Wondering if your smartphone’s SIM is LTE-ready?
For customers of PLDT wireless subsidiary Smart Communications, Inc. (Smart), the answer is simply a text away with the launch of its new LTE SIM check program via SMS.
To check if their SIMs are already on LTE, Smart prepaid and postpaid subscribers can text SIMCHECK to 5832 for free. Customers that are not yet on LTE SIMs are then urged to go to the nearest Smart Stores to upgrade their SIMs for free and also retain their number.
“To really benefit from the LTE network that we are now rolling out, our customers must have an LTE-capable smart phone with an LTE SIM," said Mario G. Tamayo, PLDT and Smart Senior Vice President for Network Planning and Engineering.
