    You must report it as stolen to your provider (Vodafone) as, until you do so, you are liable for calls made.

    You can call Vodafone customer services free from a landline on 0808 0000 166.

    Thats absolutely right Dave, but the handset/sim is PAYG so call cost is limited.

    So it is, didn't realise that.

    You will still need to report it to Vodafone in order to have another SIM issued with that phone number.
