Text SSS: Your Door To Easy SSS Requests

|

Since the arrival of government organization call centers, concerns and requests came easy. But hey, you can’t deny the fact that reaching them can be a bit of a headache, right? A lot of people with multiple kinds of requests call them; a lot of people try to reach them. That’s the reason why you’re waiting for more than 10 minutes just to talk to a representative. Although that’s the case, the Social Security System (SSS) was successful in devising a way on how everyone can be in contact with them without having to wait! Text SSS was made for Filipino citizens for ease and efficiency.


What is Text SSS?

Text SSS is kind of self-explanatory. It’s a facility that allows members to inquire about many different things. Basically, it serves like what a call center would do; it will assist you with your inquiry/concern and you don’t have to wait!

What can you inquire in this Text SSS Facility?

Through this new facility, a member can inquire about:

So how do I utilize this feature?

First and foremost, you would have to register to have this facility ready for you. Furthermore, this will plate out everything in your account; meaning, the system will not be confused as to who you are and that all information you will receive will be accurate and legitimate.

Members can register just through the SMS as well!

SSS REG <SSS NUMBER> <BDAY[mm/dd/yyyy]> send to 2600

The format that you would need to submit can be seen above. After creating the message, you need to send it to 2600. Once your registration completes, you will receive a text message with your unique, system-generated PIN. This PIN you will receive will be required in the Text SSS facility every time you interact with it. Every time you need access to your account, you will need to supply your PIN so that the system will successfully recognize that it’s you, the account holder/owner.

NOTE: The service fee for this facility would be Php2. 50.  That amount is for both Globe/TM and Smart subscribers. For Sun Cellular subscribers, it’s Php2. 00.
