As reported by Inquirer.net, the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) announced that it would review proposals to improve the SIM Registration Act, including a requirement for SIM card owners to be physically present during registration. The online registration system has faced criticism for being exploited by fraudsters who sell preregistered SIM cards to facilitate scams. The NTC has already directed telecom companies to improve their registration processes and better validate SIM cards. In addition, the commission has proposed new rules to regulate SIM ownership and limit the number of valid government-issued IDs used for registration. With the deadline of the SIM Registration yesterday, Globe SIM cards have already been deactivated. If you still missed the SIM registration deadline, you have a final grace period to comply with the law. Globe, TM, and Globe At Home Prepaid WiFi users who missed the July 25 deadline for SIM registration will already feel the impact of non-compliance, with their outgoing services and incoming calls deactivated. But, as stipulated in the implementing rules and regulations of the SIM Registration Act, they still have five days- from July 26 to 30– to catch up and save their SIM from permanent deactivation.
