DoT Introduces TAF-COP Portal To Check Mobile Connections Issued In Your Name

The DoT has announced the launch of a new portal to help mobile users. The new TAF-COP portal is specially designed to find out all mobile numbers that are active under their id or name. The guidelines allow all mobile users to have nine connections on their name or id. The newly launched portal will help all mobile users to check and take action against their additional mobile connection users. However, telecom operators are also responsible for checking such frauds.

Why Is This Portal Necessary?

This portal comes after several mobile users have faced SIM card frauds. These SIM can be used for illegal purposes and all blame will go on the name whose name is associated with that SIM. A. Robert Ravi, the Deputy Director-General of DoT said that this site helps customers to identify all mobile numbers under their id. He states that all customers can request to block the connection that is not connected with them. He also said that all mobile users are allowed to have nine connections at one time. However, to check the mobile number on the portal users have to follow these steps.

Here Are All Steps To Use The TAF-COP Portal
