   If the monitor uses CDMA technology (Sprint and Verizon), the MEID/ESN are   
   usually on a sticker on the device.    
      
   It's very easy to clone the MEID on basic CDMA phones. Once you've cloned it,   
   you can get program by dialing *ACT. Then you will  discover your ankle   
   monitor's phone number and  be able to send/receive text messages.  With this   
   , theoretically, you could    
   register for an account with the carrier, verify with text message sent to the   
   phone (aka the ankle monitor), log in, and suspend service on the device.    
      
   On their end they will just see that communication was lost, without any   
   battery warning, powering down, or tampering alerts.  That will give you the   
   opportunity to remove it without them getting immediate notification. However   
   if you remove it while the    
   battery has a charge, the device will save the fact that it was taken off and   
   will transmit that information as soon as the account is restored.  So, your   
   only option for them to  definitely  not know that you took it off is to   
   microwave it for a few    
   seconds  to fry the damn thing.    
      
   Either way, removing it will break the plastic pins, which could land you in   
   trouble when  they asked you to come in to inspect it.    But I've heard that   
   those plastic bins come off pretty easily because are not meant to be strong   
   (The device removed    
   they actually break them off  when the device removed they actually break them   
   off themselves).
