialled mobile numbers to help you reconstruct your phone book.
