“We are committed to ensuring that every customer can access SIM registration support whether they prefer to do it online or offline. We’re working hand-in-hand with the government to provide on-ground assistance in areas where our customers need us most,” said Cleo Santos, Head of Globe’s Channel Management Group.

When visiting the booths, customers are encouraged to be ready with the necessary information such as:

• Full name
• Date of birth
• Sex
• Address
• Government ID with photo
• Mobile number

Globe earlier supported the first two rounds of government-led SIM registration and has started rolling out its own SIM registration desks. Its online SIM registration platform, https://new.globe.com.ph/simreg, is available 24/7 to provide greater convenience and exclusive offers. It is also set to soon open the GlobeOne app for SIM registration.

POSTPAID CUSTOMERS

Starting Feb. 9, 2023, Globe Postpaid customers may start confirming registration of their SIMs in just one easy step.

To complete the SIM registration of its Postpaid customers, Globe today starts sending out an SMS asking them to confirm their details by simply texting SIMREG to 8080.

By sending the SMS, individual Globe Postpaid and Platinum customers confirm to Globe the full name, date of birth, sex, address and proof of identification that they already submitted to Globe during postpaid application.

This step serves as the customers’ expressed confirmation for Globe to use their current details for SIM registration, in compliance with the law.

“We have made it very easy for our valued Postpaid customers to complete their SIM Registration. With just one text, they will be compliant with the SIM Registration law. With this step, we hope to reach more of our customers and get them to register,” said Darius Delgado, Head of Globe’s Consumer Mobile Business.

For prepaid customers, registration remains open 24/7 in Globe’s SIM registration website, https://new.globe.com.ph/simreg.

Globe has also started rolling out assisted registration sites across the country to extend help to senior citizens, persons with disabilities, pregnant women, users of basic or feature phones and anyone who needs support to get their SIMs registered.

Globe again calls on all its customers to register their SIMS before the April 26, 2023 deadline to avoid SIM deactivation. There are an estimated 86.7 million SIM users in the Globe network.

As of February 7, Globe has logged over 12 million registered prepaid SIMs.
