Risks for Prepaid Mobile Phone Users
July 9, 2025
Tens of thousands of prepaid mobile phone users are at risk of losing their numbers on November 3, 2025, if they do not verify their identities. Mobile operators have made little progress in customer identification, with Cyta identifying only 17% of customers. There is a decreasing trend in prepaid card users due to a preference for unlimited service packages. Prepaid cards are mainly used by young people and tourists, raising concerns about potential deactivation.
