well i just subscribed to globe duo using my prepaid globe phone last oct 11, 5pm. i can receive calls from pldt landlines, but not the other way around. i thought this issue was already fixed. bayantel lines work well though. i called globe and they said after the complaints during the past month, the duo to pldt issue was already resolved. called their cust service for 3 times, and the rep who last talked to me said to wait for 3-5 days before it gets serviced. according to her, to enjoy and make ’sulit’ (her term) use of the globe duo subscription, i should call instead bayantel lines. and i was like, omg, you’re telling me to make the most out of it by calling bayantel lines while all i need to call are business lines which are mostly pldt? well it’s their cust service rep.

and my subscription is 1 month, since i joined without qualms. what if the subscription is less than 3-5 days? then everything went to nothing? until now, oct 13 7am, i still can’t call pldt lines. globe doesn’t deliver, at least on my end. so frustrating.

alang kuwenta!!! nag-try ako mag-register for 1 day just to try it, nka-register naman & globe had given me a landline # (02-5046367)… pero hindi ako naka-connect kahit once sa kahit anong landline!!! its a waste of money & time really…and when i called 211 (globe toll-free prepaid hotline) the customer service told me that there are some globe prepaid nos. that are still not set by the system for globe duo including mine (09176670566)!!! huh??? at wala sila masabi kundi “sorry for the inconvenience”… bullshit….

best parin ang smart and PLDT tandem ko. I’m using pldt call all for only 250 per month, unlimited call and i can now run my business kahit wala ako sa manila. I can also subscribe to smart unlicall para pang mobile calls naman. Sa mga clients ko naman na naka other network, i can just text them and give them my landline para makapag usap kami.

Globe broadband, Globe Lines is a NO NO sa akin. dahil sa ginawa nila sa phone line and internet connection namin. So what’s the diff sa mobile services nila?

I called up Globe’s 24hour Call-in Service and they told me that they are experiencing technical issues on connection to PLDT lines. This was adviced to them last Aug18. The person i talked to said they aren’t sure when the problem will be solved but their technical team is already on it. Its very disappointing as most of my friends are on PLDT lines. Hopefully, they can fix the problem asap. I’d still go for the 30-day DUO (im on prepaid!) coz its cheaper than the 1/5/14 days.

same thing happened to me. I have a prepaid service, before I can make outgoing calls to any landline. After subscribing to DUO, I cant make any calls to any landline anymore, except globe landlines. incoming calls from any landline works naman… kaso wala na ako matawagan na landline.

I am a prepaid subsriber and availed of the DUO service. Their ad is a hoax…i cannot connect to any PLDT landline number (yeah i used the 02 syntax thing).

The globe duo service is a crap for prepaid subscribers. I already subscribed for a month and I cannot connect to pldt landlines for 4 days already. I also have the 500 prefix and the service was good until 4 days ago.

I cannot make outgoing calls to PLDT landlines but calling up any Bayantel or Globelines is without a hiss. But receiving call from these landlines on my Duo number poses no problem at all.

I am hoping that they will fix this glitch soon or my Php 450 subscription will just go to waste.

So anyone who is planning to get one better think about it carefully as the service now sucks!

im a prepaid subscriber and tried the one day promo for Php25 this morning. i was able to use the outgoing call (globe duo to local landline), but the incoming call feature from a LANDLINE was not working. the voice prompt said NOT IN SERVICE. i called 211 and reported the problem, and was asked to monitor within 24hrs.

after 5 hours, i was able to receive an incoming call from a landline. but when i tried using the outgoing feature (to another landline number), ITS NO LONGER WORKING. seems like we cannot use BOTH incoming and outgoing features at the same time!! i don’t think this should be advertised as UNLIMITED, as obviously this is NOT.

their customer service team was also of no help.

this is very terrible. this is extortion!why do we have to buy another sim pack? new sim, new number? why can’t they just support our old numbers? does anyone out there wants to change his old number? especially if you’ve been using that old number for quite some time and your friends, relatives and contacts knew your old number very well. lastly, this even more expensive than other networks! globe telecom will fall if they will not change their business strategies. in these times of needs, who would want to subscribe to a very expensive telecom service?

laki pala difference

POSTPAID: P400/30days
PREPAID: P350/14days

postpaid kami ng gf ko kaya nasusulit namin duo. ginagamit ko rin para sa client calls, or magpapa deliver kaya nasusulit ko duo.

alternative ng prepaid ay yung “+236″ P20/20min call instead of the P25/day duo prepaid fee. di na kailangan ng special sim.
