 |  E-Plus was the last operator to introduce 13-digit numbers, T-Mobile and D2 already used them since 2001, O2 has had them since 2003. 
However you can still get a 12-digit number, especially when you sign up for a contract you'll probably get one and even with most prepaid cards there's a chance of getting one. |
