Major telecommunications firms urged Filipinos to immediately register their SIM card starting today (Tuesday) instead of waiting until the last minute to do so during the 180-day registration deadline. READ:
According to the National Telecommunications Commission , telco firms have expressed their readiness for the full implementation of the SIM Registration act even as they expect “birth pains” in the initial days.
“Based on our estimate, it is actually technically possible to finish registration of all 87 million Globe subscribers in less than 15 days, provided that all these subscribers really register on time and very early, and not wait for the last day of registration,” Globe Telecom Inc. corporate and legal services group head Ariel Tubayan said, citing results of their simulations.Tubayan said users will be able to complete the process in a little less than 5 minutes.
“On the side of DITO, the big challenge is how to encourage the public to register because this is something new and it seems that by nature, there is a bit of hesitancy to register,” he said. Mobile phone users have 180 days to register their SIM or face getting deactivated from their respective service providers.Another co-author of the law, Sen. Sherwin Gatchalian, said early SIM registration would enable authorities to track criminal-minded individuals who take advantage of unsuspecting customers.
The process of registration requires the following information: full name, date of birth, gender, address, and valid government ID or similar documents with a photo for personal users.
