How To Borrow Load In Smart |
Step 1: Assessing the Damage (and Your Dignity)
First, be honest with yourself. Do you need enough load to send a "Hoy!" to your ex who just posted a suspicious beach photo, or are you aiming for a full-blown video call with your barkada to discuss the latest kilig kilig k-drama episode?
QuickTip: Focus more on the ‘how’ than the ‘what’.![]()
Because the answer will determine your borrowing strategy.

Option A: The "Desperate Measures" Approach (for the mildly parched)
-
The "Pa-Text SOS" (SOS Pautang Text): Text GTSOS to 3733. This legendary service throws you a lifeline of 3 texts to Globe/TM numbers, valid for 1 day, plus a bonus ₱1 for another text (any network). All for the low, low price of your dignity (just kidding, it's only ₱4).
-
The "SOS Big Spender" (for the slightly less desperate): Text SOSBIG7 to 7676. This option gives you 9 texts to Smart/TNT (valid for 1 day) for a cool ₱7. Not bad for a quick chat with your bestie.
Option B: The "Calculated Casanova" Approach (for the romantics with a plan)
-
The "Loan Load Low Roller" (for the budget-conscious Romeo): Text LOAN LOAD5 to 7676. This bad boy gives you a ₱5 load, valid for 3 days, for just ₱7.50. Enough for a few sweet messages and maybe even a voice call (if you're smooth enough).
-
The "Loan Load High Roller" (for the all-in lovebirds): Text LOAN LOAD50 to 7676. Feeling extra kilig? This option grants you a hefty ₱50 load, valid for 15 days, for ₱75. Now go forth and serenade your Juliet (or Romeo) with endless texts and calls!
Remember, borrowing load is like using a credit card: convenient, but use it wisely! Don't end up owing your phone more than you owe your landlord (unless your landlord is also your lola, then maybe it's okay... just kidding... maybe).
QuickTip: Read in order — context builds meaning.![]()
So there you have it, folks! With this guide, you'll never be caught speechless (or textless) again. Now go forth, conquer your communication woes, and remember, a little humor can go a long way, even when you're borrowing load.
