Globe Prepaid LTE SIM now available

The long wait is over: Ayala-led telecommunications giant Globe Telecom now offers prepaid LTE SIM cards for its subscribers who want to speed up their mobile internet speeds across the nation.

The Prepaid LTE SIM cards are available in Combi and Nano SIM versions to fit all SIM card slot sizes. The Combi SIM fits current handsets with regular and micro SIM card slots, while the Nano version fits handsets with smaller card slots such as the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus.

Upon purchase, Prepaid LTE subscribers can activate free Spotify and GoSurf access for one day by texting in FREEGS30 (for Combi SIMs) and FREEGS50 (for Nano SIMs) to 8888.

The new Prepaid LTE SIM cards are priced at Php40 (Combi) and Php75 100 (Nano). Starting tomorrow, November 16, current prepaid subscribers who wish to have their current number on the new LTE SIM may proceed to the nearest Globe Store to have their SIMs replaced and bring a valid ID and your Globe SIM card (*terms, conditions, and payments may apply). Of course, the LTE coverage may be dependent and will work best on your LTE-capable handset, and a location with a strong LTE signal to experience great speeds.

Update: Just talked to a Globe representative earlier and she clarified that the Nano version of the LTE SIM will be available for Php100, a huge difference to the Php75 they advertised a few days ago. We’ll bring you with more updates once we get them.

    Prepaid LTE SIM card replacement also available in SM South Mall despite not requesting for an LTE as a replacement SIM card I was given one. And I’ve also experienced drop-out in LTE signal whenever I’m in an area that doesn’t have LTE coverage. I’m not sure if this is also being experienced by regular LTE SIM cards that can be bought at their store but I had issues since my SIM card got upgraded last March.

    The same thing happened to me last December, not only did I get the same regular SIM card, they issued me a Nano SIM instead of Micro SIM to my dismay. After that, I inquired like every other week back in January hoping that they will have stocks which they always claim that they don’t have any blank LTE SIM cards delivered to their business centers here in Makati. Then when I was in Ali Mall 2 weeks ago, I’ve decided to drop by at the Globe Store and asked for availability of a 209 Micro SIM card, to my surprise it was available but I had to wait up to 24 hours to get LTE service.

    last december, I went to Globe SM Annex for an upgrade but unfortunately they gave me the same regular 3G simcard, really stupid people.

    then last Thursday, I went back to the same store and complained regarding their mistake. it was really stressful and I have to argue with stupid arrogant csr before I was able to get a clear response. unfortunately again, code 209 for my number isn’t available but one of the team leaders promised me that she would get back to me after a week as soon as there’s an available sim, which she did yesterday and finally I got hold of my new LTE simcard with my current number.

    according to her, they have a new system in replacing or upgrading sim where they won’t have to depend on certain codes and generic simcards will be available for all existing numbers as long as the number is still active. the problem is, the number of simcards are ‘limited’ as usual.

    you may look for Jen Mesa or JM in SM Annex store in case you may want to have your sim replaced. she’s very helpful and courteous, one of the few nice and competent people in that store or probably the whole of Globe.

    Now lang na-activate LTE ko. Walang nangyari after I called Globe CS (by the time of my last comment) so I went to Trinoma Globe (since yun ang malapit sakin that time) and ask them what’s the problem, ang sabe baka daw defective ang sim ko and hindi din daw nila kaya palitan kasi wala sila stock so I have no choice but to go back in SM Manila para sabihin concern ko and knowing that they have stock of empty LTE sims since dun din ako sa kanila nagpa-upgrade last week. So far inasikaso naman at direct to technicians ang mga tinawagan para maayos yung problem. Hindi na pinalitan sim ko, talagang account problems lang like trashbox said. By default hindi LTE activated ang Prepaid LTE sims nila(or maybe accounts naten) so make sure na pag-nagupgrade, isama naren yung inquiry about activation ng LTE.

    *By the way, upon asking kanina sa Globe SM Manila, wala na daw empty Prepaid LTE sims para sa mga mag-uupgrade. I forgot to ask when ulit magkaron but might as well check it tomorrow if you’re planning to upgrade.

    To those having Problem to connect to LTE, wala sa SIM ang issue

    Ang Issue is may mga Globe Service personnel na indi na brief na pag nagpalit to LTE SIM kailangan nila i Network provision/enable ung LTE functionality sa Cellphone #/acct mo
