How to Avoid SIM Registration Errors for Globe/TM
Check Your Signal First
- Ensure you’re in an area with strong network coverage before requesting an OTP. Weak signals delay codes, and OTPs expire in 5 minutes.
Prepare Documents in Advance
- Keep your valid ID (e.g., passport, driver’s license) and personal details (birthdate, address) ready.
- Ensure your ID photo is clear, uncropped, and under 2MB file size. Use free tools like ILovePDF to compress if needed.
Double-Check All Fields
- Fill every mandatory field (marked with *). Avoid typos in your name, mobile number, or ID number.
OTP Troubles
- If the OTP expires or doesn’t arrive, request a new one immediately. Wait for the SMS before proceeding.
Follow Photo Rules
- Selfie/ID photo must match your ID (no filters, same hairstyle). Use natural lighting.
- File formats: JPG, PNG, or PDF only.
Agree to All Terms
- Tick all 3 checkboxes at the end. Skipping these will block your submission.
- Save Your Reference Number
- After submitting, screenshot or note the confirmation number for future issues.
- Wait for SMS Confirmation
- Registration isn’t done until you get a “Success” SMS from Globe. No message? Repeat the process.
- Register SIMs Separately
- Have multiple SIMs? Register one at a time to avoid mixing up details.
