Even though the deadline for Sim Card registration has passed, some unregistered Sim Cards are still in use. What happens to users of unregistered SIM cards is the current question.
The planned operation to block all unregistered SIM card users on Saturday, October 1, 2022, has been currently put on hold.
The purpose of this is to provide the Ministry of Communication and Digitalization a chance to review the planned procedure’s road map.
This will give the Ministry of Communication and Digitalization an opportunity to review the planned procedure’s road map.
What occurs to Sim Card users who aren’t registered?
Graphic Online cited a credible source close to the SIM registration process who said that the new date and the methods would be notified early next week, but that the same punitive measures as seen earlier in September would be enforced once again.
On Friday morning, the NCA met with the telecoms to finalize the details, and the telcos confirmed their preparedness to proceed with the exercise to block the unregistered SIMs as of the deadline’s expiration on Friday, September 30, 2022.
Those who have already completed the first step in the registration process (that is, linking their Ghana Cards to their SIM cards via *404#) have been given till the end of the year [2022] to complete the second step.
People who haven’t registered their SIM cards at all will be unable to make or receive calls or use data services, among other things.
However, these unregistered users can begin the registration process by dialing *404# and will receive their unique codes via text message.
