You woke my whole household claiming your iPhone was at my address according to your iPhone tracker, which as I told you was not inside my property and advised to look around outside ,hope you found it and as I advised last night call police befor you come knocking on my door telling me you can't beat technology and your phone was in my home.if I found a phone I would hand it in to a police station,hope you have reported lost phone ,so it's blocked and useless to anyone .
I was shopping en route to some elderly relatives and found someones phone in Morrisons car park. I decided to do the right thing and walk over to Peckham Police Station to hand it in. I stuck a note to the post nearby to say what I had done should the owner return looking for it. There was a long queue to be seen, I waited for over half an hour in the company of rowdy people I would rather not have been around. When I did get into the secure area, the desk officer tried for ages to unlock the phone to see if they could find a number to ring to find the owner, they couldn't unlock it, so I then had to fill in the "found" form. Got back to my car and defrosted food ..... I WOULD THINK TWICE IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN.
I've found phones on two occasions and have been able to find a number on there saying 'home', or 'sister' etc and been able to return the phones to grateful owners. But I can also understand why people pin protect their phones too. Surely if the IME number is registered the police can trace the owner.

Must be quite upsetting to have someone demanding their phone back when you don't have it. Gloves1980 seems insistent despite it being quite obvious that phone trackers are not that accurate.


Also, not that it matters for this thread, but Gloves1980 seems to sign off both Janet or James in different threads.

    • Depends on your definition of idiot.  I use the term to describe someone of low intellectual capacity.  But understand that this is now not used as seen to be offensive. In that respect he makes decisions that are good for him, and his close followers.  Whether they are in the interests of the US that is open to debate (in the same way that history will debate all major leaders eg was Thatcher/Reagan good for the UK/US). On line definitions: An idiot is most commonly a term for a stupid, foolish, or senseless person, often used as an insult or to express frustration with someone's silly behavior, but historically it was a clinical term for profound intellectual disability, which is now considered offensive and obsolete. The word comes from Greek roots meaning a "private person" or layman, evolving to signify ignorance and lack of skill before becoming a derogatory label for low mental capacity.  Modern Usage Self-deprecation: Used to describe one's own silly mistakes ("I felt like an idiot when I tripped").  Insult/Exclamation: A very foolish person or someone acting stupidly ("Don't be such an idiot!").  Historical/Obsolete Meaning Medical Classification: Once a technical term for someone with extreme intellectual disability (IQ below 25), a usage now rejected as offensive.  Origin Greek (idiōtēs😞 A private citizen, layman, or someone lacking professional knowledge. Latin (idiota😞 An uneducated or ignorant person.  The notable recent  'idiot' was Johnson who of course played the fool (lovable rogue) but that served him well So ultimately not a good word as it can be used in many ways. Ignorant is another good example - can be stupid, unaware, or simply rude.

    • I couldn’t disagree more - Trump is an idiot and he was voted for by a combination of idiots, racists and arrogance  you can complain about weak opponents all you like - but when the alternative is a “strong” thug then the problem is those who favour the thug.  All we face was predicted  - and he doesn’t have widespread support across many parts of America. So that leaves parts of America responsible for this  oh and in the list of things you call him you forgot the bit about being a p(that’s enough! Ed)  Vance might be worse in many ways - but he doesn’t have the “glam” that Trump has. Once Trump is exposed properly or dies, nowhere near as many people will vote for his successor see also his embarrassing fanboy: Farage 
    • At least he is no doubt classified as a "useful idiot" by the Russians
