Hi dimers,

My dad's phone redmi note 10 is lost and I need guidance on what to do to avoid misuse of it. It has all personal data and bank details. I have done the following.


1. Raised online complaint for Lost device
2. Tried to track didn't work.
3. Tried to lock and erase data using find my phone from google account and Mi cloud. But the phone is not online.
4. Called Both sim providers but one told to go to service center tomorrow to block and get a new one. The other sim provider CC said customer their system is not working and call after 4 hrs.
5. What else should i do, please suggest??? TIA

Bhai konse sim hai? What if they turn on, do transactions using the otp on the phones? Password laga hua tha phone pe? Banking apps se account/card temp block karo and see if they allow derigstration of device from netbanking

1. BSNL and VI
2. password was on
3. Thought of temporarily blocking bank accounts but can’t remember passwords. Anyway even if they try to login, they’d try reset password and for that cards details are needed. so, i am assuming it’s fine. also bank accounts in that doesn’t have too much money.

Airtel had option to bar sim via 198 call. Try it on them also. Go to main police station instead of small police station. They will give your IMEI number to operators and it can be recovered if they don't change imei number.

it can be recovered lodge police complaint and reach out to cyber cell. one of my friend cell was lost in saran bihar(small town) and was recovered in Gujrat. you need to put more effort if its worthy to. for sim cards get them deactivated immediately

It's easy to block Vi nos. using the Vi app. I don't know about the website but probably one can login using the OTP sent to either the registered email address or alternative number. I had to block 2 of them last year when my father's Redmi Note 10 Pro and mother's feature phone got stolen in a moving train. In case of Jio it was super easy.

I tried that but it doesn't have an alternate number added in it and i am not seeing any option for email otp.
