You: a despicable piece of phone-thieving shit.
Me: a young mum, trying to reenter the work force, shopping with my son.
Thanks, you gargantuan piece of shitwaste. I hope my Blackberry Torch spontaneously combusts next to your ear, and leaves you with a scar which complements the enormous gouge you just put in my bank account. I’m on a contract, you fuckwad and now I have to replace this phone, and I am PAYING FOR A DATA PLAN, motherfuker, this is not cheap. So, suck a karma dick. Something wicked is coming for you, and I hope it’s herpes on your face. —Cherrybomb

What a country we live in!!! Even a unemployed single mother has enough money to shop, and have a blackberry with a data plan.
Holy fuck. How do you figure she’s a single mom? Maybe she has a partner who works and is re-entering the labour force after taking an extended (non-covered) maternity leave. No where in this bitch did she describe herself as being single.
An Apple a day keeps the crackberries at bay….
Not sure why you don’t go to where you purchased it from and have them track it through the GPS chip that should be in it. There should be a record of the serial number. Oh and call the police.
there is… and tell me you at least had the basic security set so they can’t just up and use it on your plan?
ALWAYS SET PASSWORDS ON MOBILES… it makes the thing fairly useless to others if you do lose it.
Read the last three lines of the bitch. Who would want to date let alone marry a classy gal with a mouth like that? Why would you even mention wether you are a mother or not? It’s not like criminals really care what your circumstances are. It sounds like she left her phone somewhere and someone picked it up. Did she even check with the lost and found booth? I left my iphone in an Irving bathroom, called the store, cashier and he said it wasn’t there. I called my phone again and the cashier answered it and said someone picked it up, forgot about it and then came back to the store and returned it. Maybe the phone wasn’t stolen at all. Lots of assumptions goin on here.
I know with the iPhone if you get a mobileme account they can tell you where your phone is if it gets stolen, I would imagine there’s something similar for Blackberries.
Follow bro tim’s advice if you feel like wasting a half hour of your life.

ok, blackberry won’t specifically…
but the free ‘Track and Protect’ app would have helped you out on this one.
Also zZz, I thought you could get insurance for a few bucks a month or something. I’ve never owned a smart phone, myself. I just cracked the screen on my iPod touch after only having it for about 10 weeks. I wasn’t a happy camper. It still works though.
I’m thinkin about buyin the new iPhone when it comes out before Christmas, my contract will be almost expired by then, and I will damn sure get some kind of insurance for it, and a tracker app.
You live you learn OP. I dunno why people bother stealing phones anymore. I guess if you’re with Rogers the thief can just get a sim card and stick it in your phone and it’s now theirs. One reason I’m with Telus, no sim cards. Also, I dunno if this is the case anymore but Rogers phones used to interfere with other electronics like home or car stereos every time you get a call. Shit sounded like brain tumors coming out of my speakers, so I went with Telus. But I digress.
Anything of value should be protected as if it were your bladder in that purse/pocket/pinafore.
I am married!! I have been raising my kids! and in fact, I was making sure my son wasn’t running off, instead of minding the much less valuable item. Theft is WRONG, no matter if I am an unemployed single mother, or WASP, you lousy judgmental assholes. wow, I can’t believe the crap I get for posting a legitimate complaint in a section called “love the way we bitch” Shame on YOU!!!!!
I would like to add a) I have a security password. b) I called Rogers immediately and had them block the call features. c) I called the police and filed the report.
Just an FYI – it’s possible stolen cell phones are covered under your tenants or homeowners insurance, if you find yourself in the same circumstance.
@Steven Harper is the Devil – I’m sorry you’re so awfully judgmental and simultaneously knowledgeable about who is marriage material, but since this is an open forum, take your opinion and shove it – your two cents is worthless.
Contact your provider and see what can and should be done there Jessica and I’m sorry about the blackberry, that really stinks.
However, about the bitch board, once you get to know the folks here, you’ll come to realize we’re a fair bunch. We treat everybody with the same amount of scorn and ridicule.
OP, way to go at putting your priorities of a Blackberry ahead of providing for your son. You don’t need a Blackberry. You’re unemployed (not “re-entering the work force”). Get your priorities straight. Saying you are a young mom bitching she lost her Blackberry draws a picture of white trash.
I can track mine online. I can lock it up, and leave a message on the front screen, or I can force a memory reset to protect my privacy.
Op, don’t worry about people like Sebastian; his mother “draws a picture of white trash who put her blackberry ahead of providing for her son”. He hates women because his mother was a neglectful sociopath who couldn’t teach him the basics of human decency and so created the same thing out of him. Don’t listen to a word he says.
Sorry about your blackberry getting stolen! Did you try calling the number? Chances are someone decent saw it and took it as a precaution against someone less honest; I found an iphone once and took it from where it had been sitting on a playground bench for about 20 minutes, and when the owner’s friend called it, I told her about having the phone and the owner got it back an hour later. Over the years I lost my phone 3 times (ok, I can be a bit scattered) but was able to retrieve it each time the same way! Thank fuck for nice people!! Only once did it go missing permanently and that was because I got pickpocketed by an old gypsy lady who reached into my purse as her friend distacted me. Good luck!
And fuck off to you, too Harper! I am a stay at home mother until my child turns 4, and the reason I AM is because my husband`s salary is enough to afford having me stay home to raise him! And yes, that means when he bought himself a blackberry, he bought ME a blackberry as well…because he recognizes the fact that I WORK my ass off!
So what you’re really saying is, you have herpes?

hay hay, i disabled cookies. the bear showed me how, i am so smrt^^
That stinks OP 🙁 I recently lost a phone, I suspect it could have been stolen, but I can’t prove anything so I really don’t know what happened to it. Nothing hurts like ponying up all the cash in full for the cost of a handset. The only positive side of my lost phone is the one I chose to replace it is a pretty sweet handset, and will work better for what I need my smartphone to do. Live and learn, I use lots of (small) mobile devices and have over the years, I’ve never lost/had one stolen before and hopefully I won’t again any time soon. Mobile phones really can open worlds for people, sometimes getting that call for a job interview wherever your are or being able to call for help if your car breaks down or whatever makes a big difference in people’s lives (I can’t imagine how crappy it would be to be in distress with a young child somewhere, without the ability to call a friend or loved one, or heaven forbid somebody ever needs it, an emergency responder).

If you’re a stay-at-home mother then why do you need a BlackBerry? There’s already a clock on the stove and I doubt there’s any apps that change diapers. I’m with SHITD.
