I'd go as far to say the OP should be banned.

Hand it in. It's no use to you or your thieving pikey mates.

Sometimes it takes a post like this to restore my faith in humanity.

Found it in an office my arse. Pinched and held onto until the heat died down more like without realising that it would be blocked.

"untill the heat died down"

He found a phone, not robbed a fucking casino.

Do you all get nosebleeds up there on your high horses?

I have no reason whatsoever to doubt the OP's story, as plenty of people lose their phones being pissed or just stupid. Not stolen, but lost, no wrong doing on the OP's part.

Would it be a different story if you found a little bundle of cash on the road?
I think so and you know it!!


Edit: I know now bimbob was being ironic, the high horse comment is therefore relinquished from him and spread evenly to all the outraged solid gold citizens tutting loudly at the notion of someone not being a good christian.

Why the fuck would you want an iphone anyway? They're shit.

On topic. That phone belongs to somebody, and probably contains personal messages, pictures and email not only from work but loved ones. Remember watching a TV show with Kiether Sutherland in a while back and a guy loses his phone. While phone is lost his little girl dies and the only photos he has of her are on that phone. In the end due to peoples kind and genuine decisions he gets those photos back.

Don't be an arse and use the phone. You're a bloody Blue, act like one. I'd expect something like this off a Rag. Charge the phone, and recover the phonebook and be a hero.

Yes, he found a phone. But not an Alcatel pay as you go job that costs £15 in tesco. He found an I phone, I phone 4. As I understand it you need to sign a contract to have one. That a contract for which he probably pays £30+ a month to have his side of that deal, ie a phone.
Its not the OPs phone.
Theft by finding is an offence

Putting aside any ethical questions raised, the answer to the OP is that the IMEI number can be changed. This means the phone wouldn't come up as being registered on the blacklist when it connected to a network. Although it's illegal to change an IMEI number there are plenty of less scrupulous mobile phone shops that would carry it out.

cheers banjo
so if the IMEI has been blocked is there any point in handing it in as the original owner must have blocked it straight away without even ringing it for some reason....???? surley somone would have tried to ring him before the battrey went dead?

The owner can get phone unblocked by there network, if the owner doesn't have it insured this will save them a lot of money.
