The intended exercise to block all unregistered SIM cards effective tomorrow, Saturday, October 1st 2022, has been postponed.
According to new reports, a final decision on the next steps to be taken by the National Communication Authority (NCA) and the Ministry of Communications will be communicated to the public next week.
According to sources, a roadmap for the intended sim card blocking exercise is being drawn up and would be finalised by next week.
Under the new modalities, the punitive measures introduced earlier in September which were later scrapped would be brought back.
According to Graphic Online citing sources close to the decision-makers, subscribers who have done stage one (linked their Ghana Cards to their SIM cards via *404#) will have up to the end of the year to complete stage two of their registration.
Meanwhile, those who have not registered their SIMs at all, will be blocked from receiving calls, making calls, using data services, among other things.
Those blocked will however, be able to access *404# to start their registration, and also be able to receive their Unique codes via SMS.
