Lost access to account

[yvandas]

My friend lost access to his account.  His login information has not changed but the system ask to verify that this is him and he cannot complete the required steps.  All he wants to do is change his credit card information so that he will regain access to his public mobile services.  Can he be granted access to his account without this extra step?  Thanks in advance for your help with this.

To explain what the above mentioned vouchers can do, or also using real time payments in some stores, is that it reactivates the account. Then the SMS option can be used to login and change the credit card.

This is assuming the account is suspended.

Unfortunately there are no way of accessing your account without all the credentials.

He will need to answer all the security questions and his PIN. This is the only prevention of SIM Swapping.

The only other option is to purchase vouchers and dial 611 at these locations:
