Smart, Globe Or Sun?

[Gideon]

free din yung sa 2346 ng globe, kahit ads yun.  perominsan, me free polytone pa.

wala charge ang balance inquiry sa golbe via text. pag call lang (p1)

Hmmmm....

 

If that was true, so pareho lang pala ang Smart at Globe dun sa Balance inquiry.

 

What was Leviticus saying???

[Gideon]

Just got through with Custoner care at *888.  Spoke with a guy name Mark or Mart.  He claimed he couldn't verify mr MMS sending if it is being sent to another network 

 

When I told him that I can easily receive MMS from Globe- he backed out and went into the process of filling a report.  He gave me a report number and asked me to wait for 24 hours till their technical people checked the service.

We can't verify if an MMS message has been successfully received by a Globe sub. You can verify that I believe on the Globe customer care, because it's a totally different network. We just make sure that it was sent and the proper deduction has been made, and all the cards are upto the Globe network and also the subs phone, if it has it's features activated anyway.

 

There's also a case of congestion and the recipients location to receive the message. There are lot's on intangible things that happens.

 

I guess that's why the customer rep gave you an SR to fully verify it.

 

Via your experience Smart to Smart MMS sending is ok? But only to Globe isn't?

i dont know, i have been a globe user for a very long time. and honestly, its the best service provider for me. i switched from smart to globe. also, i have a sun, for unlimited calls only. i use my old phone for sun

and the text unlimited promo, it seems that globe gives the getter deal (50 for 5 days, as compared to 60 for 4 days of smart)

sang ayon kay rico_yan (kahit nawiwindang ako sa avatar nya)

 

globe also has an unlimited text promo even for post paid subscribers.

 

i am an avid globe user since 1998, pati number ko, di ko pa rin pinapalitan ever since. mas okay rin ang dating ng customer service nila compared to when i call smart hotline in behalf of my dad's postpaid complaints.

i have a smart and sun sims too anyway. para lang sa mga unlimited promos nila.

 

pero malakas ang smart signal dito sa province namin, although lumalaban na rin ang globe!

But to add also, smart's service from my location is just sooo weird. my bro and sis in law are both using smart, their text messages are being received several times by the receiver even if they just send it once. kaltas lagi sa prepaid ng sis in law ko while my bro can't check if nakakaltas kasi he's a postpaid user. that sucks kasi para kang ninanakawan.

now they're both considering shifting to globe.

may tanong pero medyo ot...medyo lng nmn...

 

anong magandang gamitin na sim na pambabae?...haha....

Yup, medyo nga disturbed ako sa AVATAR nya. Is that in memory or you want to be like Rico Yan? :cool:

 

Back to the topic.

 

You say ok ang Customer care ng Globe, and not so good ang Smart. But there are people (if you back read) that has the opposite experience naman. Talagang depende rin sa tyempuhan. Parang reserve seating nga, kahit reserve eh kung masyadong malapit o sobrang nasa tabi ang upuan eh di mo rin enjoy in a comfortable way ang movie.

 

Mas NATIONWIDE nga ang signal ng Smart, sino ang naunang cellsite dyan sa Province nyo?

 

That's an isolated incident on your sister and brother in law. Those kind of complaints are also heard of from Globe users, so the same menace.

[Joblow]

Confirm ko lang, ok ang Smart sa Northern Part? How about Southern?

 

Yung pag akyat mo sa Niyog (I know it;s a joke), you were using a Globe or Smart?

 

I remember P2.00 ang Globe to Smart, haven't been checking the scripts yet.  But when was the P1 text from Globe to Smart started?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Simula ng magka-cel ako (2001) ang alam ko P1.00 lang ang charge from Globe-Smart

can't decide even though I'm a smart user. Lahat kasi me flaw sa mga services nila

I sent myself an mms and got it. I sent it to my friend at Globe- he didn't get it. But the funny thing he was able to sent me an mms and I got it in less than 10 minutes. While the MMS message I sent to my self took 30 minutes.

 

The "akyat ng nyog" is literraly true specially in Sgada- WHEN i was STILL USING GLOBE! But with TNT and Smart I had no problem using it up north!

Hmmm.. To tell you all the truth I was a Globe sub, that was way back 2000, blooming palang ang texting. Many of my Globe friends said that P2.00 daw ang Globe to Smart texting.

 

Then came 2001 when I applied to Smart Comm and immediately got a Smart number for all my accounts. Wala na yung Globe SIM ko, baka recycled na rin yun.

So, the problem is the delay of receiving the MMS message? Where were you located when you sent the message and what time of day?

 

Good to know that the signal of Smart and TNT are good there in SAGADA. That's why we have so many subs, because of our nation-wide coverage.

[rico_yan]

globe's 232 (10 cents per sec) and 235 (P10 per 3 mins) is the best deal ever. plus the unlimited texting

There's no such thing as a perfect system ika nga!

 

Just use the system of any Telecom and feel the services up to your needs.

Delay in sending to myself. My 8 MMS to Globe didn't arrive at all! :grr: I sent my MMS from Manila. The person I sent it to, is in Davao. That's was my presumption nga about Smart- nationwide. So how come he can send an MMS from Davao fast with his Globe and he can't receive my MMS from Smart?

[Sir Galahad®]

As I've heard, mas maganda ang services ng smart when it comes to pre-paid services pero lamang ang globe when it comes to post-paid services... I just heard this, dunno know if it is really true though.

 

Been a globe post-paid user since 1999. Am satisfied naman so far
