Exercise in futility..not quite....probably after the period is over all non registered sim cards will be deactivated and one will be required to register ones details for reactivation of the sims

Well managed,this will never be an exercise in futility!!!!

The chief value of money lies in the fact that one lives in a world in which it is overestimated.

They can not block any line because of lack of registraton. Just look at how competitiön is stiffening until safaricom are sending our texts at 1bob each.

A likely impossibility is always preferable to an unconvincing posibility.

Diactivating or canceling lines is not good for business.

It may be bad for business. How about making it a law? and accross the board so that there are no issues of competition. Why do I have the feeling that some of us here on SK are opposed to this.

I know of a friend who was conned by a guy masquerading as a landlord at Highrise estate. If all mobile phone users were registered,this guy would have been nabbed by now

It&rsquo;s a small leap in the right direction&hellip; ID database should also be up-to-date with everyone&rsquo;s physical address... just like in the west&hellip;hio mambo ya P O Box itupiliwe mbali&hellip; that way you can be traced to you doorstep&hellip;fake ID&rsquo;s are everywhere&hellip; ID alone haiwesmek

@ spend thrift,i agree with you. If they make this the law then all companies will be required to comply and competition will not apply. It will also be a good way of establishing exactly how many subscribers are in any one network since you might find one person holding several lines

@ half,maybe they should consider providing the mobile companies access to govt databases on ID holders to along with the person's photo to verify that information provided is correct
