IT'S NOT FOOLPROOF THOUGH ... cos all you got to do is NOT respond to the REQUEST and then yuo can claim to your family member/company boss ... that you were in an area without signal - or you had your mobile off OR you didn't here the text message tone.
Not 100% foolproof but I can see how on the ODD occasion it MIGHT be of some use - but I hardly see it as a great money making business!

Dont miss the most important thing here, it DOESN'T tell you where the person is.........it only tells you where the persons Sim/Phone is.
If you were an employee, you could just get a mate to take your phone to the place it was meant to be, & OK the search request.
Same as if your Girlfriend was likely to use the system, I always carry 2 phones anyway.

Does anyone know, if you can track a mobile phone number anywhere in Europe?!
If not... That will be the next step!!

Well I know Telia had this "find your friends" campaign. So I guess the security there wasn't all too great. Since you was suppose to lock a nickname to your phone and then when someone sent an sms to some number and "search niklas" or something. You would get an sms back telling where he is. But this was only for Telia Mobile users.

A base covers at least 10km in the city and 30 km in the opened spaces. So the program tells u nuthin..and u have to pay. And what about that sms?i'd refuse it comin from anybody anyway-i am not on probation damn it!

A base station does not cover 10 kms...
There are several of them in the little town I live in. There's been a system like this here in norway now for a while and the accuracy of it seems to be about 500m(this still sucks) maybe even less(this varies. It may be less accurate in less populated areas..).
But don't worry about you boss.. You phone has this little thing called "the off button" or "power button"
Which you can use to "turn off" or "switch off" your phone.
For thos of you lucky enough to own a p800 you even have a "flight mode" mode which is even more usefull as the phone stays on and can keep telling you what time it is or something like that.

is the request just once or every time you trace the fone cos if it was just once i.e. on setup then u could trace anytime you want .... if this was the case it would be an amazing security device if your fone was stollen then you could find it

Sorry to repeat myself:a base covers at least 1okm in a plain terrain with buildings no more than 10-15m hi. The little antenas u see r re-transmiters of the signals as a base every 10km is inadequate economically speaking. Maybe its my english..

You only need to get your mate to accept the request to track them once and thats it, use and abuse as much as you like. But as others seem to think its a load of hogwash well what can I say besides try it and see.........
