I have my number in my ichat buddy list so I been sending it messages with phone numbers to call. But nothing yet

I just hope that the person that finds it, is smart enough to reads them and is willing to call them and is good enough to give it back. What are the chances? I just hope I get lucky, cause this sucks!

I placed an add in craigslist have started thinking of possible lost and founds.

Can you guys think of any other ideas.

This **** sucks.

Call your provider NOW and have them block long distance calls.

The only thing that worries me is international calls. Long distance I could care less. But I'll call them just in case. THX

Can you check your phone activity on your provider's website?

That can at least tell you if your phone has been used to make calls while you have not had it in your possesion.

t-mobile
I just sent them a email telling them my dilemma. Hopefully I find the phone, but then, I'm not holding my breath.

I wonder if they can pin point where the phone is and if it's moving to different areas or stationary.

If you don't find it and need a replacement, I'd call around to some tmobile retail locations and ask them if they have any refurbished phones to sell. I did this last year when my phone was lost and it was only 50 dollars for an almost new flip phone.

Call them and let them block your SIM. Sending an email is slow.

Thanks guys, I'll call a lost and found today, but I'm also going to call them and the retail stores.

I was 45 minutes late to work because I use it as my alarm clock. I didn't realized how depended I had become on it.

Sorry, grammar police in me just had to come out on that one.
