In the process of reviewing subscribers in the past, many people were surprised to discover that the phone number they are actually using is in someone else's name.
This is a fairly common situation for SIMs registered many years ago. There are cases where parents buy SIMs for their children to use, couples share registration information or relatives stand out to carry out procedures when buying SIMs.
Due to stable use for a long time, many people almost forget who is the subscriber on the system.
First, it is necessary to check whose name the SIM is in.
According to the Telecommunications Authority (Ministry of Science and Technology), users should re-check their subscriber information before paying attention to the next steps of processing.
If the phone number being used appears on your own VNeID and is confirmed as "Using", then basically no additional procedures related to confirming the subscriber status arise.
Conversely, if the SIM is in someone else's name, users should proactively review it to avoid future problems.
Will a SIM card in a relative's name be locked immediately?
This is a question that many people are interested in in recent days. The fact that the SIM is in a relative's name does not mean that the subscriber will be automatically locked after June 15.
However, if the subscriber is subject to authentication according to regulations or requires information updates from the network operator, the fact that the subscriber and the actual user are not the same person may make the processing process more complicated.
Should consider transferring subscriber usage rights
For phone numbers that are being used for a long time and attached to banks, e-wallets, or important digital services, users may consider transferring usage rights to the actual user.
Synchronization between subscribers and users will help limit risks arising when information verification or related procedures are required in the future.
Don't forget to check on VNeID
According to the Telecommunications Authority, people should proactively access VNeID to check all phone numbers that are in their name.
If it is discovered that subscribers are no longer using or are not under control, users need to confirm the correct status according to the system's instructions.
