i think i've seen Airtel asking one to dial *800# to register the line On Jan 28, 2013 3:53 PM, "Bwana Lawi" <mail2lawi@gmail.com> wrote:
I also registered my card at the safcom office, Moi Avenue. The safcom attendant uses some USSD (I think it was *180#) to register the number.
He asks you for the phone number and ID. I didnt fill in any form. I did get a confirmation message on the phone, however

@Wash... dont be too hard on the guy. Whistle blowing here on skunkworks is a positive step since am sure there are guys from safcom and even CCK on the list. What he needed to do was give more details of where this was happening. Recall the humming bird story.

This is NOT possible, unless things have changed!
It's mandatory to fill a form and attach a copy of the ID.
If this was not followed, then I even wonder why you had to wait to
raise
it on the list when actually you should have raised an objection right where this was happening!
Are you one of those Kenyans who wait for others to "do things for them"?? You witnessed such a serious issue and all you could do is run to skunkworks to report? :-)

I was at Safcom offices to register a sim card earlier today and I
feel
there is a flaw with the process.
A guy came in and said he wants to register his brother's number.
All he had with him was the brothers phone number and ID number and he was able to register the phone.
Mind you, he didnt have the physical ID Number. He was reading it from the phone.
With the easy access to people's ID numbers and other details right now I fear crooks can use this route to register phone numbers to unsuspecting citizens.
Also, CCK should come up with a way through which users can confirm which phone numbers are registered to their ID.
