I don't know if he actually lost any phones, I always assumed that was a lie just like his debit card being eaten by an ATM. He never had debit cards, he always used sandra's and meigh's so when meigh left he might of finally gotten a prepaid one. But in the video of him calling Meigh a paedo, being jealous of Harry, elaborating that he forced Meigh to put out the lolicon denounce tweet, and the only time I ever heard him call her Amanda Morris instead of pantsu, as he's talking about his lost phone you can see him holding it and moving it around on his desk in the reflection of his glasses, unless it's a new phone. Either way I just don't believe anything Ralph says until there's definitive proof otherwise. Is his truck still in the "shop?" How come he had to uber at all?
It's more likely he couldn't afford to pay his bill, I wonder who is going to steal his apartment when he gets kicked out.
