Computing devices that are owned by the University of Otago may include smartphones, laptops, desktops, tablets, and related devices.
How do I report a lost or stolen device
To report a lost or stolen device:
- If you know that the device has been stolen, call the New Zealand Police on 105 to report it as soon as possible.
- Contact the Proctor's Office to notify them of the loss and to get further advice.
- Contact AskOtago so the device can be prevented from accessing the University network.
- Contact your departmental administration if it is a University-owned device.
Outside of normal business hours, report the loss or theft of University-owned mobile devices directly to the approved mobile service provider so that outgoing calls, texts, and data usage from your mobile can be barred and no charges incurred on your mobile device account:
