I have been a LOYAL subscriber of Globe for more than 10 years now. It just sucks to know that their quality of their service to their consumers has rapidly been getting worse.

And their customer loyalty department? It seems like their goal is to have people transfer their lines to their competitors. Kung hindi pa ako magagalit, hindi pa tatawag Customer Service nila.

Hindi makatarungan na itong iPhone eh paghihintayin nila subscriber nila. Ang nakakatawa pa, iba iba sinasabi ng Customer Service reps. So funny, it seems like they don’t know what they’re talking about.

Malas, at napunta ang iPhone sa Globe. Sana sa Smart na lang.

interesting exchange here. i for one personally think that globe’s iphone pricing is still way too much. globe could have really maximized this to steal market share but instead, i’m quite certain they’ll get so much negative press from this. one can’t compare the price to other countries by just applying the forex — a P70 mcdo value meal here is P250 there. sigh. this is a monumentally big marketing mistake on pricing that globe will surely pay for.

Why not get a jailbroken iphone? Thats what I have and I dont have any problems with it whatsoever and you can use any sim. A jailbroken iphone actually has advantages, especially being able to use the Installer.app and download free apps directly from the Internet. With the one Globe is releasing, you’ll only be able to download from the Apple Store and thats $$$. Mine doesn’t have 3G but i don’t mind because I’ve Wifi both at home and work. The only issue I guess is warranty, you just need to make sure you take very good care of it.

iphone 8gb 3g – 41k, 16gb will be 48k those are the prices for prepaid iphone… and its official..

ang mahal naman. i think not many will avail the plan since 3500 will be too much. 3500 is in the range of business people and the iphone are supposed to be for kids/yuppies since its more inclined to multimedia/music? right? if it goes to the level of 1800 and the downpayment is at 9,000 then the lock-in period is at 36 months… i’d get the plan.

Those who are complaining that the price is not exactlu $199 & $299, obviously you did not read the other comments explaining how the iPhone is sold in the U.S. Baka gusto niyong magbasa bago mabahala.

The plans Globe is packaging are really directed towards business users. I’m a yuppy, and I can consume anywhere from 3k to 5k a month on phone calls only, most of them long-distance. I also have a separate Globe Visibility data plan which I used on a datacard on my laptop. BUT really, if you’re that busy you’d want something that’s not so multi-media oriented. I’d want a QWERTY keypad for non-stop emails & SMS plus editing documents on MS Office applications. Heck, if I were getting a Globe Platinum Plan, better na kumuha na lang ng Nokia E71 or a Samsung SGH-i780. THOSE are business phones.

Sablay talaga… The people who can afford that phone would rather WORK than watch YouTube or listen to music. Its strength is multimedia and the business functions are weak. Pang-bagets yan eh.

I expect Globe to lower the plans… Magdasal kayo na ibaba nila yan sa Plan 1800 or 2500 man lang.

All I’m hoping for is that Globe makes the iPhone 3G available for people who don’t yammer on the phone for long periods. Plan free 25,000 to 30,000 is fair enough but don’t force everyone into these ‘business’ plans. The iPhone isn’t exclusively a business phone after all. There are the apps, wifi, and ipod, etc. Even if we could afford the 3,500 monthlies, what if we don’t need and consume 750 mins and 600 sms? Heck, I think I talk too much on the phone yet I still don’t consume THAT much. If Globe wants to get us iPhone fans into plans, offer a wider range of deals.

And for the love of God, an additional 2,000 for 3G/data?! HAHA&%@#$!.

You know what, Mac/iPhone fans are a really gutsy bunch. Could we make enough noise, should the Globe plans be too restrictive, unfair? Just like what the Canadians did to Rogers carrier?

[...] the Philippines, Globe is mostly likely going to milk a lot of cash from the iPhone. According to Yugatech, the iPhone 3G will be sold at Php9,995 at Plan 3,500. WTF? That’s $217 for the phone and $76 [...]

This is not a bad deal at all, we use Smart Infinity and GLobe Platinum lines at our office and they are about P5,000 per month. (not exactly sure as I don’t pay bills). And unlimited data for 2,000 is not bad because my data charge is more than that right now because we don’t have unlimited data on our plans. But this plan definately isn’t for everyone, if you don’t want to spend that much, go buy one from apple.com (if you can get it here) or go to greenhills, unlock it and slap your sim in there. Or you can just wait for the prepaid version which is coming out soon. Yes, it’s expensive but I’m a firm believer of “you get what you pay for”.
