It's true, my regret wearing shorts with loose pockets, still amazed the pickpocket had flown to Cordoba with my phone by 11am Monday. The worst thing to lose are the photos and videos, my WiFi had been on the blink all week so iCloud had never backed up. In any case, it was an amazing festival...

Do you have a link to the statistics? Saturday was definitely the quietest day, even though it was the best day for my taste, and it felt a bit of a weigh up between Friday and Sunday being busier. Friday felt busier in the day and Sunday felt busier at night. The biggest crowd I saw from my...

Just a heads up, I've spent all week back and forth with apple support and the British underwriter which underwrites AppleCare plus. They were extremely unhelpful - whenever I logged into my apple id here it said I had no coverage. The solution: I logged into my apple id with a British IP...

Thank you so much. I'll give this a try. Its sad to realise how common theft can be here, this afternoon I took a taxi through retiro and saw somebody ambushed by a motorcycle and have their pushbike aggresively stolen. It was sad to see, particularly being powerless at a distance within the...

There's a little bit of circular logic that the police require in needing to call to report the theft of a phone, but I'll give it a go now I've got a temporary phone. Thank you very much

Also, in any case, apple have been useless with beginning the claim and have referred me to the British underwriter and hopefully I'll have an easier time dealing with them

I think so, but it doesn't seem terribly likely that I'm going to get one

Gave this a whirl this afternoon. They ushered me to another police station on Lavalle who told me that I can't report it there and have to phone them. I guess it's a futile exercise, especially given how far away my phone now is

I've seen a reference here to tourist police for this kind of situation but the link is broken. Is this something that still exists? https://wander-argentina.com/general-safety-travel-tips/#What_to_do_if_You_Are_a_Victim_of_a_Crime_in_Buenos_Aires

I've not got a DNI to use Mercado Pago but my foreign credit card working is sufficient for me. On another note, as part of my AppleCare Plus insurance for my phone, I think I need to contact the police to get a crime reference number to provide for insurance. Does anybody have any experience...

Thank you, that seemed to work and it accepted my foreign card. Though the data limits are super low with Personal, I guess I will try to get a Claro SIM later this week. Sadly my stolen phone is already in Cordoba, seems whoever stole it at Lollapalooza last night left in a hurry this morning

Hi, sadly my phone was stolen at Lollapalooza yesterday night. My WiFi is really unreliable and I really need to be able to use data to work in the morning if my internet isn't working. I've managed to get a phone here and a sim card but I do not know how to add money to it. Is there an easy way...
