Check every IMEI before payment
Check every IMEI before payment; it is the direct way to catch an unregistered or mismatched handset identity. A multi-SIM phone can expose more than one IMEI, so test each number through BTRC's NEIR service and keep an invoice that identifies the device.
- Dial *#06# on the phone and note the IMEI for every SIM slot.
- Check each number separately through BTRC NEIR before paying.
- Match the box and handset, then retain an invoice with the IMEI or serial number.
