Abstract In this research article, we introduce ℐ {\mathcal{I}} -statistically pre-Cauchy sequences of complex uncertain variables in five different aspects of uncertainty, namely: in mean, in measure, in distribution, in almost sure, and in uniformly almost sure. We also explore the connection between ℐ {\mathcal{I}} -statistically pre-Cauchy sequences and ℐ {\mathcal{I}} -statistically convergent sequences using complex uncertain variables. Additionally, we initiate the study of ℐ {\mathcal{I}} -statistically pre-Cauchy sequences of complex uncertain variables through Orlicz functions.
