Just wondering if everybody has registered their cell phones (if you have pre-paid) by this weekend?

Has anybody had any problems?

Service cut-offs?

Thanks!

I registered mine over the internet on the website that appeared in my TELCEL message. I went through all the moves and I believe it registered but as I punched in the last line on the last page, the screen went beserk. So I assume I am registered, but am not positive.
Today, I called my own number to see what would happen and the call went through.
So unless the numbers don`t become automatically defunct after 10/3/2010 I am properly registered.
What`s with you?

Better try it, again.

If you are successfully registered, you get a text message to that effect.

Did you use a CURP? I did, and got the message back, instantly, after registering online.

Haven't registered yet and have had no problems...I've been getting all kinds of text messages for months now asking me to register by sending a text message back to numbers like 555, or 3636. I suspected most were scams to make a few pesos on each message they get back.

I registered. No problems.

I registered but I kept getting a voice message from Telcel everytime I made a call that I needed to register. But they finally stopped. Guess everything is OK as I still have service.

Thanks for all the responses!
