To subscribe to one of Cytamobile-Vodafone’s mobile phone plans, you need to visit a Cytashop or one of the stores on Cyta’s sales network and show your Cypriot Identity Card (nationality: Cypriot) or your driving licence or your election booklet. In the case of a company, its legally authorised representative should present his/her driving licence or Identity Card together with the Certificate of Company Registration and the Certificate of Directors and Secretary.
Foreign nationals wishing to subscribe to one of Cytamobile-Vodafone’s mobile phone plans should present their passport or a Cypriot Identity Card. Citizens of EU member states may show their national Identity Card.
You can settle your bill in one of the following six ways:

- At any store on the Cyta sales network
- At any bank
- Online (www.cyta.com.cy)
- By Standing Order
- At various points (e.g. kiosks) with EasyPay
If you lose your phone or it is stolen, you should inform us at once on 132 so that we temporarily deactivate your SIM card and thus protect you from being charged for calls that you haven’t made. Your monthly plan will not be terminated unless you ask for this. If you eventually find your phone, you can call us on 132 and we shall reactivate your SIM card. If you don’t find it, you can visit any Cytashop to obtain a new SIM card and reconnect your old number with it, rendering your original one inactive. If your phone is stolen, you need to report the theft to the police as soon as possible, stating the IMEI number if you have noted it, and to make sure that you receive written confirmation of the reported theft. Present the confirmation to the nearest Cytashop. Your IMEI number will at once be placed on a blacklist and recognised as soon as anyone uses your phone.
If your mobile phone is stolen while you are abroad, you should immediately call +357 22 880 100 (the international number for telephone assistance) and report the theft. For 24-hour assistance, call +357 22 880 300.
When you purchase a SIM card there are PIN and PUK code numbers on the packaging. If you lose them you need to call 132 to be given a new PUK and then you can set a new PIN. The PUK will only be given to the owner of the SIM card.
You can withhold your number selectively by dialling #31# before the number you wish to call. If you want to withhold your number permanently through your mobile phone, you should consult the user manual or call 132 to do this through the network.
Check to see if payment was made just before or even after your last bill was printed. If so, it was simply too late to be included. In such a case you can call 132 and find out the precise amount that is outstanding. To be certain that your bill is always paid on time, you should set up a Standing Order with your bank.
You can register a change of address at any Cytashop or at any store on the Cyta sales network, by calling 132 or by going online, provided that you do not receive an itemised bill for your number. A change of address can be submitted in writing, giving your full name, your mobile phone number, your Identity Card number and, of course, your new billing address.
You can activate MCN by texting On MCN to 8000 free of charge (in Cyprus).

When you can’t make a call, the most likely reason is that outgoing call barring has been activated on your phone, either through the menu or due to an unpaid bill. If neither of these applies, you should call 132 so that a more detailed check can be carried out on your connection.

Every SIM card is internationally identified by a unique number, the ICCID (integrated circuit card identifier) which is stored on the SIM card and printed on the actual card during manufacture. This identifying number is also printed in the letter containing passwords that is printed with every new connection or change of SIM card.
