You then have to go to Safaricom CC to get the IMEIs blocked. If you have a Dual SIM phone as I do, and you use different SIM cards from, say SIM1=Safaricom, SIM2=Airtel, despite it being one device, you have to take two steps - Report to Safaricom to block SIM1 and then also report to Airtel to block SIM2.</div><div><br></div><div>I know someone things it makes sense that way, but this is one device! </div><div><br></div><div>If they shared the database, shouldn't any of them should just go ahead and block both IMEIs?? Or that isn't legal? </div><div><br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature">Best regards,<br>Odhiambo WASHINGTON,<br>Nairobi,KE<br>+254733744121/+254722743223<br>"I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler."<br></div>
