To use your Smart or TNT SIM card number to make landline calls, you should dial the telephone number using the format below.
Dial 0 + Area Code + PTE code + 7-digit landline number

How much is the rate for calling a landline using Smart/TNT?
Calling a telephone number using your Smart or TNT prepaid number will cost Php7.50 per minute. Definitely not cheap, so it’s best to make your landline call fast and clear before you run out of prepaid load.
You get PLDT call allocation if you’re subscribed to Smart postpaid plans, which you can check below. However, the standard Php7.50 rate applies to other telephone lines.
| Plan | Calls to PLDT |
| Smart Signature Device Plans | |
| Lite 599/mo | 25mins |
| Plan S 999/mo | 50mins |
| Plan M 1499/mo | 100mins |
| Plan L 1999/mo | 150mins |
| Smart Signature Plus Plans | |
| Plan 599 | UNLI |
| Plan 999 | UNLI |
| Plan 1499 | UNLI |
| Plan 999 | UNLI |
Is there a Smart, TNT promo for landline calls?
Unfortunately, none of Smart and TNT promos currently offer call allocation for landline numbers. So, when making calls, you have no choice but to pay the Php7.50/minute fee.
What promos are available for Smart and TNT prepaid subscribers?
Since the standard rate for landline calls is expensive, you might want to resort to other ways of communication to reach someone. It can be through mobile phone calls, SMS messages, or online. Fortunately, there are a lot of Smart prepaid promos and TNT promos available to choose from.
That’s it. Do you have any questions regarding landline/telephone calls on TNT and Smart? Let us know in the comments.

In What Way to Optimize Your Child’s Academic Results for Secondary Education with Private

“In the beginning my child didn’t want
to study on their own, once we found a suitable tutor, they became
enthusiastic,” recounted a friend.

student’s needs.
According to research from Gadjah Mada University

demonstrate around 40% better concept grasp. Thus, it’s not just higher grades,
but children’s thinking processes and learning strategies also evolve.
