<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><br></div>Can someone please explain to me what happens when Safaricom recycles numbers into the market? By recycling, I mean numbers that have not been in use for some duration end up being put into the market again. Does CCK also de-register the previous owners of these numbers before they are registered to the new owners?<br>
</div>Secondly - I have heard complaints that these recycled numbers are NOT 'cleaned up' - like unsubscribing any PRSPs subscriptions which may have been activated by the previous owners.. Should the new owners be subjected to this pain? <br>
<br></div>CCK, please explain.<br><br><br><div><div><br></div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 11 December 2013 20:18, John Kariuki <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ngethe.kariuki2007@yahoo.co.uk" target="_blank">ngethe.kariuki2007@yahoo.co.uk</a>></span> wrote:<br>
