Ufone is
renowned in the industry for taking care of your needs. From voice, data and
SMS to entertainment, infotainment and education, we make sure all your telecom
needs are met. To safeguard your privacy, to ensure a safe and secure SIM
registration process for your peace of mind and to make the SIM registration
procedure even more convenient for you, Ufone has decided to implement
biometric verification at Ufone Customer Service Centres and Franchises from
the 31st of July, 2014 onwards.
Through a
simple process, outlined below, you will be able to procure your Ufone SIM in a
timely and convenient manner:
Walk into
any Ufone Customer Service Center, Franchise or Retail Outlet with your
original CNIC.
The Customer
Service Representative/Franchise Representative/Retailer will check the CNIC
for SIMs already issued. If 5 SIMs have already been issued on the respective
CNIC, no further action can be taken. (Customer can check the registered SIMs
against his/her CNIC by sending 13 digit CNIC number to 668. This will return
the operator wise connection count for the submitted CNIC).
In the case
that 5 SIMs have not been issued on the respective CNIC, the details are
entered into the system and you will be asked to put your thumb on the
biometric machine. Your thumb print (and/or Index Finger and Thumb of both Left
and Right hand) will then be verified by the system, through NADRA.
Once
verified, your new, pre-activated Ufone SIM is handed over, and a confirmation
SMS is sent to the new number at the same time.
In case of
unsuccessful verification, you will be informed of the reasons by the sale
agent.
Please note
that after 31st July, 2014, SIM activation by dialing 789 will desist and SIMs
will only be registered through biometric verification. This process has been
put in place keeping your privacy and security in mind. You are requested to
comply with this new process for your own and national security in mind, so
that we can rid Pakistan of the menace of illegal SIM registration.
