Remember, you may register and use GTSOS even without load. There is also no limit on the number of times you can subscribe to the service as long as you do not have an existing or unpaid loan.
Why use the same keyword for both Globe and TM?
That's because we would like our users to use one keyword without having to worry whether they use Globe or TM brand.

After subscribing, how soon can I start using the service?

Do I need to maintain Php 1? Isn't this an emergency service?
Yes. But don't worry, you can still use the GTSOS service even if you have used up the Php 1 maintaining balance.
Is the service available only for certain times of the day?
No. The Emergency Text Service is available 24/7.
Can I use GTSOS while abroad?
Sorry, but you can only register and use the service only when you are in the Philippines.
I tried to register to the service by texting GTSOS to 3733 but received an error message. How can I avail of the service?
It means that the service is experiencing momentary downtime and you may try to register again after a while.
I received a confirmation message that I have successfully availed of GTSOS. How can I check my remaining SMS balance and when they will expire?
You can check your GTSOS SMS balance by texting GTSOSBAL to 3733. You can also text BAL to 222 (for Globe customers) or dial *102# (for TM customers).
How do I settle my existing GTSOS loan?

I need to make an urgent call, do you have the same emergency service for calls?
SMS is the most popular usage of Globe / TM prepaid customers. But eventually we may offer the same emergency service for calls.
How does Emergency Text Service differ from Txt Mo Libre Ko?
With Txt Mo Libre Ko, you can text for free just by adding 2354 to the 11-digit Globe cellphone number you are trying to reach. If the recipient accepts the SMS, they will be charged Php 1 to receive it and to reply.
This will require confirmation from the person you are asking load to. With GTSOS, there's no need for a confirmation from another person. As long as you are qualified, you just need to send the correct registration syntax.
How long will you offer this service?
Emergency Text Service is a permanent emergency service from Globe.
I availed of the Emergency Text Service and upon reloading, the amount to pay for my loas was already deducted within the day. In my previous availments, this happens only after expiry of the service. Why is this so?
The payment for the Emergency Text Service is now deducted on your next reload even when your loaned promo is not yet expired. This allows you to avail of Emergency Text Service whenever you needed. Reminder that you should not have any unpaid balance.
