Stolen iPhone found

[Janssent11041]

My dads iPhone was stolen about a year ago.

Today it was 'found' and he will be picking it up tomorrow.

The problem is that he reported his phone stolen with the police and gave them the serial numbers and all those things.

Will we now be able to use this phone again?

Or will it be tracked as soon as it will be used again?

My dad said something about this, and that it may be blocked.

Thanks!

Well, if he tells them that it's been recovered and manages to prove it then he should be able to use it just fine...?

The phone will be unusable carrier level wise, but you should be able to restore it with his Apple ID etc if its linked to his iCloud account.

 

You'll need to go to your carrier and get your IMEI or similar number cleared out of the stolen/blocked status.

I had this happen to me once a while ago with Verizon. Unfortunately I used my insurance to get a replacement phone and when it was found nearly a year later, they did not let me re activate it because I had used my phone insurance.

If anything, you got a new iPod. Hope the phone can still activate!
