Text 2600

**Radical!** · March 3rd, 2008 01:24 PM

Hope there's no existing thread on this (i've done 6 searches already) I don't know if this belongs to the Thumbs up headquarters, so I leave it to the mods to decide.

Here it goes...

There's a new text service provided by LTO/Stradcom to verify authenticity and status of a motor vehicle or driver's license holder.

For Vehicle verification:
Text: LICENSE PLATE <license plate number> (no spaces) and send to 2600 P 2.50 per text. You will receive in about 20 seconds the Make, Model, Year, Color and will know if there's an existing apprehension or LTO alarm.

For Driver's license information:
Text: LTO LICENSE <license number> (no spaces/dash) and send to 2600 P 2.50 per text. In 20 seconds or so, you will receive information regading license validity, existing apprehension (if any) and LTO alarm (if any).

I find the License plate service very convenient for those seeking authenticity or matches on the plate number or any aprehension record of any vehicle you are about to purchase. For the license service, it's convenient for those hiring drivers to check the authenticity of the applicant's driver's license. No need to cue up in an LTO office anymore.

Thumbs up to the LTO!

Enjoy!

Just tried it now, it works. Make sure to text this only LTO LICENSE <license number> for license details and LTO VEHICLE <license plate number> and send to 2600. For example:

Text LTO VEHICLE ZBH334 then send to 2600.

hmmm. mukhang malaking tulong ito lalo na sa Tsikot classifieds, potential buyers can ask the sellers for the license plate number for verification muna, before making a face to face transaction

Galeng, it works . . .

Happy to share. I read that this is just a 'teaser.' LTO/Stradcom will expand the information and add additional services in the near future.

I tried verifying my ride's plate no. and i got a response after approx. 20 sec.
all the info on my ride were all correct. but re my license, i tried verifying it, and i got a "No record found", i guess another case of an agency which is not updated in uploading their files.

Malaking tulong ito sa ating mga mamamayan na nangangailangan ng serbisyo ng LTO, mabuhay po kayo Chairman Suansing!

Maraming salamat din sayo Radical !
