Getting it blocked should be relatively easy.

Inform PTA and they will add it's IMEIs to the stolen phone database and it will get blocked by Pakistani networks.

However, I can't imagine that getting an IMEI removed from that blacklist is easy.

Would be best to just deal with your relative instead of getting the phone unblocked and dealing with the PTA headache.

Get in touch with his parents. Easiest way to get your phone back. Let them know how much the mobile is worth & make sure they realize that the phone was given on temporary basis & now you need it. Get his older siblings involved as well. No need to go such extreme lengths as getting your phone blocked.
If that is not possible, then threaten to file a police report. You don't need that kind of a person in your life anyway.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.

    Online session is enabled for UBL. I have an active subscription with my NayaPay card (it is already added to Google Payment Methods).

    did you try setting up Google Payments? For UBL you may have to get it enabled for internet transactions, Naya should work without it!

    I tried both NayaPay, and UBL, but I keep getting "correct country selected..." error. I already have PK set there 🤦‍♂️

    The only valid thing from his pov he said in the video is AC dead since Black Flag. According to woke police that game was woke too. Welsh man in West Indies. So atleast he's consistent I guess lol

    It's based on an actual real life person so I don't think the woke police have a valid case here.

    Nope. They have a very valid case. The above video explains it all.

    Meanwhile Ghost of Tsushima PC version is out now. Looks 100 times better than ASS Creed already.

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!
