My son's 3gs was stolen today. I've had a look in here and on 2 degrees site and can't find anything about blacklisting the imei so it can't be used. I've already blacklisted it on vodafone (he was on prepay with them) but I don't want the little puke who took it to be able to use it on any other network here.

Can anyone tell me what to do? I'm in Auckland, Papatoetoe.

edit: I've already called 2 degrees helpdesk and been advised that it can't be done, but then all the thief has to do is put in a sim and away they go. Just want to know for sure.

(sorry for double post in Telecom forum as well, but I need to know for them too.)
