How to Register Globe and TM Sim Card Philippines

SIM Card Registration

The National Telecommunications Commission reported Thursday that more than 3 million SIM cards had been registered with the major telcos, as mandated under the Sim Card Registration Act.

NTC Deputy Commissioner Attorney John Paulo Salvahan claimed during the Laging Handa briefing that 3,319 million SIM cards had been registered as of December 28.

DITO Telecommunity Corp. received 530,424; Smart Communications received 1,019,207; and Globe Telecoms received 1,769,374.

According to Salvahan, the telcos had a huge number of consumers wanting to register their SIM cards, which hindered traffic or led Globe to shut down the service temporarily.

The DICT earlier announced that carriers have two weeks to implement adjustments to enable SIM card registration.

As of this writing, the registration portal for all telcos mentioned are now back up, and may be accessed for registration purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions:

1. How long do SIM users have to register their SIMs?

All broadband and mobile phone subscribers are required to register their SIMs by April 26, 2023. The DICT has the option of extending the registration period by up to 120 days.

2. How do I register more than one SIM?

Although you may register multiple SIMs in one go, you must first change the name of each one under your own account to ensure that they are all registered. To do so, go to the Globe’s online registration portal.

3. What’s the SIM registration process for children below legal age and don’t have a government ID?

SIM cards for minors should be registered using the name of their legal or parental guardian.

4. I don’t have internet access. How will I register?

In February 2023, we’ll be setting up assistance websites that will allow you to register for SIM cards if you don’t have an internet connection or are using a feature phone. You should visit Globe Telecom’s website so that they can help you.

5. What happens if I fail to register my SIM before the deadline?

Your SIM will be deactivated if you fail to register it before the deadline. You’ll no longer be able to send and receive calls, data, and text messages.

6. I’m on a postpaid plan with Globe. Do I also need to register?

Existing Globe Postpaid, Business Postpaid, and Globe Platinum customers can opt-in to the platform and provide them with their data and information. Globe Telecom will then contact you to confirm and provide you with the necessary details.

7. What are the benefits of registering my SIM card?

There is no denying that Sim Card Registration has numerous benefits. First and foremost, it will aid the government in combating terrorism, criminality, and other illegal acts.

Law enforcement can easily discover criminals and prevent them from committing more offenses if they have access to your personal information. This is especially important in countries like ours, where mobile phone users regularly use prepaid SIM cards without registering their information with service providers or telecom companies. Here are the remaining key benefits:

Telcos and direct SIM card merchants will only sell cards to those who present a valid photo ID, proving that the SIM card belongs to the customer.

Any information registered to subscribers must be kept private unless the subscriber receives written authorization.

The names of a parent or guardian will be mentioned as consenting parties on the registration documentation for youngsters registering their SIM cards.

Telecommunications service providers will be required to give quarterly updates to their lists of recognized dealers, according to the National Telecommunications Commission.

Final Thoughts:

So there you have it! With the new SIM Card Registration Act, Filipinos can have their data protected and be assured that their privacy is respected. This new law will also help track lost or stolen phones and prevent the illegal use of SIM cards by unauthorized persons.
