The Mystery Mobile Phone Number allocated
3 Answers
I resurrected an old mobile phone with larger buttons (old age problem).
I put in a new Orange PAYG SIM Card from a sealed package.
I went on the Orange Site with the phone switched on but before I could enter anything I got a text message on the mobile saying "Retain existing number YES/NO".
I selected Yes and a number was displayed..
I entered this to register and the IMEI number.
What I cant understand is that I have only had two new mobiles and absolutely certain I have never had that number ?
How can that happen ? It cant surely ?
