'Prepaid load extension to push through on Sunday'

MANILA - Two of the country's top telecommunications firms assured their subscribers that they will be able to use their prepaid mobile phone credits for a longer time starting this Sunday.

Smart Communications Inc. and Digital Telecommunications Philippines Inc. (Sun Cellular) said they will follow the new guideline set by the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) regarding the extended shelf life of prepaid credits.

The new rules, as detailed in memorandum circular 03-07-2009, were set to be implemented by all local mobile phone firms starting July 19. The NTC said it will impose the necessary sanctions on any firm that fails to comply with the new guidelines.

The two companies said the NTC ruling will cover all regular prepaid credits, including their load-sharing services or "pasa load." However, they pointed out that their bucket-priced offerings such as unlimited calls and text promos will not be included in the extension.

Meanwhile, many subscribers are planning to buy prepaid credits on Sunday to enjoy longer load validity. Others, however, think that the NTC's new rules will not solve issues on missing prepaid credit and unsolicited text messages.
