Recently, @xiaxiaoyan, who is certified as a writer on Weibo, posted that when handling the transfer of a beautiful account, she was asked by China Mobile to pre-deposit 10,000 yuan in phone bills and to guarantee monthly consumption of 400 yuan. She questioned whether this requirement was an overlord clause.

She said in the post that her mobile phone number was a serial number she had used with her ex-husband. She used her ex-husband's ID card to apply for it. It had been used for more than 20 years. It was tied to various bank cards and Alipay, and she had been using it herself. When I went to the China Mobile business hall to handle the transfer, the staff said that this mobile phone number was a good one, and I needed to deposit 10,000 yuan in phone bills immediately for the transfer, and a minimum monthly phone bill of 400 yuan in the future. "I was so angry that I laughed. I said, isn't this your overbearing clause? This is not a new number. It is a transfer of a mobile phone number that has been used for more than 20 years, and it is still transferred to the name of the actual user. I didn't mention this when I applied for it. Now I suddenly propose this clause and pre-deposit 10,000 phone calls. Why?"
The staff claimed that this was the charging standard set internally. After she expressed that she wanted to complain, the staff also said that the package could be reduced to 58 yuan a month, and the prepaid phone fee could be reduced to 200 yuan. However, this plan still needs to be submitted to the leadership for approval. If it is approved, it can be transferred.
Sina Technology sent a private message to the blogger to learn about the specific situation, but he had not responded as of press time. Regarding the specific rules for the transfer of a good number, China Mobile customer service said that after the good number is transferred, the new account will be implemented according to the new network number. The number level will be based on the "standard level" of the number. The "Lucky Number" contract plan will be applied, the deposit will be paid, and the Lucky Number Agreement will be signed. Regarding the specific pre-deposit standards, customer service said that it depends on the specific number selected. If the number contains AAAA/ABCDE/ABABAB, etc., the pre-deposit may reach tens of thousands of yuan. If the user feels that the pre-deposit is too high, they can choose another number.
