registering Cellular phones

Yesterday I made an attempt at the Tel Cel office in Ixtapa to register the Mexican cell phone I have had for close to 10 yrs to comply with the upcoming Federal requirement. I have always paid for the monthly $200 MXN plan so I never had a paper trail of when the account was opened.

I was told that the account was not in my name and tried to other possibilities of persons that might have been with me when I opened the account. I struck out on that and the Telcel employee told me for privacy reasons they could not give me the name of the person to whom my cell number was assigned.

This is going to cause me problems besides just communication as I have two bank accounts linked to it. I would at least like to transfer my contacts if possible to another cellular chip before I lose the number. Being the neanderthal that I am, I am looking for ideas on how I might be able to transfer my contacts?

IMHO this requirement is going to cause a lot of problems in the coming months.
Gracias

Maybe I'm missing something, but the name your phone is registered to should be on the monthly bill. You should also be able to log into your account on Telcel's website.
