Recently, some media reported that China No.1 nickname 18888888 was auctioned at a price of 65438+200 million yuan. Subsequently, Beijing Mobile 10086 hotline official micro released a rumor that there was no such thing. So, how to deal with this mobile phone nickname similar to N 8 or N 9?
Beijing Mobile said that it has been strictly implementing the Measures for the Management of Telecommunication Network Code Resources. The "Measures" stipulate that operators are prohibited from "charging users a number selection fee" and "restricting telecom users from using their designated services in any way". According to the reporter's understanding, operators must abide by this method in number sales. In other words, according to the regulations, operators can't get extra profits from the sales of good names.
However, in actual sales, some operators have adopted ingenious ways to bypass supervision and let themselves share in the sales of the nickname, that is, the guaranteed consumption of the nickname. At the same time, some third parties are also selling beautiful numbers, and some numbers have been fired to 240 thousand or even higher. There is also a link in Liang Hao's industrial chain to sell scanning code software.
In this regard, some experts believe that they all have the same number and enjoy the same service. Why do some numbers have minimum spending restrictions? This violates the principle of fair trade.
The beautiful number change package sets a lifelong threshold.
Mr. Liang, a user of Ningxia Unicom, was very depressed when the mobile phone contract expired to change the package, but the operator told him that his number was limited by "lifetime guaranteed consumption".
Recently, Liang of Ningxia told the Beijing News reporter that the nickname he used for Unicom had the overlord clause. According to reports, the mobile phone number of Ningxia Unicom it uses is 888. The contract period of this number is three years, and it needs to consume a package of 286 yuan per month.
Liang received a short message from China Unicom on 20 1715 October, informing him that the package was about to expire and could be changed at will. Liang went to Unicom's business hall to change the package, but was told that his number had a lifetime guaranteed consumption limit and he had to pay a minimum of 286 yuan a month.
After many unsuccessful negotiations, Liang took China Unicom to court, and the main request of the lawsuit was to ask the court to confirm that the consumption clause of Unicom's nickname lifetime guarantee was invalid. In March this year, the court dismissed the lawsuit on the grounds that the appeal was a public interest lawsuit. Liang refused to accept and appealed to.
Another nickname user of Ningxia Mobile told reporters that he also encountered the same problem. When he went to change the mobile phone package, he was told by the staff that he could only change the package that was more expensive than the existing package. "Unless you don't use the package, you must have at least 200 yuan every month."
A telecom user named "Phoebe Ordinary 7578" in Weibo said, "It was originally agreed to change the package at will after three years. Now many years have passed, and it is said that nicknames cannot be changed, but can only be increased rather than decreased. If you can't hit 100 in a month, you will pay more than 300 in a month. "
On April 27th, the reporter contacted the three major operators of China Unicom Mobile Telecom. China Unicom said that taking Ningxia Liang as an example, it depends on whether there is a "lifetime" contract in the agreement signed when purchasing the number, and if there is, it is a lifetime. Both China Mobile and China Telecom responded that they didn't understand the guaranteed consumption of No.1..
"The better the number, the higher the phone bill."
The Beijing News reporter noted that in the Measures for the Management of Telecommunication Network Code Number Resources, telecommunication service operators are prohibited from "charging users for number selection fees" and "restricting telecommunication users from using their designated services in any way". The three major operators have expressed their views to combat the increase in nicknames and realize charges.
The reporter asked the customer service staff of the three major operators whether the nickname has lifetime guarantee consumption and whether the package can be changed at will after the contract expires. The answer is the same. You can change the set meal at will after the contract period.
However, Fu Liang, a telecom expert, told reporters, "If it is a particularly good number, this is the case." Fu Liang believes that because the "Telecommunications Regulations" stipulate that numbers cannot be bought or sold, operators have "edged the ball".
"Operators often set different requirements for different numbers, such as minimum consumption, prepaid phone bills, etc., forming different thresholds for users to choose." Fu Liang said.
The reporter's investigation found that in addition to the guaranteed consumption of nicknames, operators will also require users to pre-store more phone bills to get nicknames.
Beijing News reporters called Beijing Mobile, Beijing Unicom and Beijing Telecom respectively. All three telephone customers said that nicknames need to be paid in advance, and the package can be changed at will after the call refund period. Beijing Telecom customer service said that the better the number, the higher the prepaid phone bill, for example, the tail number is 666 or 888.
"This practice of operators is considered illegal by the industrial and commercial departments and the Consumers Association. Because they are all the same numbers, but they are composed of different numbers, they enjoy the same service. Why do some numbers have minimum spending restrictions? This violates the principle of fair trade. " Fu Liang said.
Third-party channels have a nickname selling 240 thousand.
On April 25th, the reporter came to a mobile business hall in Yuetan, Beijing, and said that he wanted to buy a beautiful number. A staff member of the business hall helped the reporter find the beautiful number 3A on the computer (there are three identical numbers at the end). There are not many search results, only 10 numbers with tail numbers of 000, 666 and 888, and the price ranges from 20,000 to 45,000.
In addition to the operator's link, the reporter found that there are many websites on the Internet that mainly operate nicknames. Taobao shops and post bars also have a lot of information about selling nicknames, among which the price of selling nicknames is tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands.
The reporter logged into Haohao.com and found that the website can purchase the numbers of three major operators, covering 19 provinces and municipalities directly under the central government. The most expensive number in Beijing is Beijing Mobile, and the card fee of1391kloc-0/93333 is priced at 630,000. Another number with a card fee of 240,000 yuan,13717718888, shows that it has been sold.
In the "search number network" and "discount express" areas, there is a "mobile phone nickname valuation? After reading it, you will probably have similar articles. This one, the first three digits of the mobile phone number, will be more expensive if the number segment is older. The second is to look at the tail number, which plays a decisive role in evaluation. The more connected or overlapping endings, the higher the value. For example, the prices of 6666,8888,1234,6789 are all relatively high. Finally, it depends on the attribution of the mobile phone number and the tariff of the mobile phone number. Belonging to economically developed areas, the probability of selling at a high price is high, so the collection value is relatively high.
The customer service of a Taobao shop named "Zhongke Han Wei Communication Franchise Store" told reporters that they are the first-class agents of China Unicom. After selecting the number, you need to upload photos of the front and back of your ID card and hold your ID card. You can also choose its store to handle the real-name registration system on the spot.
There is a lack of supervision over the sale of good names, forming a gray area.
"Mobile phone nicknames can be transferred, especially in the past, it was not a real-name registration system, which gave the traffickers space." Ma Jihua, a telecom expert, told the Beijing News reporter.
According to media reports, people who made cell phone nicknames around 2000 were worth over 100 million yuan. In recent years, with the strict supervision of operators and the restriction of real-name registration system, the profit space of mobile phone nicknames has been compressed, and the annual profit of some ordinary mobile phone nicknames is only hundreds of thousands.
How did the phone nickname of scalper come from? Zhao Kang, a communication expert, told reporters, "The first thing is that operators allocate numbers. The marketing department of each city branch has a number pool, which distributes the numbers to individual customers and distributors. Operators leave some nicknames and choose high-end packages with nicknames, and channel providers may sell them at high prices. High-priced nicknames are made by channel providers. "
Huang Wei (pseudonym) has been engaged in nickname industry for one year. He told reporters that the income is not bad, and he can earn thousands of dollars every month. He said that it is not credible to say that there are hundreds of millions of scalpers. He also told reporters that he didn't have time to collect nicknames, and he had to make moves when he saw the right one.
The reporter found on Baidu Post Bar that someone was selling the software of scanning number, and the price was 30 yuan. After payment, it can be installed and used on Android phones. In the screenshot provided by the other party, Tencent Wangka and Ant Bao Xiao can be selected. "We only scan the numbers jointly organized by operators and Internet companies." The source also said that scalpers with nicknames got nicknames through this software. He has been selling cards and software in the post bar for more than a year, and all of them have zero bad reviews.
The customer service of a Taobao shop told reporters that 3A needs to be kept, and it has been kept for two years according to the requirements of 200 yuan.
Huang Wei said that the number can be rented out. Beautiful numbers 4A and 5A are easy to rent out, and the cards are still in their own names. Renters only need to pay the package fee.
Ma Jihua, a communication expert, believes that supervision and punishment should be strengthened. "If the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology finds out which operator's number sells at a high price, it will stop dialing the number resources, followed by industry and commerce, and the tax department can also be punished if it finds relevant information."
Zhao Kang said, "Any market has its demand, and there is no need to suppress it. There is no regulatory problem. If you buy it, someone will sell it, just like the license plate number. "
Fu Liang believes that the existence of high-priced mobile phone nicknames disrupts the market order, which is caused by the rule that numbers cannot be bought and sold publicly. "The competent department stipulates that buying and selling are not allowed, and the demand exists again. In this way, buying and selling has become a gray way. Private buying and selling are open, nicknamed rent-seeking for benefits, and nicknamed minimum consumption requires a down payment. "
