It was stolen and she did not notice it gone. And when she got home she had a huge phone bill.<BR/><BR/>If the phone was stolen in her home country, she could have filed a police report, showed it to Rogers and they would have written it off.<BR/><BR/>If the phone was stolen overseas, when she noticed it gone, should have immediately called and reported in.<BR/><BR/>As someone who travels internationally, I tend to keep the phone with me on trips. Most people do. The article is very light on these details.<BR/><BR/>If it was a GSM phone they generally need access to the phone and have to grab and clone the sim. So physical access is needed for the device.<BR/><BR/>The article mentions that the owners of rogers got scanned and cloned. When was it, soounds like they used TDMA phones, which was probably a few years back when it happened.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343001.post-1134955904933589632005-12-18T20:31:00.000-05:002005-12-18T20:31:00.000-05:00Damn, there is at least ONE thing we do better dow...Damn, there is at least ONE thing we do better down here! Our cell service is great, we have a lot of companies competing with each other, so prices are pretty reasonable and customer service excellent.<BR/><BR/>even cable isn't too bad here, with the competition from sattelite providers Direct TV and Dish NetworK.<BR/><BR/>In fact, our cell service is so good I am ditching my traditional phone as soon as the city finishes wiring downtown for WIFI. The only thing I use that line for is DSL.greatwhitebearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08448430897774991335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343001.post-1134945322720705392005-12-18T17:35:00.000-05:002005-12-18T17:35:00.000-05:00Tuffy & I are happy to be living cell-phone free. ...Tuffy & I are happy to be living cell-phone free.

Things started going downhill after the purchase of the cable box and the screwing with our channels.
