The FREEBIES are a lot more clearer now..
I hate it when they breakup the lines and say free! I really thought it was Free calls and text to Globe/TM, albeit, unli call and text.
Good thing this ‘free’ is really free this time unlike the (previous?) G-Plans (non-consumable plans)!!!
^consumable amounts can ONLY be used for calls, text, and mobile surfing. Share-A-Load, wallpaper downloads, ringtone downloads, and others will be charged on top of your bill!
Part 3: Explanation.
You get to consume the amount that you pay for plus freebies unlike the G-Plans (that I think Globe is still offering).
Gotta love these consumable plans! I am currently on a 250 consumable extension line and it is really flexible! (but now I’m planning to switch to this)
Here are some examples.
First: 299 (E)
What you get: unlimited calls and texts to only 1 Globe/TM number and consume 199 for other things*
You pay: 299**
Second: Plan 299 (A)
What you get: 10 min calls & 200 SMS to Globe/TM and you get use the 299 for other things* or in a different perspective, 10 mins + 499 texts to Globe or 56 mins of call + 200 SMS to Globe… sweet
You pay: 299**
Third: Plan 499 (A, E)
What you get: 10 min calls, 200 SMS to Globe/TM, unlimited calls and text to 1 Globe number and consume 399 for other things*
You pay: 499**
Fourth: Plan 499 (E, E)
What you get: unlimited calls and text to 2 Globe numbers and consume 299 for other things*
You pay: 499 only**
Fifth: Plan 1799 (A, A, D, E, E) [I guess by now you get the point]
What you get: 20 min call, 200 SMS to Globe/TM, 3hours mobile surfing, unlimited calls and text to 2 Globe numbers and consume 1,799 for other things* (P200 is not consumed)
You pay: 1,799**
* consume the total amount (example 199) for 199 text messages, 30 min for Globe-to-Globe call, OR 9 hours mobile surfing (example 299) 299 text messages or 46 mins of Globe-to-Globe calls, OR 14 hours of mobile surfing
**if you did not go over your consumable balance or avail of other services
Part 4: Verdict.
If you are on a tight budget and only call and text people sometimes and have a significant other subscribed to Globe the Plan 299 (E) is perfect because you get to enjoy unlimited texting and calling to your significant other and use the 199 for texting or calling your family members and other friends or surfing the net (Google Maps navigation, checking email, or Google searching on the fly).
I like it and I set it as an example because my bill last month sky rocketed to 850 pesos instead of the usual 250, because my significant other likes to ask for load and avail of UNLITXT and of course I have to reply to all the messages sent to me.
I don’t text a lot and most of my load is consumed when replying to people with UNLITXT!
Part 5: Other information (FYI)
- Lock-in period is 1 year for a subscriber who did not avail of a handset. 2 years for those who availed for a handset.
- There is a early termination fee of P550 if you want to cancel out early. (You still need to pay for the handset if you avail of it)
- Unused freebies will not carry-over to the next month.
- You can change your freebies as often as every month. (let’s say your significant other does not want to load up on July, then opt for A instead of E for July)
- Plan 999 and above will NOT consume P100 from your consumable amount when availing of the SUPER ONE freebie (E) [another perspective of the first fine print]
- You shall not unlock the phone given to you by Globe. (do it after the lock-in period hehe’)
- You can also avail for other handsets than the ones provided.

hi!
i have read a blog about the blackberry plans surf unli 999 that it is only unlimited if used in BB’s APN. So does this mean if ill gonna surf using the Globe APN; ill be charged? or used the sim for any device other than BB i would be charged extra? tsk tsk tsk
crazy.
thnx!
October 12th, 2011 on 9:27 am
indeed it is crazy… i don’t own a BB or on a BB plan so i cannot verify this, sorry
October 25th, 2011 on 7:50 am
Hi!!
Why is it that you put the Freebie letter “E” under the plan 499 in your explanation? Whereas in the Freebie part, plan 499 says that you can only pick from A-D?
Please clarify, thank you!!
October 25th, 2011 on 8:54 am
freebie E is available on plan 299 and 499 but 100 pesos will be deducted from your consumable plan.
it has an asterisk (*)
the selection is not available online (from Globe) to lessen the confusion. but it still has the footnote that freebie E is available for plans 299 and 499
October 27th, 2011 on 11:22 am
Alright, thanks for clearing that up!
November 6th, 2011 on 6:58 am
Hi there!
I haven’t tried this plans yet and I’m curious with their new offer of ipad 2 for the plan 999. I don’t know how much will I pay every month for it and if I have to pay a down payment first for the gadget before I can avail it. Please tell me and help me with this. Thanks
November 6th, 2011 on 3:17 pm
You will have to pay 999 per month and pay up 21,990 to get the device.
November 15th, 2011 on 11:34 pm

November 17th, 2011 on 5:13 am

Would you know if non-working students can apply for a postpaid line? Are there any documents we can present? Or do applicants need to be employees who possess proof of billing above Php 10k, certificate of employment, etc.?
November 21st, 2011 on 9:27 am
yes, a non-working student can apply for a postpaid line.
you can use your mom/dad’s documents — proof of billing, proof of income, ID’s (and yours too)
or just make the line under your mom/dad’s name with you paying for it.
November 22nd, 2011 on 1:57 pm
Hi! I’m also a non-working student. Can you explain this further? What are the exact documents I need to apply for plan 499 with a free handset? Thank you!
February 8th, 2012 on 7:53 am
you can use your parent’s income documents. but the line will be under their name.

December 5th, 2011 on 11:20 am
Can I avail a free handset if I’ll use ‘My Super Surf’for only a month?
December 14th, 2011 on 4:27 pm
what you can do is sign up for any plan (cheaper the better if you will) with free handset then avail of the My Super Surf just for a month (http://surf.globe.com.ph/plan/supersurf)
then turn it OFF the following month.

December 14th, 2011 on 4:35 pm
if you want to make any changes now, you can pay for the remaining balance [value] of the handset (they have the computation for that) plus a termination fee. 10k i think.
December 15th, 2011 on 5:24 pm

December 15th, 2011 on 5:31 pm

Hi! my question is connected to part 5. If I were to pre-terminate my plan, is it possible to give back my handset and just pay pre-termination fee and all my unbilled charges?
January 16th, 2012 on 12:09 pm
you have to pay for the phone together with the termination fee and unbilled charges.

hi, I’m a globe subscriber but recently I avail the plan 999 consumable to get a BB handset last December. My new account is activated this December 31, 2011 and i was shocked that they already sent out my bill this January 18, 2012. Another thing that confused me is that I avail the freebies A,B and E..and i computed my account..eventually I can’t see where is my 999 consumable goes because my billed roar up almost 1,300 in just a short time. How is 999 consumable works? do u really consume that amount? please lighten me up… Thanks.
January 18th, 2012 on 5:32 pm
yes, you can consume that amount.
but you can only consume that amount in regular calls, regular texts, and regular time-based or KB-based internet surfing.
subscribing to unlitext, unlisurf, share-a-load, etc is not deductible from your consumable — they will be charged on top of your 999 plan.
January 27th, 2012 on 11:44 am

Hi, I am newbie in postpaid plan, I avail blackberry 9780 with P1799 monthly. I’d shared 150 load to prepaid subscribers and for this day I consumed almost 1000load. my question is the 150load were I shared will add into my bill 1799+150 = P1949(total bill) or still P1799 (because I already consume P1000 and 150 for share a load)? and what will happen to my remaining balance if I don’t use it for this month it will add to my next postpaid load or it will disregard?
February 4th, 2012 on 5:31 am
the 150 load will be added to your bill. [1799+150 = P1949(total bill)]
the remaining balance will not carry over/add up to the following month. the remaining will be disregarded.
February 5th, 2012 on 3:33 am
hi i want to avail the 1799 plan with the handset Iphone 4s. Im earning about 14k a month(allowances included) can i avail this? what are the other details? thank you.
February 8th, 2012 on 7:56 am
it will be decided by the credit investigator of globe. i don’t know kung magkano dapat ang income para makapag avail ng iphone 4s.
February 5th, 2012 on 5:38 pm
Read you manage to get an extension line.
When applying for an extension line, am I gan get a new handset? And how much would my monthly payment cost all in all? Thanks.
February 8th, 2012 on 7:57 am
you can get a new handset with a new line.
your monthly payment will be the total cost of both lines plus the cost of the handsets (if ever)
February 6th, 2012 on 9:55 am
It seems that I cannot apply yet because I’m still a college student with no Proof of Financial Capacity documents. I have a friend that has already availed of the blackberry plan that I also want to avail. Can I still make him my guarantor? Can he add another plan under his name? How many plans under one name is allowed?
February 8th, 2012 on 7:58 am
yes, he can add another plan under his name.
i believe there can only be 2 extension lines under an account.
you can also ask your parents to apply for the line for you.

i availed bb plan for unlisurf combo plan 999 .. are my email, bbm, fb and twitter are already included with 999 i’m paying for? and the only way that i’d be charged is only when i download anything from surfing? since that my understanding was its unlisurf (unlimited), i’m not signing out of my fb & twitter accounts anymore and i do also have my bbm which i didn’t register for any promo because its already automatically registered on the plan..
February 8th, 2012 on 8:18 am
you are on unli surf and not unli social. so you have unlimited web surfing as well.
you pay only 999.
