    I was reading some tweets over at twitter.com and many people are having problems “renewing”. this is what i found:

    I hope this prepaid plan reprovision fr @Smartcares for blackberry will be fixed soon. Many bb users are complaining already.

    @SMARTCares I did. Hope you can resolve the renewal and reprovisions of this service. Many of us encounters this problem. Ok sana service.

    @Smartcares don’t want to call customer service and be refunded again, it will take 1 hour of my time, they’re not even worth it. Wtf

    @Smartcares many are victimized already, load disappearing when renewing the service and nothing will happen.

    @Smartcares just ate up my load again because of the bb unli prepaid plan! Renewal of the subscription won’t let you connect anymore!

    @miguel: okay I will do that. thanks for the heads up. hopefully they can act on my problem the same way, or else this is gonna add up to the stress they’ve already given me! lol

    Tell them about the goodwill vas.lam n nila un.ako nung snbi ko un less than an hour nrcv ko n refund ko

  15. Avatar for Jen Jen says:

    @miguel: oh it’s possible? I will try and call tomorrow (I just got off from talking to a CS and I dont think I can wait and talk again that long), hopefully I can get the refund immediately. It’s been 4 days since I reported the problem (and I reported another one now, I bet I’ll have to wait the same length of time for any progress) but they kept on saying they will just update and forward the report, blah blah.

    @jen hello..pls avail of ur refund..ask them for a goodwill VAS and tell them the exact amount deducted from ur load per sim..they can refund any value below 300 per sim card..u will recv ur load less than a day..

    I have the same concerns (load disappearing only to find out it is automatically deducted for the P10/30 mins. browsing charges that I never even used), problem renewing the BB daily package (being able to receive the registration confirmation from 2207 but not being able to receive the blackberry registration msg, hence not being able to use the service although the P50 was already deducted)

    I’ve already used two prepaid sim cards to test out this new promo, have purchased loads amounting to P470 (out of which P150 were the only ones used for successful registration, the rest either being eaten up by the 10/30 mins. charges or being able to register but not being able to use the service). I have spent 45 minutes each day for the past 3 days talking to customer service and making follow ups on my incident reports but to no avail. I think it’s about time I give up. This promo is really a great idea (and I was one of those who are willing to test it out even if I have an existing BlackBerry plan with Globe, thanks to having an extra BB phone), but the service is really disappointing.
