– The reported connections are subject to re-verification by the service provider within 60 days. Failure to comply with the re-verification process will result in permanent deactivation of the connection.
– Following deactivation, there is a 90-day cooling-off period before the number can be reassigned to another individual.
As per the guidelines, the deactivation process of a mobile connection reported as “not required” on the portal typically takes around 60 days. Here’s a breakdown of the timeline:
1. Outgoing Services Suspension: Within 30 days of being flagged for re-verification, the outgoing services of the mobile connection are suspended.
2. Incoming Services Suspension: Within 45 days, the incoming services are also suspended.
3. Permanent Disconnection: If the re-verification process conducted by the service provider is not successfully completed, the mobile connection is permanently disconnected within 60 days.
During the re-verification process, the reported connections are flagged by the telecom service provider. This involves cross-checking the identity of the existing subscriber by comparing their photograph and identification proof with the records on file.
Following deactivation, there is a mandatory 90-day cooling-off period before the number can be reassigned to another individual. Therefore, the total duration for the number to be completely available for reallocation is approximately 150 days (60 days for deactivation + 90 days cooling period).
In the event that your mobile number remains active after being reported as “not required” on the portal, please adhere to the following protocol:
1. Allow a period of 60 days to elapse from the date of reporting the number. As per established guidelines, a reported connection typically requires approximately 60 days to be permanently deactivated after being flagged for re-verification by the service provider.
2. Subsequently, revisit your account to ascertain whether the number has been successfully removed from the list of connections associated with your identity. If the deactivation process has been completed effectively, the number will no longer be visible on the list.
3. In the event that the number persists in its active state beyond the 60-day timeframe, you may lodge a formal complaint through the Centralized Public Grievance Redress and Monitoring System (CPGRAMS) portal. Kindly ensure to include the TAFCOP ticket ID and any other pertinent information in your complaint.
Upon receipt of your complaint, the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) will initiate an investigation into the matter and undertake appropriate measures to deactivate the unauthorized connection, provided that it is confirmed to be registered under your name without your explicit knowledge or consent.
Please be aware that there is a 90-day cooling-off period after deactivation before the number can be reassigned to another party. Therefore, even if the number is successfully deactivated, it may still appear as unavailable for a period of time.
Should you have any further inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact the TAFCOP helpline
As per the current TAFCOP guidelines, there is a mandatory 3-month cooling-off period after a mobile number is deactivated before it can be reassigned to a new subscriber. This waiting period is mandated by the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) to prevent the immediate reassignment of deactivated numbers and ensure they are not misused during the transition.
Key points regarding the cooling-off period:
– Once a number is reported as “not required” on TAFCOP and subsequently deactivated by the service provider, a 90-day waiting period commences.
– During this 90-day period, the number remains unassigned and cannot be reactivated or provided to a new subscriber.
– After the 90-day period elapses, the number becomes available for allocation to a new subscriber by the telecom service provider.
In summary, there is a mandatory 3-month waiting period after a mobile number is deactivated before it can be reissued to someone else, ensuring the responsible handling and allocation of deactivated numbers.
