Let me explain fully.
Since November 2007 all NEW SIMS have had to be registered. All PAYG customers who bought their cards BEFORE November 2007 have until 8th November 2009 to register on threat of having their number cancelled. By all accounts the registration process is going quite smoothly. Orange speeded up the process by voluntarily cancelling all cards that had not been used once in 12 months - that saved 500,000 phantom a/cs on their databases.
If anybody has any specific questions pls feel free to PM me.
I REPEAT this new registration process applies ONLY to PAYG (and NOT to contract) and ONLY those first sold BEFORE Nov 2007. All others have ALREADY been added to the central databases.
