The apparatus can include an identity module for storing user information in the mobile communication device. The identity module can include an identity module frame, a secure storage memory coupled to the frame, the secure storage memory including a mobile communication device subscriber identity and the user information, and an identity module controller coupled to the secure storage memory and the frame, the identity module controller configured to block access to the user information and grant access to the mobile communication device subscriber identity when the identity module enters a blocked mode. The identity module controller may grant access to the mobile communication device subscriber identity in response to a request for a service access communication.
