Precautions for mobile phone cards:

1. Prepare the original passport and go through the formalities in the business hall with my relevant identity information.

2. The card is your own name. Bring your ID card to the business hall to reissue it. If I am not in the local area, I must bring the owner's valid certificate to the local business hall, or I can ask the owner to write a power of attorney, and then ask my friend to bring the original ID card, friend's ID card and power of attorney to me for replacement.

3. If real-name registration system does not pass the mobile card, if you remember the service password, you only need to bring your ID card, service password and three call records, and the call records must be replaced within three months five days before; If you forget the service password, you must bring your ID card and three call records. Generally, the phone records must be within three months five days ago and the last recharge record before the card can be replenished.

4. If you apply for a valid certificate, you must bring the owner's valid certificate to the business hall and stamp it. In some places, you can change your card for free after surfing the Internet for one year.
