Mobile
Phone Fact !
Ever wondered why Mobile
phone companies have not let this secret out of the
bag?
To check your Mobile phone's serial
number, key in the following on your phone:
star-hash-zero-six-hash as (* # 0 6
#)
A 15
digit code will appear on the screen. (the serial no.)
This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and
keep it somewhere safe.
Should your phone get
stolen, you can phone your service provider and give
them this code. They will then be able to block your
handset so even if the thief changes the Sim card your
phone will be totally useless.
You probably won't
get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever
stole it, can't use /sell it either. Serves the crook
right !
If
everybody did this, there would be no point in stealing
mobile phones.
