     There is no direct relation between a SIM and a 'social media'   
   account.   
      
     The SIM might be - and probably is - part of a 'family' mobile plan,   
   i.e. the minor is not involved in the contract with the mobile provider.   
      
     And the 'social media' account could be used via Wi-Fi or not even on   
   a mobile phone.   
      
     No, The Aussies just have take part in the method described in the   
   Spanish references which Carlos posted! :-)
