I lost/got stolen my iPhone!!!

[hoax]

I was eating at the Steak N' Shake in Lake Worth on 199 just west of 820, I enjoyed the food as I normally do pay and leave.

15 Minutes after I leave I realize I have left my phone!!!!

So I start blowing it up, nothing no one answers. So I go back to the restaurant and no one saw it...

The only people there were my friend, the manager, our waitress, and the cook. That is it no more no less...

So I am self employed and I MUST have this phone for work stuff or risk losing alot of money an missed loads, so I rush to my nearest AT&T and tell them I need a new iPhone. $860 later I walk out an all the more livid man.

I was just going to blow it off but I decided against it and went back for the 3rd time but this time I called the police and filled a report.

When I was there the 2nd time the manager was the one who cleared the table, when the police showed up it was the waitress, then it was the other girl that showed up after I left, then no one knew who cleaned the table.

Long story short the police were of no help, not a lack of effort on the officers part, and I left with only the good assumption the manager has it.

He just seemed shifty didn't really have an answer for anything just pointing fingers at the waitresses, he didn't know who cleaned the table. He tried saying there were 3 or 4 other customers in the store after the waitress just told the police officer that there was no one else there. He was not helpful, I know that if I was a manager there I would have offered the customer something free meal, free dessert, something! I just lost a $600 phone and had to go buy a $800 phone, at least give me half a peace sign!!!!

So basically this is no ones fault but my own. I should have kept up better with my own phone, if it weren't left no one could take it. Thanks for taking the time to read this, hope you remember your phone

I feel for you, I have lost phones before. But, sometimes, I wish I would lose my iPhone so I could be free of its magical powers.

I'm glad I don't need a smart phone of any variety.. I just gave up on the pricier phones with cameras and opted for the absolute minimalist phone I could find. $20 from Wal-Mart, hurray.

I can buy 10 of these things a year and come out ahead of most people.

You checked deep down in the seats?

Also, I love how my iphone is backed up onto my computer every time I hook it up. If you installed the OS3 software, then you should be able to wipe the data remotely.

Plug it up to your computer, and if you backed everything up - then you've lost nothing....except $800. ouchy...

[hoax]

How do I do that. Is it somehing that I should have set up to begin with?

I do feel like a total idiot leaving my phone.

Ouch!!


That sucks.

Can't the carrier tell you where it is?

I know over here they can brick the handsets remotely so it will be of zero use to the thief - and, simply because of how they work, all phones can be tracked by the carriers as long as they are switched on.

The only thing I see you did wrong was buy another iPhone. =P
