Hi I bought a SIM card in a small shop. He took a photo of my ID. I discovered the SIM is not in my name so I don't think he registered my ID. Is it a requirement to take a photo of ID? I thought he was registration it. Stupid really but I was too impatient to get a SIM.

Why not go back to the "little shop" and enquire?

I think last time my OH bought a Labara sim she had to show her passport and the sim was registered to her.

Hi Steve thanks. The aim is not in my name that's my worry.

Hi Ray as I thought they played dumb when I said it wasn't registered in my name and asked why they took my ID. No worries I know a few police back home and hopefully If it's used I'll know where to go.
