    In July last year I bought a sagem myc52 off a friend of a friend of a friend- anyway basically i could not send texts or make calls on it- and i tried 3 sims in it. I tried to contact the guy i got it off and it turns out he had left the country

    anyway i called customer care and it turns out the phone was stolen and the original owner had blocked the phone- however they said there was nothing they can do to help me- they wouldnt unblock it for me- and i asked could they contact the orginal owner(oboviously registered) and inform her of the situation- and they refused

    I spent 60 euro on that phone and its just sitting in a drawer now and cant be used
    I think its unfair that customer care didnt bother helping me

    Sadly this is the only way to stop people dealing in stolen property.

    We all make mistakes. Today it was your turn. You have got yourself in a spot, probably in all innocence, why don't you stick up a post in the wanted forum and see if someone can help you out with a cheap phone? Who knows someone might offer you a freebie if you pick it up or cover p&p costs?
