Overview
- The Comisión Reguladora de Telecomunicaciones started progressive suspensions for unlinked lines with terminal digit 1, a process that the agency says can occur within 72 hours of the action that began on Tuesday.
- Users whose service is suspended can have it restored immediately by completing the linkage with their mobile operator using a valid official ID that shows their CURP.
- Registration can be done online through operator portals or the CRT site registratulinea.crt.gob.mx and these pages do not consume mobile data, so people can apply even with a suspended line.
- The CRT says the procedure does not store biometric data and has opened support channels at dudasvinculacion@crt.gob.mx and the 24-hour citizen line 079 for technical help.
- The rule covers prepaid, postpaid, rental, corporate contracts, eSIMs and SIMs bought before January 2026, suspended numbers have a 90-day window to reactivate before permanent cancellation, and the next cutoff is September 15 for lines ending in 2 with further dates through December.
