Digital solutions company Globe Telecoms on Tuesday started offering incentives in hopes of enticing subscribers to register their SIMs with only a week left before the April 26 deadline.
Through the 2X Rewards Campaign, prepaid subscribers with P90 and above promo/load transactions and TM customers with P50 and above transactions will get twice the rewards when registering via the GlobeOne app. All customers who registered earlier are eligible for the promo.
Globe Rewards is the telco’s way of granting special treats to subscribers for their loyal use of Globe or TM products and services.
The 2X Rewards promo encourage new and existing Globe and TM prepaid subscribers to comply with Republic Act No. 11934 or the SIM Registration Act, which aims to curb fraud and other forms of cybercrime by establishing a registry of SIM users.
“We urge our subscribers to take advantage of the 2X Rewards promo and register their SIMs before the April 26 deadline to avoid inconvenience,” said Jerome Patalud, head of Globe Rewards.
“We recognize the significance of the SIM Registration Act in preventing scams and other forms of criminal online activity, and we are committed to helping our customers comply. Let’s work together to make our online community safer and more secure,” he added.
Globe continues to ramp up efforts to register its subscribers nationwide. It provides SIM registration assistance in Globe Stores and EasyHubs nationwide. It also deploys booths in remote areas to help those having a hard time registering their SIMs, especially seniors, PWDs, pregnant women, those with no internet access or are using basic phones.
It has also partnered with local government units (LGUs), groceries, and malls in putting up assisted registration booths in more than 100 sites nationwide.
Globe has logged over 31 million SIM registrations of its 86.7 million subscriber base as of 17 April this year.
