What are the PIN and PUK?

PIN (Personal Identity Number) is a 4-8 digit access code which can be used to secure your telephone from use.

PIN2 (Personal Identity Number 2) is a 4-8 digit access code which can be used to access the priority number memory and cost of calls.

The PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) and PUK2 are used to unlock the PIN and PIN 2 codes respectively if your SIM card is blocked.

How do I change my PIN and PUK?
Change SIM Card PIN ** 04 * old PIN * new PIN * new PIN #
Change SIM Card PIN2 ** 042 * old PIN2 * new PIN2 *new PIN2 #
Change SIM Card PUK ** 05 * old PUK * new PUK * new PUK #
Change SIM Card PUK2 ** 052 * old PUK2 * new PUK2 * new PUK2 #

Note: These codes only work on some mobile stations offered by some providers.
