글로브와 페이스북은 6개월 전 파트너십을 맺어 모든 글로브/TM 가입자에게 무료 FB 서비스를 제공했으며, 마크 저커버그에 따르면 이는 필리핀에서 인터넷과 데이터를 사용하는 사람 수를 두 배로 늘렸습니다.
전 세계 Facebook 사용자 중 1% 이상이 Globe에서 Free Facebook을 사용하고 있다고 주장됩니다(2014년 3월 평균 일일 활성 사용자 8억 200만 명).
하지만 지난 주부터 Globe는 구독자들에게 무료 Facebook 서비스가 4월 30일에 만료된다고 문자 메시지를 보내고 있습니다. 이 서비스는 처음에 3개월만 제공되었으며, 이후 추가로 3개월 연장되었습니다.
It seems like Globe has no intentions of extending it once more. Once the free FB service ends in April 30, subscribers will be charged the normal data rates.
ay dapat na mawala na ito.
This is the reason why globe’s internet speed dropped and they had to strictly implement their FUP.. there were literally thousands of fb groups created which catered to downloads of all kinds..be it music, movies, anime, even software..they simply zipped the files, split them and uploaded them one by one to the fb group..the users could then download them for free since the files used a facebook server…tedious yes, since you had to join the split files but still, free. And pinoys LOVE free.
Do you know how much money. This will cost my Filipino girlfriend?
999 pesos (around $22.5) will give her a month of unlimited internet on Smart prepaid with decent speeds. Don’t believe her if she says more than that.
It should be on April 30.
So hindi na ipapa-implement ng Globe ang FUP na 1gb/day or 3gb/month katulad ng Smart na kahit sinasabi nila 1.5gb/day pero di naman pinapatupad? Pa free FB pa kasing nalalaman pati tuloy kami naka-unli data plan affected. Sana ibalik na sa dati! 2g ng Globe opera mini lang nagloload pag chrome na gamit mo 15mins na di pa nagbubukas kahit espn.com lang
Sabi nga ng kilala ko:
1. Pampabigat sila sa data network.
2. Tama lang para mabawasan ang jejemon sa fb.
Free pa ba sa smart?
Walang feee FB sa Smart kya puro nakaGlobe ang mga jejemon.
my free fb at twitter yung Talk ‘N Text
Bagal naman ng free FB, at may advert ng promo ng globe. no such thing as free lunch.
I hope this will improve globe’s internet speed
Now that they have harvested all of your contacts and sold the data, they no longer need to offer you free facebook anymore. They cashed in
It was a futile experiment. As if may pera ang mga Pinoy pambili sa mga ads ng FB no?
