Where in the world is Smart Padala?

Got this in my email box:

Magandang umaga po, san po matatagpuan dito sa jeju city south Korea ang opisina ng smart padala remittance partners abroad? please reply as soon as possible…

Sorry, I don’t have that information either.

I get these kinds of message every so often. Filipinos in other countries looking for Smart Padala’s outlets in the foreign country.

I guess this calls for more detailed information from Smart Padala’s list of Remittance Companies Abroad.

Smart Padala, are you listening?

Idea: When Filipinos use a Smart SIM in a foreign country, why not send the address/location of the Smart Padala to his/her cellphone? This can be sent out together with the welcome message when entering a new country. Just be careful that the messages aren’t the makings of SPASMS (unsolicited SMS messages).

   Hi Len,

   Thanks for the info.

   How come there are differences between your list and Smart’s list?

    Those list I gave you was only a part of the Remittance Companies performing Smart Padala Services. Any OFW can always browse Smart.com.ph for updated Smart Padala Partners. They can always email me for list of remittance companies that is not yet offering Smart Padala. We can have them accredited.

    Thanks and regards,

    Hi ka edong.

    We are currently expanding the Smart Padala remittance services coverage worldwide. In some areas, I believe are more difficult to penetrate than others. Should your readers and our overseas kababayans need information on the subject and suggest that our services should be in their areas abroad, please just forward me an email and we will definitely do something about it.

    Thanks and more power.

    How do we contact you, Rexie?

    Cross over to Shangrila EDS Mall,
    there’s a Smart Wireless center there where you can transact Smart Padala.
