Unable to sign-up for Telekom Prepaid connection online with Indian Passport

vor 19 Tagen

I tried signing up for Telekom Prepaid L plan. I wish to bring my number from another operator Fraenk at the end of the contract period there.

I see that I am unable to register the request online or via Telekom app due to an error in the form. At the "Contact Info" step, I select Passport for Document Type and India for Nationality and specify my passport number in the Document ID field.

My Indian passport number is only 8-digits but the form expects me to enter a 9 to 11 digit number. The field turns red and the form cannot be submitted.

I wish to know if online sign-up is possible or if I should visit a store? Any help/advise is greatly appreciated.

      that problematic type of form validation ist always known.

      years before this one was working: enter one or more spaces after the leading real number instead of the end "12345678 " ->  „1  2345678“ .

      but i dont know the current situation.

      is online verification possible?

      Thanks for your response. I tried spaces in the document ID but unfortunately it is not accepted, at the start or end or in between. I will better visit a store nearby and ask them to help me with it.

      Then look for a "T-Punkt" shop and not for a partner shop.

      If the remaining time of your contract is not long, I suggest to transfer your phone number by setiing an Opt-in at Freank to initialize an immediate transfer.

      Hello and welcome to the community, @Santosh !

       

      Thank you so much for your post. I can see that you’ve already received a few helpful tips from the community.

      The idea of visiting a shop in person is definitely a good one. I’m sharing a link to our Shop Finder below, where you can find the shop closest to you.  The team there can also carry out the authentication process for you directly.

      Please remember to bring your passport and your registration certificate (Meldebescheinigung) with you.

      I wish you the best of luck and hope you have a lovely and relaxing day!

       

      Kind regards

      Thank you dear Caro. Through the Shop Finder link you provided, I was able to see that there is a store nearby in Esslingen and it even mentioned that they speak English! Visited the store and completed the purchase, they had no trouble apparently with Indian passports as a form of ID.
