Key points for number preservation:

The balance of the phone bill needs to be changed every 180 days, otherwise the number will be recycled. In China, the lowest cost is to send a text message, which can be sent to domestic and foreign mobile phone numbers. Each message costs 0.3 pounds, so the annual consumption is 0.6 pounds, which is just less than 6 yuan. Every time the balance of the phone bill changes, such as recharge, consumption, and number preservation period, the calculation starts again. A very safe British mobile phone customer service hotline, +44 797 300 0186, the sending format is 0044 7973000186, which will definitely be sent successfully.

Registration points:

You need to have a node in the United States. The purity of the node should be lower than 10%. The requirements for the node are relatively high. I recommend your own node. The one at the airport may not work. You can only successfully register one node in a short period of time. If the current node has been registered, you need to change to a new node. It is too simple for self-built nodes. You can only successfully register one node in a short period of time with the same device. The same device can be successfully registered again after a month. If you want to register multiple phone numbers in a short period of time, it is recommended to register with different devices. As long as the registration is successful, you can change the node at will.

Key points for number preservation:

As long as you use it once a month, no points will be deducted. If you don’t use it for a month, 20 points will be deducted. After 60 points are deducted, the phone number will be reclaimed!

⚠️Notes:

• When applying for a card, do not use a VPN, just apply directly through the domestic network, because some people will encounter "Cannot select China as the country and cannot fill in the Chinese postal code" when applying through a VPN
• If you have not received the card, you need to go to the China Post offline outlets in your area about 20 to 30 days after applying to ask if they have your international surface mail and ask them to manually search for it for you.
