PTCL has been running a huge battle to urge its clients to confirm their gadgets before they get blocked.

Necessities
Biometric confirmation requires a gadget's MDN and the proprietor's unique CNIC.
Clients, who are ignorant of their gadget's MDN can essentially message their ESN (Electronic Serial Number – a 8 digit alpha-numeric code present on gadgets) to 0512181218. The MDN will be sent to the client by means of SMS. An example message will seem as though this: ESN<space>DD726911.
CharJi supporters can get their MDN by sending their ICCID (20 digit number composed on the back of all CharJi gadgets) rather than an ESN. They likewise have the alternative of utilizing their ICCID rather than a MDN to check their gadget.
