    If you’re using mobile broadband on your Surface, your mobile operator may ask you for the IMEI and SIM ICCID numbers from your SIM card.

    The IMEI is the International Mobile Equipment Identity. It’s a unique number used to identify your Surface. This number can be helpful if your Surface is ever lost or stolen as mobile operators may be able to block it from accessing their network.

    The SIM ICCID is a unique number that identifies your specific SIM card.

    To find these numbers:

    1. Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and tap Settings.

    (If you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer down, and click Settings.) 2. Tap or click Change PC settings. 3. Tap or click Network, tap or click Mobile broadband, and then tap or click your data provider. Information about your mobile broadband connection and SIM card is listed under Properties.

    I asked about why the IMEI in my account was NOT being accepted by the support services that I was sent to...and I was sent to a site that told me how to find my IMEI...so I have no help in getting help.  :(
