Many SIM cards with little use are easily forgotten
Currently, in addition to phone numbers used for daily communication, many people also use SIM cards for tablets, mobile WiFi routers, surveillance cameras, positioning devices or other IoT devices.
These are subscribers who often generate fewer calls, messages or only serve data connections. After installing the device, many people almost do not check it again for a long time.
Meanwhile, if these subscribers are still active and are required to carry out confirmation or authentication according to regulations, users still need to proactively complete the procedures according to the instructions of the telecommunications enterprise.
Check even old phone numbers that are still in name
In addition to data SIMs, users should also check phone numbers that have been registered many years ago but are currently rarely used.
These can be backup SIMs, SIMs used for work, phone numbers registered for online accounts or subscribers only turned on when needed.
If there is still a need to use, people should ensure that these subscribers have completed the confirmation or authentication according to regulations.
Conversely, if they no longer use it, people should consider contacting telecommunications businesses to be guided on handling according to regulations, instead of continuing to maintain subscribers who no longer have demand.
You should check each device instead of just remembering the phone number
According to carriers, the review will be more convenient if users check each device they are using instead of just trying to remember how many phone numbers they have.
People can in turn check the main phone, secondary phone, tablet, WiFi router, surveillance camera or other devices that use SIMs.
This review method helps to limit omissions of subscribers who are rarely used but still need to maintain operations.
Proactively check before moving to the next handling milestone
According to the implementation roadmap, from August 15, subscribers who have not completed confirmation or authentication according to regulations will be temporarily suspended from providing two-way telecommunications services.
Therefore, instead of waiting until close to this time to check, people should proactively review all phone numbers they are using or are in their names, including subscribers who use less.
Early checks not only help limit the risk of service interruption but also help users better manage their subscribers, avoiding forgetting or missing SIMs that are working on many different devices.
