Are you unable to find your mobile or tablet? Have you lost it, or perhaps it has been stolen?
Don't panic, we will guide you through a few simple steps.
The first thing to do is to suspend your SIM card and your Orange Money account (if you use it) and report the theft to the police (if your mobile or tablet has been stolen).
To suspend your account, you can:
Once you have notified us of the loss or theft of your device, we will immediately suspend your SIM card and your Orange Money account to prevent fraudulent use.
Note: your SIM card will be suspended, but your subscription remain active.
You can replace your SIM card and recover your subscription balances depending on the time taken to replace.
You can go to any nearest police station if you have been the victim of a theft to report the same. They will take your statement and may possibly ask you for the IMEI and Serial number of your stolen device.
The IMEI and Serial number allows a very secure identification of your mobile and it is an additional chance to identify it during any subsequent checks or searches. It can also be useful if you wish to report the theft to your own insurance company, provided mobile theft is covered by your insurance.
We recommend that you note down the number after purchase and keep it in a safe place as a precaution. It is a 15-figures number that you will find:
Go to your nearest Orange shop and get a new multi-format SIM card. It will be activated instantly to enable you to operate your new device without delay.
Note: The contacts saved on your previous SIM will not be transferred to your new card unless you had synchronised your contacts to your email address.
Do you have a contract?
This will simply continue and you will retain all available benefits of your payment plan.
Do you have a prepaid card?
You will retain your available balance and it will be automatically transferred to your new SIM card.
