How to Block Stolen Mobile

The Pakistan Telecommunications Authority has introduced a new automated LSDS system for blocking lost, stolen, or snatched mobile phones. Users who want to block their stolen, lost, or stolen mobile phones will avail this facility through an online application. However this request can be made based on IME number, and the user has to provide IME number and block his phone. In this regard, a press release has also been issued by PTA, the draft of which is presented to you:

Press Release (cont’d): If the phone has been recovered, the complainant will have to follow the same procedure for unblocking through CMS and mention their complaint reference number along with other mandatory detail that was given to them earlier for blocking of mobile phone. User will receive an SMS on the registered number once the mobile phone is unblocked.

It may be mentioned that currently stolen, snatched and lost mobile phones can be blocked or unblocked by calling PTA’s toll free number 0800-25625, sending email to imei@pta.gov.pk or through CPLC, Karachi. After launch of the new system, these mediums will not be available for blocking or unblocking of phones.
