I lost my phone! Have you ever lost your cell phone?

I don't use mine except for emergencies, that's why there were so many minutes on it. But I've seriously considered dropping my land line to save money, I don't use the land line much, either. I like for my grown sons to be able to reach me anytime they want and that and emergencies are the only reason I had the phone. Now I have to get another but they now have a style I like better for the same price so maybe it was good that I lost it!

I hope he finds them! Maybe some kind soul turned them in to the cafe. I'm lucky I don't have one of those expensive phones, I don't think there's a cheaper phone made than the one I lost--because I'm cheap!

I tried calling it but the last time I actually took it out was to turn the ringer off so I could go into the library!

I had a prepaid plan, I buy phone cards and add minutes to the phone. The minimum was 150 minutes a month, $15. That's all I spent on it each month, it was a really cheap phone to have! The same company has a new model of phone that I like better than the one I had so maybe it was a good thing I lost it. There's a bright side to everything!

Maybe it is "lucky". If the new one is good would you mind sharing the name of the provider please. My daughter has a prepay plan that costs both her and the recipient of her calls/texts whenever she contacts them. As a result, $10 last about a day!

I use Net 10. I'm ignorant of the text stuff, I don't do that. But for just calls through out the U.S., ten cents a minute is very good.

And what sense does testing make anyway? My sons say it's because they really don't have anything to say but just want to keep contact with the person. Isn't that what cards ere intended for? Get them at 2/$1 at the dollar stores!!

Thank you. I shall send her the details. She can even pick a phone up from Wal Mart with 60 days cover for less than the cost of her existing phone.

There are many more honest people than the media would lead us to believe! I'm glad your husband got his phone back! And I think your experience isn't as isolated as you believe. I live in a small city and the paper has an opinion section. Each day, almost, there is a missive that thanks someone for doing the right thing.

This world is filled with people who are generous and caring but the media lead us to believe the opposite.

I know now how upsetting that can be. I had so many phone numbers saved in my old phone, and it's such trouble to re-enter all those! The good thing about this is that I'll be able to get a new model, more like what I prefer, and very cheaply.

These things happen. Remind your boyfriend that this is a very small thing. He still has his health and his loved ones--compared to that, a phone is a nothing.

That's very wise, I've heard terrible tales of people losing their phones and getting outrageous bills from people using it to call other countries. I hope you never lose your phone! I'm going to get another one today, I'm thinking of dropping my land line.

That had to be awful! I like Net10 because there are no contracts and I just buy the minimum minutes every month. What really bothers me is that I had over 3,000 minutes saved up and now they're all gone!

I got a new one today, the same style I had because the price was so good. I went with Net10 again because for $40 I got the phone a 300 free minutes which makes the phone only $10. I don't know how it slipped out of my purse but I won't be carrying it in the outside pocket anymore!

Yikes! thats the worse place to carry a cellphone, believe me I know!. That was one of the times that I lost one cellphone.
And the most stupid way I could loose a cellphone was that I just purchased it one day, and that same day I went to a gym to see how the establishment looked, U know, check it out before I signed in, and stupid me I forgot the box it came with, the instructions, accesories and offcourse, cellphone itself.
Gym said they wouldnt be responsable for that after all, it was my cellphone and it was probably someone from staff who took it.
Thats when I said, its the last draw! From now on Im going to take care of my cellphones.

Yikes! thats the worse place you can keep a cellphone trust me I know! I lost one that way... but the most ridicilous way you could lose a cellphone is forgetting that U took it to the gym and left it there.

That was when I said no way! enough! From now on Im going to care for my cellphones.

Indybaty, I see that myLot made you think it lost your reply--so many many have that happen to them! I wish they'd make it more stable. Anyway, you are right and the phone will be inside my purse from now on and I'll zip it up like I'm supposed to!

That's terrible when they get stolen. If you don't act fast, you can be charged for all kinds of long distance calls, those people that steal them are horrible. I'm glad you got another one and now you'll be more careful.

That's good to hear! I think I lost mind because I leave it in the front pocket of my purse and it fell out. I'm glad to hear you're not a constant user!
