THE Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) reminded cell phone users to register their SIM (subscriber identity module) cards to avoid their deactivation.

Speaking at a briefing on Thursday, DICT Secretary Ivan John Uy said SIM card users must register within the prescribed 180-day period or their SIM will be automatically deactivated.
