Good day. My iPhone was lost and I want to disable it but can’t remember the iCloud activation. I have my invoice
iPhone XR
Apple does NOT get involved in lost or stolen phones. We are all provided simple tools (Find My and Activation Lock) to ensure if our phones fall in the hands of a thief or stranger they cannot use it - EVER. Since it appears you didn't use those simple tools that was a huge mistake on your part.
As deggie correctly suggests, your only option is to ask your cellular provider to blacklist your phone if they offer that option.
No, there is no way for anyone to remotely turn on Activation Lock. Your carrier can blacklist your IMEI number.
If you already set up Find My iPhone prior to it being lost no one will be able to access it, it will go into Activation Lock. If you did not do so it is too late.
Thank you fir the reply but this does not help. I do not have access to the iPhone and do not remember the iCloud used to activate it. I want to disable my phone so the person that found it or stole it can not use it or access my information.
Thank you fir the reply.
now o know where I stand
You're welcome.
Thank you for the reply.
I am sure that someone stole my phone. I Left it for a minute and came right back and it was gone and turned off. I just want to disable it so it could only be a brick and totally unusable. I called my number a few days ago and someone answered. I contacted my carrier to see if the y can assist and they said the only thing they can do is disconnect the number.
the person only has to purchase another sim and insert it and they will be able to use it again.
ibwant to disable this instrument so it will be rendered useless.
is there a way to contact Apple to do this? I have my purchase invoice from the store I bought it from and I have the IMEI number.
thanks again
Good day. My iPhone was lost and I want to disable it but can’t remember the iCloud activation. I have my invoice if purchase and the imei number. How can I disable this phone?
