Philippine Cell Phone Prefix Access Codes
There are numerous cell phone service providers in the Philippines such as PLDT SMART, Globe Telecom, and Sun Cellular, and each of them are assigned different cellphone prefix codes. Yes, the country code of the Philippines is +63, and although most of the local mobile phones here begin with 09, the actual international phone number format should start with +639…
So if a cell phone number in Manila is 0918-1234567 the long format is +639181234567.
Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, here are the different prefix access codes:
SMART
0918
0919
0920
0928
0929
Globe
0906
0907
0915
0916
0917
0926
0927
Sun
0922
0923

Now that you know which provider handles which access code, you can choose your SIM card wisely. For example, if most the people you contact are using Sun Cellular numbers, then it will be better for you to also get a Sun SIM, because you can save on SMS text and voice call charges.
very nice info. this is very beneficial too to some people who are bombarded with prank calls! i’ve been a target of that…

Thanks for posting this information. I was searching for which network 0929 and 0999 belongs to.

Using PLDTonline to load, my SMART number with prefix 0999 is being rejected. Does anybody have a way around this? I have been successful in the last; not I can’t load my roaming SMART phone.

Ang tintandaan ko lang naman d’yan ay ‘yong pang-apat na numero sa labing-isang numero ng mga mobile number e.
Hal. 091[9]xxxxxxx.
Kapag 0, 1, 8, at 9 ay Smart/ TNT;
(meron na ring 7 sa bagong Smart subscribers/users)
Globe/TM naman ‘pag 5, 6, at 7;
at Sun ‘pag 2 at 3.
