I'm considering buying this fast70 sim from True. To use it on my ipad. It gives 70gb of data per month. If I have youtube on all day on the ipad will 70gb be sufficient? Thank you in advance for your input. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/fast70-70gb-1000mbps-maxspeed-sim-true-1-sim-melonthai-i2566699216-s9137806411.html?trafficFrom=17449020_303586&laz_trackid=2:mm_162061066_129452595_2088552536:clkgjnmn51icc3bkser1p0&mkttid=clkgjnmn51icc3bkser1p0

I just lost my iphone? What should I do next?
watthong replied to watthong's topic in Apple Products
The thing is this phone's sim does not have cellular/data connection. Meaning It doesn't have wifi on its own. With find my on, my Apple acct does see it, but only at the last position when it connected to a wifi hot spot, which usually is my ipad. In short my find can only locates this phone when it is in my possession. Out of my reach, it goes "dark." However I guess I can "brand" it as "lost" so it will be locked whenever I want to, no matter where it happens to be? -
Re internet usage, from your experience, if having youtube on almost constantly all day, will the 70gb per month suffice? Do you notice any slowing down when you are on line?

I just lost my iphone? What should I do next?

Absolutely. I've got the phone back now. Here's how: I was thinking, rightly, that deactivating the sim card means putting the (physical) phone to sleep, ie if and when you call the phone after deactivation, it would be silent. I couldn't just do euthanasia without giving it a chance to life first. So from another phone, I called the lost phone in the afternoon. It was picked up on the 3rd ring, it was the kind older taxi driver that I used yesterday. My Thai was good enough to tell him who I was and he asked why I waited that long to call him. In short, he was anxious to return the phone. He was on a customer ride across town so after that he would turn around and head toward my area. He wanted to be paid for the trip, I said ok naturally. He arrived at my local Lotus, we met and I paid him the amount, plus the high way toll. And a nice tip. He handed me my phone. A pleasant, heart-warming encounter. Back home, I checked the "lost phone" and the find my feature was off. The battery had 20 percent left, would last one more day. Thank you all for all your advice and I learned quite a bit from this experience. Cheers, -

Sure, will do. Did not think of that option, actually did not know that's how lost phones/sims are dealt with. Thanks for the advice. -

Thanks for this info, great if I can get the old number back in use. Re find my phone, the lost phone is not showing up there, since the sim is only for calls, no cellular data, no wifi. It has only password lock and touchid lock. btw, I changed my apple ID password last night. Anything else I can do under the circumstance? -

Thanks, will try to make that arrangement. Right now I guess since the phone apps on the lost phone are not logged in at all, what can the "bad guys " do with just the phone number itself? -

Correct. I guess I have to do some foot work, last time I had a good look at the phone was in the restroom stall at the mall. So I would eventually need to go back there and ask the lady janitor - though fat chance if it was still there for her to find it in the first place. Second place, the taxi. I might try to call the phone and supposedly the driver got it (he was a nice older man) how would he answer the phone if he can not get pass the passcode/touch id? -

the lost phone has no cellular, It will need to log onto wifi source somewhere to, say, do facetime and such. Ditto for messaging ie SMS I need to do it from a phone that has a sim card, which I do not have right now. -

Don't they need to enter passcode/touchidcode first in order to be able to answer the call? -

The phones I have with me right now have no sims. I'm thinking of going out to get sims from 7/11 but I don't think the staff will register/activate it for me? -

by shutting down you mean loggin out? from all devices from my "main" ipad, it shows only the other iphone I have with me right now, the one with no sim. The lost on doesn't show up, maybe I have never turned on find my device of whatever on it? Also no bank apps on the lost phone. I have them installed but never logging on any bank app on that phone. -

uh oh, I have another phone used at home (no sims) for line and such. Since I just changed apple id password, it now asked me to sign in again, and then asked for verification code that comes out on my "main" ipad for two factor authentication. I entered the code I got from the ipad onto this phone and it says incorrect code. I re entered the code and again, incorrect. Now I'm afraid to do it a 3rd less I get locked out on this phone. This one does have one bank app. -

I did that, however in manage devices the lost phone is not listed (what happened?) btw the sim card used in that phone is a prepaid sim card for phone call only, no internet. I just changed the password of my Apple ID that has probably been logged onto that phone. Also I can not call bank center due to not having the phone to tell them to disconnect the lost sim number. Probably first thing in the morning is going to the mall to physically report to the banks. And also to get a new sim to use on an old windows phone (sad....) But for now I don't know what else I can do? -
I probably left my phone somewhere around the mall early this evening, or it might have dropped out of my pocket inside the taxi on the way home. I only used it for the sim card, no banking or monetary app opened on it. I guess in the ios ecosystem, it is connected via find my iphone feature with other ipads/iphones I have at home, thought I don't know how to use it beside turning the feature on and off. The sim card is on my bank records so I guess I need to alert the banks on that. Anything else I should do? Any way to trace it? Important details: it has both numeric and touchid passcode on it so I don't think anyone else can use it? Am I correct? Thank you in advance for your advice. Much appreciated.

Sure, funny isn't it. Especially if you hang out around tourist spots or the rich falang (as opposed to the newcomer refugee ralangs from you know where) stomping grounds (MBK,. Central. ICONSiam).
