Can the “Block SIM” function be used to effectively disable my child’s phone whenever I need to? e.g. when I need to impose a sanction if she’s hidden the phone and won’t hand it over to me. I guess this will only prevent calls and mobile data. Presumably I can unblock it in the same way?

Are there any consequences of using this feature such as a limit to the number of times I can do it? Thank you.

Hello @GaryF,

 

It’s not something that would be used to impose a sanction so to speak as it blocks the SIM & blacklists the handset on the network.

Though a quick message to us via Social Media will allow us to raise a request to un-block this, it’s not going to be a case of ON & OFF.

 

It’s a great feature to bear in mind though so I’ll certainly pass on feedback in the hopes it’s something that can be added in the future :)
