The statistics may surprise you! The Signal® estimates 25 million wireless phones will be lost or stolen this year in the United States, and millions more will be damaged. If your phone is one of them and you don’t have this coverage, you could pay much more than your original investment to have it repaired or replaced.

The make and model of your wireless phone are on the box that the phone came in
and should also be listed on your original receipt and customer service agreement
with your wireless carrier. Your wireless carrier may also have the make and model
on file so you can call them to get this information.
|
This information is found under the battery on the back of the phone itself and is 11-15 digits long. If your phone has been lost or stolen, you can find the ESN on the box that the phone came in, on your original customer service agreement or on file with your wireless carrier.
|
You may call or visit the police station in the county were your wireless equipment was stolen. The following police report information is required:
|
The name of the Police Department where the incident was reported
|
|
Police report case number
|
|
If the police department does not complete a police report, you must provide us with the name of the Police Department, the phone number, and the person you spoke with so that we may verify the information.
|
|
Remember to charge your handset 12 hours prior to use. If you chose to have your handset activated or keep your existing SIM (if option is available), your handset should come to you already activated. If your replacement is not activated upon arrival you can contact your carrier and they will quickly walk you through the necessary steps to activate your replacement handset.
