Losing or having your phone stolen is a big trouble, particularly in larger cities such as Karachi and Lahore. Because it’s nearly hard to find your phone again, most people prefer to remotely disable it so that your sensitive data doesn’t get into the wrong hands.
Fortunately, the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) has launched an online complaint portal for reporting and disabling lost/stolen phones. The new Lost & Stolen Device System (LSDS) makes it simple to file a complaint online with all of the relevant information, allowing you to report the problem as quickly as possible.
Here’s how to do it yourself:
To report a stolen or missing phone to PTA, simply click on this link to access their online complaint system. In a complaint form, you will submit personal information such as your name, address, email, CNIC, and so on. You will also be required to supply information on your missing device as well as the reasons for blocking.
