It's required for getting postpaid cellular plan. It's also required to do banking so credit/debit card you give them, they likely can use that to backtrack.

- reaperducer 2y agoIt's required for getting postpaid cellular plan. Nope. I got a new cellular device on a national carrier last year without giving up my SSN.
- stackskipton 2y agoPlan, not device. If you have a plan, they have your SSN already and ran soft credit check likely when you bought your device.
- reaperducer 2y agoIt was a new plan, too. This is my first device with this carrier.
- ElevenLathe 2y agoBiggest one is probably health insurance. I'd be surprised if you can get any (private, employer-sponsored, ACA exchange, Medicaid, Medicare) health insurance plan without an SSN. Medicare at least makes sense since it is administered by the Social Security Administration.
