The April 26, 2023 deadline for SIM Card Registration is fast approaching.
The SIM Registration Law or Republic Act 11934 mandates all customers of SIM-based services, both new and existing, to register their SIM cards with their current telco provider.
BillEase is one with the National Telecommunications Commission and the Philippine government’s efforts to strengthen protection against the growing spam and scam messages.
To avoid the rush of last-minute registrants and continue accessing your BillEase-linked SIM card, register your SIM today.
