OMG!
Yesterday I gave in my T68 to be upgraded at a Carphone Warehouse service centre.
This morning I put my sim card in my old nokia phone to see if I had any text messages. I got a voice mail from the Carphone warehouse saying that I had to phone them back immediately because of a 'urgent circumstance' involving my handset.
So we ring back and they said that when we gave it in the shop assistant turned his back and the phone was gone from the counter!!!!! A customer stole my freaking phone from the shop! I thought that was the safest place for it!!!!!! 
They said they have ordered me a new handset and they will update it to the t68i immediately when they get it. I hope it doesn't take like a week! gggrrgrrrrrr!
I hope they give me a data cable for my inconvenience!!
I'm soo shocked!

thats bad!! carphone warehouse arent doin too well with stolen handsets,about 6-8 weeks ago there was a story in the papers about a customer who was arrested for having a stolen phone that he had brought from cpw only days earlier!! the staffs security and vigilance must be non existant. you should demand a data cable,but try for an MCA 20 first!!  |

Hi!
If you want you can demand that they will give you
a new phone (T68m or T68i) in three days.
It is bullshit that the shop will try to get the phone back
and then give it back to you.
If you would go to court you would win the case with
two fingers in you nose.

I doubt if they will give me a £120 accessory for nothing, maybe a data cable if im lucky!

Think of it from the good way,
They got you a new phone, they could have easily told you thay it was stolen when it was at the front desk not when it's inside.
You could have ended up with no phone insted of mms phone after a week.

And make sure you report your phone stolen to your service provider, hope you know the imei number, you can get it blocked that'll teach them for stealing it |

I don't need to get my phone blocked do I? Mine is (was) on 'pay as you go' and the sim card wasn't in it so they won't be able to use it without a new contract would they?
lol, yea, the CPW are going to get me a new phone, I don't think they will try to get it back, they will have the thief on camera but the police are sh*t and won't do a thing to get them!
I'm kinda looking forward to my new handset, but I don't want to wait ages for it!

If you are "lucky" you might get a T68i
Or maybe you wants a T68m back!?

You don't have to get it blocked but it would just stop anybody from using it in the UK, they might try and sell it or keep it for themselves either way it's useless to them if you block it, it would give me some satisfaction knowing the a**eholes that stole my phone couldn't use it. |

I would want a T68i, but they said they ordered a replacement handset, I think it will be my old t68 cos they said they will then upgrade it when it arrives. I would much prefer the new handset tho
Ill keep u all posted on what happens.

UPDATE:
I went down to the carphone warhouse this afternoon, after a bit of persuading, i got the new T68i handset for no more money due to my 'inconvienice' WOO!
It's ace
