No. Reddit thinks my patched version is a completely separate app. Reddit still allows third party apps to use their API for free as long as the usage is low. The limit is way too low for all the big third party apps but more than enough for just one person. Follow the guide to “create” your own app.

You can keep using RiF if you patch it with ReVanced. I used this method for another third party app.

I worked in one of the biggest telecom companies in Europe. This is most likely an order made through customer service. The telecom companies have known about this problem for a long time. They are trying balance security and ease of use for the customer.

If company A implements noticeably stricter requirements for identification to order stuff, the average customer gets annoyed and switches to company B.

Therefore the companies watch each other closely and implement stricter requirements slowly at about the same rate as their competitors.

Protip: You can contact customer service of most telecom companies and ask them to write down a password that you need to tell them before you can order a SIM or other stuff.
