Common Issues When Checking SIM Registration

When checking your SIM registration, several common issues can occur. Here are the issues with their possible solutions.

No registration status appears

This usually happens if the number isn’t recognized by the system or there’s a delay. In such cases, double-check that you entered the correct number, wait for a while, and try again. If the issue continues, contact Globe Telecom support for help.

Not receiving the OTP

This can be caused by a weak network signal or temporary phone glitches. To fix it, move to a place with better signal strength and request a new OTP.

ID or selfie gets rejected

If your ID or selfie gets rejected, it’s often because the photo is blurry or the information doesn’t match your ID details. Make sure to take a clear photo and ensure that all details match exactly before resubmitting.

Sometimes, people try using someone else’s number to check the registration, but only the actual owner of the number can do this. You should use your own number or ask the owner to check it for you.

Lastly, if your internet connection isn’t available, remember that checking through the website or app requires data. In that case, use the SMS method, which works even without internet access.

Tips to Keep Your Globe SIM Active and Secure

• Recharge regularly (for prepaid) or keep your plan current to avoid deactivation due to inactivity.
• Never share your OTP or registration reference number with others.
• If you change your address, ID details, or number ownership, update your registration promptly.
• Safeguard your device against SIM swap fraud by enabling SIM-lock features if supported.
• Periodically verify your registration status, especially before travel or device change.

Conclusion

Checking whether your Globe SIM is registered only takes a few minutes—either via website, SMS or the GlobeOne app. Doing this helps ensure your mobile service stays active and compliant with the SIM Registration Act. Make a habit of verifying your registration status now and then to keep your number secure and uninterrupted.
