How to distinguish number prefixes of mobile phones - Globe/TM, Smart/TnT, Sun

I have been confused on the mobile prefixes of the cellular networks because i have unlimited calls to globe only. So in order not to go beyond my plan, i have to  know most of the prefixes used by Globe and TM subscribers


Do you want to know which mobile phone number belongs to which network? Below is a list of mobile number prefixes used by Globe, Smart, Sun Cellular, Red Mobile, Talk ‘N Text, and Touch Mobile. This list is useful for those who often subscribe to unlimited text or call services.

Mobile phone area codes in the Philippines are composed of three digits and always start with the number 9. Originally, there were only three prefixes or area codes used for mobile phones: 917 for Globe Telecom, 918 for Smart Communications and 973 for Express Telecom, the three existing mobile companies at the time. As service grew rapidly throughout the 1990s and even until today, existing codes have been exhausted and new codes have been added to fulfill demand. [Source: Wikipedia]
