Globe SIM PUK Code | Unlock Your SIM Card
If you enter your Globe PIN three times in a row, your SIM will get blocked for security issues. In this situation, the PUK code (Personal Unblocking Key) is necessary to unlock your SIM. You can get the PUK code through SIM packaging, Globe APP, portal, and customer care.
Why does SIM get PUK locked?
The SIM gets locked due to security reasons. Here are some common reasons that lead to a PUK SIM card:
- Entering the wrong pins three times in a row
- Request the company to lock the SIM in case of SIM loss or stolen
- Sometimes Globe Telecoms automatically locks the SIM after detecting unusual activity
How To Get Globe SIM PUK Code?
There are three different ways to get a PUK SIM card Globe. You can use any of the methods according to your preference. Below, I have provided a detailed tutorial about each method:
Get From SIM Packing
The code is available on the SIM card packaging. If your SIM packaging is available, you are lucky. Check the packing, and you will get the code near your phone. Note the code and use it to unlock the SIM. This is the most covenant method to get your PUK Globe SIM.
Get Code Online
The code is also available on the official Globe portal and the GlobeOne app. Here’s how to get the PUK code online:
- First of all, visit the Globe official portal.
- Now go to the search bar and search “PUK code”.
- Enter your mobile number, and you will get a code to unlock your SIM.
The same process is valid for both: GlobeOne app and the Portal.
Get Via Customer Care
If the above two methods do not work for you, you can consider this third and last method. Here is how you can get the code through the helpline:
- First of all, call the Globe helpline at 808.
- Report your issue and request the PUK code.
- Provide all the required details to the helpline.
- You will get your code after a short verification.
If you want in-person assistance, you can also visit your nearest Globe store.
How to Unlock your Globe SIM Using PUK code?
Once you get your code successfully, you can use it to unlock your SIM card. Here is how to unlock PUK SIM Globe:
- First of all, insert your locked SIM card into your mobile phone
- Now you will be asked to enter the PUK code. Enter the code carefully in the required field.
- After that, you will be asked to set up a new PIN. Set a new, strong, and memorable PIN.
- In the end, restart your phone, and your SIM will be unlocked.
Note: Always enter an accurate code carefully. If you enter the wrong code continuously 10 times, your SIM will be locked permanently.
What If My SIM got permanently locked?
On entering the wrong PUK code almost ten times, your SIM will be locked permanently. In this case, your SIM will be locked, and you can not use it anymore. You will have no access to your SIM, including your balance and promos.
However, there is a working solution for this issue. You can consider the Globe SIM card replacement with the same number. In this way, all your old SIM card data will be transferred to the new SIM automatically. You will get complete access to tour promos, plans, packages, contacts, and accounts linked to your SIM card.
Tips To Avoid Issues
Here are some practical tips that would help you avoid complications and issues while getting the code and unlocking your SIM card:
- Always keep your SIM card cover safe. SIM packing is one of the most convenient, safe, and easy ways to get the PUK SIM card Globe.
- Always enter the PUK code carefully. 10 wrong attempts would lead to the permanent SIM locking. In this case, you will lose all access to the SIM card.
- When you enter your code, you are asked to set up a new PIN. At this stage, always set up an easy-to-remember PIN to avoid SIM locking in the future.
- Write down your new PIN in a safe place to avoid issues in the future.
- If your SIM gets permanently locked, SIM replacement is the best option to get your SIM back.
Conclusion
If your Globe SIM gets PUK locked after entering the wrong PIN three times, you can only unlock it using the Globe SIM PUK code. The PUK code is available on SIM packaging, GlobeOne app, or customer care. Enter the correct PUK to unlock and reset your PIN.
Avoid more than 10 wrong PUK entries to prevent permanent lock. If permanently locked, replace your SIM to keep your number and data.
