That’s awesome

********************

However, on a side note regarding Globe’s GPRS payment scheme. Here’s what I noticed.

********************

I am testing using the built-in wap browser of a Nokia 6630. The site that I go to is wap.google.com

The GPRS usage every time I access this site is constantly 7.38kb.

If the promo price of Globe is true … each access should cost me P0.55 …

However, upon first access ( as in i’ve been dormant from GPRS for about a few hours ) … I was instantly charged a WHOPPING P10 .. GASP!!

Then upon my 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th try I was each charged a regular cost of P1.24 which translates to around P0.15 ( the regular price for Globe’s GPRS )

So there are two points of contention here. The first being the advertised promo price of 0.075 / kb is not true. I am still being charged P0.15 / kb.

Secondly, WHAT IS THE P10 CHARGE FOR THE FIRST ACCESS Huh!!! Shocked Hidden costs??? Tsk Tsk Tsk
