With the development of society, nowadays, mobile phones have become the most important communication and entertainment tool in people's lives.
Among them, the mobile phone number, like the ID card, has become almost everyone's exclusive ID.
It's just that unlike ID cards, we can change or have multiple mobile phone numbers at any time, which is relatively unique.
But this brings another problem, that is, personal information bound to a mobile phone number can be easily leaked.
Because in most cases, our mobile phone numbers are bound to a lot of bank cards and apps.
In this context, recently, the topic of #Canceling a mobile phone number is equivalent to selling yourself# rushed to the hot search, which sparked heated discussions among netizens.

The cause of the incident was @徐督督发布的一条科普视频 policeman of the Tongling City Public Security Bureau in Anhui Province.
In the video, it is said that "canceling the mobile phone number is tantamount to selling yourself, and the mobile phone number that is canceled at will is likely to cause property damage".
To put it simply, it means that the mobile phone number we cancel will be re-put into the market by the operator after a period of time.
The next person to use the mobile phone number can log in directly through the mobile phone verification code to log in to our WeChat, Alipay and other software.
In this video, it is suggested that before canceling the mobile phone number, you should take an extra step to unbind all the relevant software bound to this mobile phone number, and the mobile phone number reserved by the bank card should also be modified in time.
Not surprisingly, this video has aroused the concern of netizens, and many netizens have appeared in the comment area to say that they have been recruited.
For example, there are those who have received the express delivery and loan information of the previous number owner, and there are also social apps that have lost their accounts because they have not changed their mobile phone number in time, resulting in the inability to log in......
Similar encounters abound.
As the matter fermented, the three major operators also made relevant responses.
According to China Mobile's customer service, under normal circumstances, cancelled mobile phone numbers will not be put back on the market until 1-2 years later.
However, the customer service still recommends that users bind a new phone number to the software they use within three months after the number is cancelled.
If you need to cancel your mobile phone number, you can go to the local business hall with your ID card.
In addition, before canceling your mobile phone number, you must remember to unbind some accounts that contain sensitive information, such as bank cards, etc.
China Telecom's customer service also said that mobile phone numbers are recycled according to national regulations, and there will generally be a 90-day freezing period after cancellation.
After the expiration date, it may be put on the market, although whether it will be re-launched at that time depends on the situation.
China Unicom's customer service said that the user's mobile phone number cannot be retrieved after being cancelled for more than 90 days, and the re-delivery time cannot be determined.
It is not difficult to find from the operator's reply that after canceling the mobile phone number, the number will generally have a three-month protection period.
After that time, the number may be put back on the market.
Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is best for us to change and unbind the platform bound to the mobile phone number within three months.
As for the most convenient method, in fact, Guo has popularized science with everyone before, that is, to use the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's "one-card check".
The so-called "one-card check" is a public welfare inquiry service jointly launched by the Anti-Fraud Center of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the three major operators under the guidance of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
The service went live in 2021 and has evolved to version 2.0 with new platforms and features being added all the time.
Let's talk about how to use it.
Taking WeChat as an example, we can find the inquiry entrance through the official account of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology "Gongxin Weibao", "Ministry of Industry and Information Technology Anti-fraud Special Team" and "China Academy of Information and Communications Technology" official account.
Here is another example of the "Gongxin Weibao" public account.
First of all, search for "Gongxin Weibao" in WeChat and pay attention to the official account of Gongxin Weibao.
In the menu bar under the Gongxin Weibao, find "Government Service" - "One Card Search".
Then, select "Internet Account" to enter the inquiry page.
After entering, select the enterprise to which you want to query the account below, and enter the mobile phone number, the last 6 digits of the ID number, and the verification code to query.
After you submit your information, you'll be prompted to send you an SMS to you within 48 hours, and you'll usually receive a receipt on the same day.
If you need to query the details or unbind the account, you can click "Unbind and Query the Details Instructions" on the query page and then perform related operations.
If there is any objection to the query result, you can also call the enterprise customer service telephone for consultation.
In addition, Alipay users can also directly search for "one card check" in Alipay, and you can see the query entrance, and the operation is basically the same.
Students in need, you can try it now.
