Concerns about changing and canceling mobile phone numbers
The topic comes from a popular science video prompt posted by a police officer in Tongling, Anhui Province on his social account a few days ago: Canceling a mobile phone number is tantamount to betraying yourself. When the mobile phone number is no longer used, go to the business hall to cancel it, and after a while, the operator will put the mobile phone number back into the market. The next person who uses your mobile phone number can use the mobile phone verification code to log in to your Alipay, WeChat and other software, and the consequences are unimaginable. You might as well go one step further and unbind all the software bound to this mobile phone number, and the mobile phone number reserved by the bank card must also be modified.
The three major operators responded
How long will it take for a cancelled mobile phone number to be re-put on the market, and can new users still be able to check the previous usage records of the mobile phone number?
The reporter called China Unicom's customer service phone as a consumer, and the customer service staff said that the user's mobile phone number could not be retrieved after being cancelled for more than 90 days, and the cancelled number would indeed be re-put into the "number pool", but the time of delivery could not be determined. In addition, after the mobile phone number is activated by a new user, the new user cannot query the payment details and other relevant usage records of the previous number owner of the number.
China Telecom's customer service staff said that all numbers are recycled according to national regulations, but there will be a 90-day freezing period after the user's mobile phone number is cancelled. After this period, it may be re-placed on the market. However, it is uncertain whether it will be put on the market in the future, and whether it will be put on the market.
In addition, the telecom customer service staff said that if you want to check how many numbers are under your name, you can search for "one card check" in the operator's App for inquiry, or you can bring your ID card to the business hall to inquire, and you can also query the specific mobile phone number in the business hall. If you receive a text message from an unregistered app or website during use, you can call the corresponding app, website or other customer service for consultation.
China Mobile's customer service staff said that the cancelled mobile phone number may be re-put into the market. If you receive a text message from an app or bank that you are not currently using for unknown reasons, please be vigilant and contact the relevant enterprise or bank to inquire about your personal information in a timely manner.
Some operators have also launched a unified processing of registered information on multiple Internet platforms. Take the China Unicom App as an example, enter "One Number Search" in the search bar at the top to find the service. The "No. 1 Search" service is a mobile phone number information sharing mechanism established by the code number service promotion group between the code number service platform, operators, Internet and other industry service units, and opens the service to users, that is, mobile phone number users can query the Internet enterprises and applications that access the code number service platform, and can apply to clean up the Internet applications that are not registered by themselves under the number, so as to improve the user's experience in the Internet application registration service.
