@Janeeric If it was password protected then no they can not use it. They’ll need your passcode to gain access to it. If it wasn’t passcode protected I highly recommend you change your passwords for all the apps you had on the device.

You also need to use to login to your iCloud account on a PC/Mac and go to find my you might be able to find the device as find my is enabled by default. You can also mark the device as lost.

@Janeeric : They will be able to use it over WiFi but not over the mobile network if EE blocked it.

Hello @Janeeric.

Welcome to the community.

If your SIM has been suspended and the phone has been blacklisted the phone will not be able to be used.

Whatever you do, DON’T deregister your Apple ID from that phone. That way it will remain a paperweight. Sure, it can still be broken down into parts but at least the value won’t be as high.
