How long does it take for the mobile phone number to expire without cancellation? Does it affect your use of numbers in the future?

Although the mobile phone numbers of China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom will be cancelled automatically, they will be cancelled due to arrears (because even if your card is not used, the monthly rent will be deducted as usual for the first three months, and the numbers will be cancelled after six months). When you go to the counter for business a few months later, you will find that the account owner of this mobile phone number is not you, but you have a record of arrears.

How serious will the consequences be if the unused mobile phone number is not cancelled?

First, the amount owed has increased.

If you don't cancel your mobile phone card in the real-name registration system in time after stopping using it, you will continue to incur expenses in the first three months, and since you have registered your real name, these expenses will be charged to your account. Next time you need to do business, you must make up all the previous arrears. These expenses could have been avoided.

Second, Alipay and WeChat accounts are not secure.

Many people bind their mobile phone numbers to Alipay and WeChat. If they don't unbind their mobile phone number when they cancel it, the new owner may log in to the original owner's account after obtaining this number.

Third, personal credit will be affected.

Now it is a credit society, and personal credit will become more and more important. If you don't pay back the arrears of real-name registration system mobile phone card, it may also affect your personal credit information system, which will cause a series of inconveniences for you to buy a house and a car by stages in the future, and it will not be worth the candle.

Fourth, handling a new mobile phone number will be affected.

After the mobile phone card real-name registration system, when you apply for a new mobile phone card in the business hall, the salesperson will inquire about your previous mobile phone card processing records. If you find that your previous mobile phone card is in arrears, you will be required to make up the previous arrears immediately before you can handle other business with your ID card, otherwise you will be blacklisted and cannot handle any business of this operator.

Therefore, the cancellation of mobile phone number is a matter of personal interest. The Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security also attaches great importance to reminding the majority of mobile users that when canceling their mobile phone numbers, please first verify whether they owe money, and be sure to cancel all kinds of bound accounts in advance to ensure the safety of personal information.
