Bb. Pilipinas 2011 People's Choice text voting starts

Binibining Pilipinas Charities Inc. and ABS-CBN Interactive have opened the PEOPLE'S CHOICE VOTING for the 40 Bb. Pilipinas 2011 candidates.

Here's how to vote for your favorite candidate...

On your mobile phones, just text:

BINIBINI candidate #

(For example: BINIBINI 41)

And then send it to 231, for Smart and TalkNText

or send to 2331 for Globe, TM and Sun Cellular subscribers.

(P2.50/text for Globe, TM, Smart, Talk'n'Text · P2.00/text for Sun Cellular)

Then you will a confirmation message which looks like this:

"We received your vote! P2.50/text. Voting is until April 10, 2011, 7pm. Visit http://bbpilipinas.abs-cbn.com for details. Call (02) 4158766 for help.(ABSi)."

The candidate with the number of text votes will be named Face of Bb. Pilipinas 2011, to be announced during the pageant's Coronation Night on April 10.

During the Binibining Pilipinas 2007 pageant, a similar voting was also conducted, the Smart Texter's Choice and the winner was guaranteed an automatic slot in the semi-finals.

I hope it will also be the case for this year's voting.
