Phone Finder Details:

Once again Rogers is the first to launch a new, innovative, national service to help customers find their mobile phone. Phone Finder helps customers find their mobile phone instantly on an interactive map using a PC, tablet or smartphone.

Phone Finder is available to all our postpaid customers as part of the Handset Protection Guarantee. Customers get 5 free look-ups per month and pay only $0.20 per additional look-up. This service is available on all phones, so no need to download an app unlike other similar services available.
