Globe silently revamps DSL plan data caps

We have learned that Globe Telecom has made quick fixes on their new consumable DSL Plans, according to their new website image detailing monthly data caps for Tattoo DSL, Wireless Broadband, and Platinum Broadband subscribers.

According to the new image, New Platinum broadband subscribers at Plans 3479 and up will be able to experience unlimited data as opposed to monthly caps starting at 100GB. The ‘unlimited’ data mentioned is still being governed by the telco’s Fair Use Policy (FUP).

Meanwhile, Globe has split up data caps for both LTE Broadband and DSL Broadband subscriptions, thereby increasing the monthly data allocations for wired DSL subscribers when compared against the monthly caps we first reported. To give you a quick idea on how it will be, here’s the chart:

Perks and additional features bundled with the DSL plans, as first unveiled on our report a few months ago, were seen to be still intact. The change was apparently done last April 30, according to the image filename hosted on their website. The plans are intended for new subscribers, and may be offered to old subscribers in case of an upgrade or re-contract.

    25 mbps (3749) 3.5gb DAILY allowance (4gb sabi ng globe csr) once consumed capped to 30% original speed – so 7.5mbps unlimited
    same lang with other platinum plans
    (according yan sa online csr at globe store csr)
    1. 25mbps – unli 7.5 mbps
    2. 50 mbps – unli 15 mbps
    3. 100 mbps – unli 30 mbps
    4. 150 mbps – unli 45 mbps
    * sa mga high end subdivision lang ang platinum dsl ng globe
    * saan mo nabasa from 25 mbps to 1 mbps king?

    Mobile Network providers are the only ones with capped data (except for PLDT ultera and Wireless internet). PLDT DSL and Fibr plans have no data cap. Throttling is present especially for P2P and torrenting but there is no data cap. Slow internet is caused by problems with the line or with the network (which usually happens once a month during maintenance).

      Agreed. I don’t understand why there is even a data cap for PLDT Ultera. Their logic is 1 GB per day and they give you a Modem with WiFi features. Pathetic. They even say that ULTERA uses a different Network than the ones allocated to SMART. How is it that the Canopy (a decade old Tech) can have UNLIMITED while this piece of crap, LTE device can’t? Not to mention, the speed PLDT is offering is not even LTE standard. FUCKING PATHETIC.

    mahirap ung nasanay ka sa unlimited then magiging capped, i have pldt ultera plan 5mbps speed then throttled to 1.5mbps after reaching 600mb and thats per day. ang hirap nung sisigawan ko yung pinsan ko na “wag kang mg youtube macacapped tyo agad!!!”
    ahahahahaa

    Mag BayanTel nalang kayo at least Unlimited. Sana lang hindi sirain ng Globe kasi na acquired na nila yung Bayantel. Or mag Huawei B593s-22 LTE Router(6,999 PHP) kayo then use Smart LTE SIM then LTE 50(1 Day), LTE 299(1 Week), LTE 995(1 Month). Nakakaabot me 27 Mbps – 35 Mbps Unlimited pa.

    Actually may cap sya… I just called example 25 MBPS ka, ang cap mo 4 GB per day.. exceeding that would result to your speed reduced to 30% of your daily speed..

    So from 25, magiging 7Mbps ka…
