Smart *767 SOS Lends Php4 Emergency Load

This is probably the most useful (and daring) prepaid SMS promo I’ve seen in ages (saw the ad on PhilStar today). Smart SOS allows you to have a 4-peso emergency load when you run out of one.

All you need to do is dial *767 (SOS) on your Smart phone and you get 3 free SMS and 1-peso call load for a total of Php4 credit.

This amount will be deducted by Smart on your next auto-load. This will come very useful when you don’t have any load and you don’t have any means to top up your account.

It’s a bit of risky move for Smart especially for people who often switch prepaid SIM cards (those who use the free load of a new SIM and just throw it away afterwards) but I don’t think it’s such a huge risk from the end of the telco compared to the value-added service it offers. This is just a promo though and will last until November 16.

    for me di din ok yan loan a load ng smart eh… kz, in the first place dapat yun mga promo nila sa call, automatic na pde mong gamitin, pag nagpaload ka, ex. smarttxt60.. No need to top-up a 1 peso para magamit mo, at direct dialling na sana, dadaan pa sa *6402, compare sa globe and sun automatic dial na.

    Sana ang gawin din ng smart sa mga eload retailer, na no need to have 1peso load para makapag eload ka sa customer, khit sarili kong number di ko maloadan dahil la me load… di katulad sa globe and sun 0 balance ka nakakapagload ka pa din… Kylan kaya gaganda service ng smart… dami na tuloy lumilipat sa globe and sun…

    New promo from Smart, but still a cheap promo. What is 4 credits or 4 pesos compared to all those vanishing loads from prepaid subscribers. I was a Smart prepaid user but switched to Globe and Sun.

    Tama ka sir, dapat pedeng magload sa SmartMoney kapag 0 balance na. Hindi rin kasi smart yung SmartLoad ng Smartkuno…ang boploks

    sana nga permanent na tong *SOS or dapat pede nang magload sa SmartMoney kahit 0 balance.

    I think this is a must -move if you may.

    Pag naubusan kasi ako ng prepaid load, isnt it really ridiculous na hindi ka pwede magload from my Smart Money if you don’t have a minimum balance of 1 peso??? Stupid really!

    But I think this should fix it now. Sana permanent na to…
