- Etisalat subscribers line up to re-register their phone numbers on the last date.
Dubai: The third phase of SIM card re-registration ended on Tuesday and there
was a mad rush at all the point of sales of etisalat, du and shopping
centres.
Mandated by the UAE Telecom Regulatory Authority, re-registration will
ultimately protect subscribers from misuse or confidentiality
infringement.
Subscribers who have re-registered their SIM cards after getting an SMS
notification within the due date will be prevented from disconnection of
lines.
Those failing to submit their details will have outgoing calls blocked, but
will receive incoming calls during the grace period.
The TRA has advised mobile subscribers to abide by the regulation and update
their personal details through etisalat and du.
Etisalat and du did not respond to Gulf News queries, but du said that they
will issue a press release late on Tuesday.
