Senior citizen registers 20-year-old SIM at Globe's SIM registration assistance desk in Bacolod

When Erlinda Caring chanced upon a Globe SIM Registration Assistance Desk on her recent trip to a mall in Bacolod City, the 68-year-old took the opportunity to get her SIM registered. She didn’t want to cram close to the deadline or risk losing her TM SIM, which she has been using for some 20 years.

"My children were busy, and I saw SIM registration in my area, so I grabbed the opportunity to register my SIM Card,” Caring, a basic phone user, told Globe brand ambassadors who manned the assistance desk on January 27, the day of her visit.

Caring, of Barangay Alijis, Bacolod City, was ready with two valid IDs and her SIM, and gamely posed for a photo to complete her registration.  It took her all of 5 minutes.

A loyal TM user, Caring shared that she has never changed her SIM as it has been convenient to use. “TM load is affordable and has a fast signal, too,” she said.
