        I have paid my cignal postpaid via gcash last July 4 amounting 640.00 but sad to say the bill sent to us this july 23 was double the amount. How can we check our balance?

        • Bryan Rilloraza Reply

          If you paid after the cut-off period, your payment will not yet reflect on the bill. Best to call their customer service to check if your payment was posted.

        If my pin is already used or claimed as what the Cignal Web Loading Tool has send, does it mean that I already loaded the load that I bought from GCash?
