WhatsApp rules will change from March 1, if there is no SIM in the phone, then the account may be closed

WhatsApp SIM Binding Rule: crores of the country WhatsApp users A big alert has been issued for. “SIM binding” The rules are going to be implemented. This simply means that now WhatsApp will run only on that number whose SIM is present in your mobile phone. If you do not take necessary steps in time, there may be problems in chats, media and account access.

What are SIM Binding rules?

The purpose of SIM binding is to prevent fake accounts and online fraud. Under the new rule, apps like Telegram and Signal will also work properly only when the SIM of the concerned number is active in the same phone. Till now many people used to keep SIM in one phone and use WhatsApp on the other phone. But it will not be possible to do this after March 1. Therefore every user should correct their settings now.

Decide your primary number today itself

The most important thing is to decide from which number you want to use WhatsApp further. Many people operate an account from a number whose SIM they do not have or that number has been switched off. If that SIM is not in your phone after SIM binding is implemented, WhatsApp may stop working. Therefore, choose the number whose SIM is always with you and in your phone.

It is also important to keep the SIM active

It is not enough to just insert the SIM in the phone, it is equally important for it to remain active. If you have not recharged for a long time, then recharge with a valid plan immediately. After the implementation of the rules, the system may match the SIM and WhatsApp account from time to time. If the SIM is found inactive then there may be problem in account access. Not only this, if the locked SIM is issued to someone else, account recovery can be difficult.
