Magandang araw, mga ka-PHC!

Share ko lang itong detailed guide kung paano mag-request ng official device unlocking (Openline) mula sa Smart/PLDT, lalo na kung lagpas 2 years (24 months) na mula nang mabili ninyo ang device.

Under NTC Memorandum Circular No. 01-05-2019, mandatory para sa mga telcos na i-unlock ang mga devices upon request ng customer kapag tapos na ang lock-in period nito. Para mas mapabilis ang action ni Smart, isasali natin ang NTC Consumer complaint team sa email.

(Note: Kagaya ng nakikita natin sa mga threads like the PLDT Home 5G+ openline discussions, having the Official Receipt is a huge advantage).

Mga Kailangan (Requirements):

  1. Proof of Purchase: Official Receipt (OR) ng device. Dapat nakapangalan sa iyo o may authorization letter ka.
  2. Valid ID: 1 or 2 Government-issued IDs ng owner na nasa resibo.
  3. Device Details: IMEI number (for phones/modems) at Serial Number ng device.
  4. Active Email Address
Step-by-Step Guide:

Step 1: I-ready ang mga attachments
Picturan o i-scan ang iyong Official Receipt at Valid ID. Siguraduhing malinaw at nababasa ang details. Kunin na rin ang IMEI/Serial number sa likod ng device o sa box.

Step 2: Gumawa ng Email requestMag-compose ng bagong email. I-send ito sa official Customer Care email ng Smart at i-CC (Carbon Copy) ang NTC para add as priority at agad nilang aksyunan agad.

Step 3: Gamitin ang Email Template na ito
Kopyahin ninyo na lang itong format sa ibaba at palitan ang mga details na nasa loob ng brackets [ ].

Code:
Subject: Formal Request for Device Unlocking pursuant to NTC MC No. 01-05-2019 - [Your Name] / [Device Model]

To Smart Communications Customer Service,
CC: NTC Consumer Welfare Division,

Good day,

I am writing to formally request the network unlocking of my [Device Brand and Model], which was purchased from your network on [Date of Purchase].

As of this date, the device has successfully completed its 24-month (2 years) period from the date of purchase. Pursuant to the NTC Memorandum Circular No. 01-05-2019 (Rules and Regulations on the Unlocking of Mobile Phones and Devices), telecommunications companies are mandated to unlock eligible devices upon the request of the customer after the lock-in period has expired.

Below are the details of my device for your reference:
- Name of Registered Owner: [Your Full Name]
- Contact Number: [Your Active Contact Number]
- Device Brand and Model: [e.g., PLDT Home 5G+ WiFi / iPhone 13]
- IMEI Number: [15-digit IMEI]
- Serial Number: [Device Serial Number]
- Date of Purchase: [Exact Date from Receipt]

I have attached a clear copy of my Official Receipt (OR) and my valid Government ID to verify my identity and ownership of the device.

I kindly request the unlock code or the remote unlocking procedure for this device as soon as possible. Thank you and I look forward to your prompt action on this matter.

Respectfully,

[Your Name]
[Your Contact Number]

Step 4: Wait for Confirmation and Follow-up
Makakatanggap ka ng automated reply galing kay Smart na may kasamang Ticket Number. I-save niyo 'yan. Dahil naka-CC ang NTC, mas mabilis nilang ipapasa ito sa support team na nag-aasikaso ng unlocking. Mag-reply lang sa thread ng email kung nanghihingi pa sila ng additional details via Smart SAM.

Sana makatulong ito sa mga gustong mag-legit openline ng mga devices nila! Drop your questions below kung may nalilito.

Q: Paano kung sa Lazada o Shopee ko binili yung modem?
A:
Kung binili mo ito mismo sa Official Smart/PLDT Store sa Lazada o Shopee, kadalasan ay may kasamang physical na Official Invoice o Receipt sa loob ng parcel mo. Kapag wala sa parcel, nagse-send din sila ng electronic receipt (e-OR) sa email na naka-link sa account mo. Iyon ang gagamitin mo! Kung nawala mo na ang physical copy at wala sa email, pwede kang mag-message directly sa official merchant store sa Lazada/Shopee para mag-request ng soft copy o reprint.
Note: Kung sa 3rd-party reseller (hindi official store) mo nabili, kailangan mo pa ring hingin sa kanila yung original na resibo galing Smart/PLDT dahil iyon ang hahanapin ng Customer Care.
