How to Borrow Load from Smart and TNT
Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you desperately needed to text or call but suddenly realized you had no remaining load? Before reaching out to friends for a “Pasa Load” or rushing to the nearest store to buy a prepaid load, Smart and TNT offer a convenient alternative: borrowing load. This service is convenient during emergencies when you need to stay connected. You can even borrow text, call, and internet promos if you meet the qualifications.
What Is Smart SOS Or Utang Load?
Smart SOS, commonly called “utang load,” allows Smart and TNT subscribers to borrow prepaid load credits or select text, call, and internet bundles. This service ensures that you remain connected without needing to ask for a load from friends or family. After availing of the Smart loan load, the corresponding amount is automatically deducted from your next load recharge or top-up. So, remember that your loan will be repaid the next time you reload your prepaid credits.
