Poll: Who offers the best postpaid plans?

Abe Olandres July 2, 2011 · 2 min read

Listen to article

Xbox and Discord offer new benefits for Game Pass and Nitro members Google announces Pause Point feature OPPO A6s 5G Review ASUS Zenbook S16 (UM5606GA) Review Google adds new video editing tools to Android 17

Been asked about this several times before but could not give a more definitive answer since I have not tried all of the postpaid plans. So I thought why not get everyone’s opinion, especially from those who have been on postpaid for many years.

Our obvious choice is between Sun, Smart and Globe and their respective postpaid plans.

Which carrier offers the most value vis-a-vis the monthly service fee. Meaning, if you pay Php500 MSF, are you also getting Php500 of calls, text and mobile internet hours or do you get more?
Which carrier offers the most flexible plan so you are able to consume your credits any way you want?
Which carrier offers the widest line-up of handsets as freebies? Which one carries the most number of “aspired” handsets? Do they offer more than just cellphones as freebies (like tablets, etc.)?
Which one provides satisfactory or better customer service to postpaid subscribers?
Which one offers more promos, rewards, and loyalty points to their postpaid subscribers over their prepaid subscribers?
From a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the highest, how would you rate your postpaid subscription with your carrier?

I’ve only been a Globe postpaid subscriber because of the iPhone so I can’t really comment about Smart or Sun (although I’ve been contemplating on getting a Smart sub since the only one I have now is the Smart Bro account).

If you’re also a postpaid subscriber, go hit the comments and share your feedback.

pagdating talaga sa signal at customer service… smart ang panalo. ni hindi mo nga matawagan ang kanilang CS dahil wala ka naman talagang problema.

pero ang sun at globe… basag basag ang signal. poor signals. Smart is the best

Jeyem · 15 years ago

SUN!
Plan 600
Unli text and call – 350php
Consumable – 250php
FREE Text to ALL networks – 350

Add On:
20hrs of data per month at 150php for my iPhone4.

I’m a postpaid subscriber for almost 2 years already and I never had a major problem…SUPER SULIT!

mike · 15 years ago

I say the best is still wi-tribe. Good connection. They do not cut my connection even if I am late in paying the bill unlike other telcos. Very quick and easy to call helpdesk and customer service. In just less than a minute you are already connected. Connection is so far sufficient.

I just hope wi-tribe expands on offering mobile internet.

Next favorite is Sun. Good low-cost value.

Globe and Smart are probably the worst. Globe’s mobile internet during daytime is less than 50 kbps. (where’s the HSPA+ that globe is bragging here?). And even if you are in HSPA+ area the speed do not go above 900 kbps.

I say AVOID those products that spend too much advertising and hyping like GLOBE AND SMART.

Igno Rante · 15 years ago

Mobiline Subscriber since birth.

Mike · 15 years ago

Globe is #1 in postpaid. Globe got most of high end subscribers (executives, celebrities, politicians) and quality teen users and most of them are loyal to Globe. Smart & Sun cheap ang dating.

jaybonline · 15 years ago

Globe since 1999. . . the best

Bon · 15 years ago

I’d say Globe is the best in service for Metro Manila. But Smart is still the best for provincial areas. My friend has a beach house in Calatagan. Both signals (Globe & Smart) are strong, but Smart internet (GPRS/3G/4G) is super fast, while Globe internet is super slow (I can connect but I cannot download anything). As for Sun? Well, my wife is on Sun. There are numerous times when she cannot call me (Globe) or even our daughter, which is also on Sun. Their network is mostly busy.

Jhay · 15 years ago

I’d say Globe. They offer the best prices and connectivity for internet subscriptions. Another plus is that most youngsters prefer Globe. One thing I don’t like about Globe is how their after-sales services suck balls.

My ass is on fire.

damn · 15 years ago

Globe-ok ung plans pero ung after sales service/ customer service NEEDS A LOT OF IMPROVEMENT.. They say “your way”, yah solve your problem on your own way..
Sun and smart never tried coz most of my fellaz are globe..
(mukhang di poll to, mukhang hatred bin hehe)

Jologs · 15 years ago

I am a postpaid subscriber of both Smart (since January 2010) and Globe (from 2005 to January 2010, had my line cut in 2010 then reapplied for a new line in January 2011 to get an iPhone 4) and here’s my 2 cents:

Globe – looks really good on paper. Better plans, better handsets, more flexible… but despite that, I hate Globe with a passion and I can say that the only reason why I’m staying with them is because of the iphone. I hate Globe because of the following reasons:

– POORER than POOR customer service. Here are some instances that made me VERY IRATE with them:
—When I got my iPhone, which I ordered online, the SIM was activated after 3 freaking weeks. I was constantly calling the hotline and going to the service center but they couldn’t help me kse yung online transaction daw, third party vendor daw. WTF??? Eh Globe pa rin yun sa mga mata ko e.
—I paid for my iPhone online through my CC in January and UPTO NOW, the charge for around 10K is still floating on my card. Naka-pending charge sa card ko pero di nila kinukuha… after 6 freaking months!!!! And if that wasn’t bad enough, sinisingil pa nila ako sa bill. Ay wow! And as usual nung tinawag ko sa hotline at dinulog ko sa service center, di daw nila alam kse third party pag online. I reresearch pa nila daw. Hay, nakakapagod ang Globe, nakakatuyo ng dugo!

–Globe also has a poor retention program. They only want new subscribers and don’t really care about their existing customers. That’s actually the reason why I left them in 2010 kse they couldn’t give me a good offer after I completed 2 contracts with them.

SMART naman, has good signal, and this carrier has not given me any issue for me to deal with their customer service. Wala kse ako issues sa SMART kaya I’ve never had to call their hotline or go to their service center. At so sobrang panget ng experience ko sa Globe, any carrier looks attractive.

If I have to choose, SMART na lang. I have learned my lesson na bili na lang ako ng unlocked handset kesa matali ako ng contract with a VERY UNSATISFACTORY carrier like GLOBE.

(Hehehehe, obvious na obvious ba na ang sama ng loob ko sa globe?)

Steve Jobs · 15 years ago

Im a Globe Postpaid Subscriber ever since. And i have 3 accounts.

Ratings:

1. Best flexible services offering.
2. Offer most flagship handset.
3. Call Center Hotline 211 sucks very much. My rating would be 0 out of 10. Its so painful to talk to their call center customer service. Not knowledgable.
The best customer service they have is at Talk2Globe Facebook Fan Page. I rate it 10 out of 10 since people who answer there are very knowledgeable in just about any concerns.
4. Loyalty Rewards is bad. They offer more Loyalty points on Prepaid.
5. My rating with Globe Postpaid Services is 9 out of 10. Never have a problem with my billing.

Arvee · 15 years ago

Before, I would say Globe offers the best postpaid service. They have a good line of phones to offer and rates are somewhat above average. But when Globe discontinued their G-Plans and started offering the MySuper Plan, Sun is currently my winner.
Why? It is because of the lock-in period. For me, it’s fine to stay on one phone for a year. But for two years, parang sa bilis ng evolution ng smartphones ngayon eh lumang-luma na agad ako sa phone ko.
And because both Globe and Sun have 24 mos. lock-in period, sa rates nalang nagkakatalo (Sun beats Globe here)

But I have to stick with Globe since majority of my contacts are Globe subscribers.

Sun 8
Globe 8
Smart (I don’t know anyone who has a plan from Smart. Masyado din akong maraming naririnig na horror stories about having a plan from them.)

Mat · 15 years ago

If you forgo the free phone, you won’t be locked in with any globe plan

Welsh · 15 years ago

Im a globe user for more than 10 yrs. Smart user for less than 2 months

Performance rating from 1 to 10, 10 being the highest

GLOBE
> SIGNAL STRENGTH: 10!!! (applicable to MM areas only, provincial areas about 4-5 (Smart leads on provincial areas)
> PLAN OFFERS: 6-8 (Reasonable and competitive)
> CUSTOMER SERVICE: 0-1 (Customer Service of Globe is really bad(based on my experience, lots of empty promises and lack of Customer Service experience)
> RETENTION/LOYALTY REWARDS: 1-3 (offers are not very rewarding at the very least)

SMART
> SIGNAL STRENGTH: 5-6 (applicable to MM areas only, provincial areas 7-8(Smart leads on provincial)
> PLAN OFFERS: 6
> CUSTOMER SERVICE: N.A. (No interaction with Smart’s CS)
> RETENTION/LOYALTY REWARDS: N.A (Did not have the mileage yet, but Smart gave good offers to my cousins with more than 8 years of loyalty)

Bryce · 15 years ago

Sun Unlimited Mobile Internet, Calls, and Texts
Php 999/month. Available phones are LG OPtimus One, X8, Nokia E5, Samsung Galaxy 5. Contract: 24 months

You can also opt for the ‘line only’ plan which costs 799 — no contract.

Here’s the result of the mobile speedtest on my HTC Desire S with plan 999:
http://www.speedtest.net/android/64602302.png

Not bad for browsing, downloading apps and mp3s. :)

I like the sun shops. Friendly sila.

Amao · 15 years ago

one contract three phones 999 sun cellular… sulit kasi yung isang phone 10k messages(sun – sun), while the other phone 24 hrs call time(sun -sun), while the last one average…. sulit na para sa akin toh… pero mabilis mawalan ng signal kesa yung sa ibang network…

MyMaria · 15 years ago

Wait, I almost forgot to give my ratings…

Globe – 8/10
Smart – 9/10
Sun – 8/10

Sun is super “sulit” even if you get just their Plan 350. My Smart Addict Plan 800 is also sulit for all my internet needs. Although last month I had to pay 800 for the plan even though I only sent 49 text messages and made one lousy phone call for P6! Guess I forgot I had a Smart line :( And my Globe 1799 plan is overkill really because I never get to consume even just half of it. Damn the iPhone! Tee hee…

I don’t see any reason to go beyond Plan 350 for Sun and the handsets they give you for free with the plan is good enough for a backup phone anyway. Sun has a number of dead spots in my town, which I find really weird. Maybe its their coverage. On the other hand, Globe has awesome choices of handsets but what’s a [smart]phone really if you can’t use it for internet? (Like I said, Globe 3G here sucks.) Their “customizable” plan offering is a great marketing strategy. Good job there! Smart has only a few choices when it comes to plans and handsets. But for me, their internet service is excellent. So there.

As for customer service, I give up on Globe because I don’t think they have adept CSRs (on their hotline) and it’s really frustrating having to talk to them… after waiting 30 minutes just to speak to one. They must do something about this. I don’t have much concern with Smart’s services and I hardly ever call their hotline, which is a good thing ‘coz it means I don’t have any problems really with my Smart line. The same goes for Sun Cellular. I don’t have to call their CSRs for any concerns as I don’t have any.

Smart sends me quite a lot of rewards but honestly couldn’t care less for free siomai from Chowking. ^_^ I haven’t been with Globe for a very long time to experience any loyalty rewards. Same goes for Sun Cellular.

adam · 15 years ago

I am a subscriber of Sun Cellular.

MyMaria · 15 years ago

I am a postpaid subscriber of the 3 networks.
I had a globe postpaid line back in 1999 when I went to college in Cebu but eventually lost my phone and disconnected the line.
Became a Smart subscriber since 2000 simply because it was the only network that had a wireless center in my hometown.. And still am subscribed to my Addict mobile consumable plan (never needing to switch to Smart Gold because Internet would then be charged on top of the bill if I do so instead of being deducted to my plan).
Got a Globe Fully Loaded plan because of the iphone4 last year but cannot give up my Smart’s line because Globe 3G here sucks big time and I need Smart’s super fast mobile Internet when I’m out and about or when my broadband DSL fails (I use my phone as a modem then)…
Also got Sun postpaid in 2008 due to peer pressure (JK!) but it really is awesome for an unlimited plan only for 350. I plan to keep it just the same.

gelogs · 15 years ago

Sun Unlimited Mobile Internet, Calls, and Texts
Php 999/month with free LG Optimus One. Another phone available under this plan is the Samsung Galaxy Ace but with 3.5k cashout.

I’ve been a Globe subscriber four years ago – didn’t like it – “Hindi sulit.” It is now my 7th or 8th year on Sun. It’s that long so I’m not really sure. :D

kimkae77 · 15 years ago

SUN..lakas ng signal dito sa Bulacan..unli text na ,unli calls pa..

jm · 15 years ago

for services

GLOBE = 10
Sun = 7
Smart = 5

for retention

Smart = 10
Globe = 6
Sun = 5

csseyah · 15 years ago

Mine is SUN Cellular postpaid.. I got the Plan 450 with the IDEOS phone.. It’s nice for me…

SUN Cellular Postpaid
Plan 350:
Call and Text Unlimited SUN-2-SUN
plus 250 free text to other networks

Brein · 15 years ago

Hey everyone i just want to express my complain here in globe. Kasi nung nag apply ako ng plan 299, yung pasa load at tawag 236 is subtracted from my credit. But now they subtract it “ABOVE MY PLAN” without even notifying me. Globe hari ng postpaid. Hari din nang hidden charges.

P.S. hindi ako ahente ng smart and sun. I am globe prepaid forever, pero i hate their postpaid now.

Steve Jobs · 15 years ago

If you are mySuperPlan 299 then all your Share-a-load would be on top of your monthly service fee.

If you already consume your 299 consumable, then all your call and text will be charged on top of your monthly service fee.

sylv3rblade · 15 years ago

Any other service you apply for (unlitxt, unlisurf, unlicall, pass-load) that’s not indicated in the terms of your account is always put on top of your bill.

Brein · 15 years ago

nope its not the case when i applied. They changed it without informing me.

Even if my credit is not all used up, they will charge the tawag 236 above your plan which sucks. I think they charge most promos to make more money above my plan.

Steve Jobs · 15 years ago

For regular text and call lang ang 299 consumable. If you register or use any promo deals its on top of your monthly service fee.

If you want pure consumable na lahat. Lahat ng activity mo ikakaltas talaga then dapat Tipid Plan kinuha mo. Kasi its like prepaid.

milanaorly · 15 years ago

Sum: Score 10
unli Call and Surf 999
unli Call and txt 350
super mura. im planning to apply nextmonth

globe? smart? nahh. wag na

milanaorly · 15 years ago

i mean sun cell

SashaFierce · 15 years ago

Definitely Sun. Big savings!

Jon · 15 years ago

I’ll say Globe. Flexible plans, nice phone offers (didnt get a phonr from them though), and good customer service. Signal reception can be a bit spoty in some areas, but it is tolerable.

Sun, well, really cheap and interesting offers. Kaso natrauma na ko sa prepaid service. Was using prepaid ng sun before going postpaid with globe. Sun had really poor signal reception at my workplace. I couldt make or receive call and texts reliably. Kelangan pa bumaba ng building.

Smart? Nah. Too expensive plans. Sucky phones. Confusing pa yung plans. Also, most of my friends and contacts are on Globe or Sun. Why bother. Data plan pa nga lang 1200 ata? While Globe offers it at 999 ata? Tsk.

Jacob Castro · 15 years ago

Reliability and signal strength are the most important considerations to me when it comes to mobile phone service, including access to HSDPA for data. For these reasons, my SMART postpaid beats my GLOBE postpaid. I have an iPhone 4 on Globe and a Blackberry on Smart. My iPhone 4 is freaking slowwwwwwwwww on the Globe network, it crawlsssssss most of the time.

jose · 15 years ago

I use Smart for my primary line. Retention program is good, as well as customer service.

I also use a Sun Plan 350 for my secondary line because of the cheap rates and unlimited sun to sun calls and texts. customer service is not that good, though.

vin · 15 years ago

Globe :)

xx · 15 years ago

Sun has the most value for your money and cheapest especially on unlimited offers. They have the cheapest plans and have least requirements for their cheaper offerings. No wonder maraming kumagat sa sun.

When it comes to promos and flexibility, Globe. Andaming pakulo parati. Like this new promo:
http://site.globe.com.ph/international/super_us_direct?sid=Tg8FyMuxpRcAAAOfhecAAAEVe
o ha? outgoing calls to US na lang kulang at para ka na ring may VoIP sa celphone mo.
They have a wide range of unlimited offers to choose from though they don’t come as cheap as Sun’s offerings. Plus you can change them every month.

Smart has the least attractive postpaid plans but their coverage is superb.

Pangit nga lang loyalty rewards parati ng Globe pero expected ko na na di nila ibibigay yung mga handsets nila na madalas nag-a-out of stock.

JKisaragi · 15 years ago

I have the SUN Postpaid Plan 350 and I have to admit that my use for it is very limited. Its very purpose is to contact my classmates, a majority of which are on SUN as well. Other than that, wala na. I still have to convince my sister and cousins to get a secondary phone for SUN. LOL.

Aside from signal strength (and a few unsolicited texts from unknown people offering a lot of stuff I didn’t sign-up for), I have no other issues with SUN. I still can’t believe that years have past and their network signal is still that weak here in Laguna (San Pedro lang ha. That’s just beside Muntinlupa which is part of Metro Manila already).

I really want to subscribe to Globe’s MySupersurf Plan 999 and get me a Blackberry 9780 to go with it. Hope someone can share their experience with this plan. :)

baste · 15 years ago

ang sagot dito ay…. NON OF THE ABOVE!!!!

jojo · 15 years ago

tumpak haha

jm · 15 years ago

for me Globe is the best in postpaid offers. Tama nga sila globe is #1 in postpaid. Sobrang dming choices ng plan, flexible ang mga services, daming line up ng phones. Kaso ang problema over priced sila sa lahat from services to handsets. Imagine 350 call and txt na sa sun samantla sa globe 350 unlitxt lang at almost 700 call and txt. Eto pa mas mahal ang cash out ng globe sa lower plan nila compara sa market or open lined price ng mga phones. Example nalang sony ericsson xperia 27990 cash price sa market pero sa plan 299 ng globe 34k+ ang cash out. Isa BB torch 26000 sa market sa plan 299 ng globe 30k+ lastly SGS2 27800 cash price sa market pero sa plan 299 ng globe 29790 ang cash out. Yan lng problema sa knila pls sir yuga inform globe regarding sa overpricing nila ng handset. Lakas ng loob na ilagay sa ads nila you can the handset at lower plan with *DISCOUNTED PRICE DAW!*.

Sun isnt good for me, I was going to get a plan for the net but I found out that the speed slowed down. smart is the most deceiving provider. Globe for me is the winner because it is really fast.

Smart will slow down your speed to 384 kbps even if you subscribed to 2 mbps. they really are deceiving.

Richmond · 15 years ago

SUN Cellular PLAN 350 is the best.
We are still planning to migrate our BROADBAND from GLOB WiMax to SBW My WiFi.

Jake · 15 years ago

SUN – 9 out of 10
– on-net unlimited calls and text.
– very affordable plans
– limited network signal in select provinces

GLOBE – 8 out 10
– flexible option postpaid plan
– wide range of service offers/promos
– network coverage is somewhat limited
nationwide

SMART – 7 out of 10
– network coverage is superb
– satisfactory customer service
– postpaid plans are not flexible nor attractive

Angel · 15 years ago

My first choice is SUN, pinaka sulit. Compared with my Globe if i use them both calling and texting other networks using the regular plans mas lower ang bill ng Sun.

nonoy · 15 years ago

Sun Cellular Free Phones Plan 350 + sun broadband 799
costumer service: thumbs down as in bokya!

chinitoguy · 15 years ago

I have tried all of Smart, Globe and Sun’s postpaid plans. My answer varies on the different questions. Here are my answers:

Which carrier offers the most value vis-a-vis the monthly service fee. Meaning, if you pay Php500 MSF, are you also getting Php500 of calls, text and mobile internet hours or do you get more?

ANSWER: Sun Cellular is the hands down winner. Sun offers the most value-friendly offers. I used to subscribe at Sun’s plan 350 and guess what – I only get Php 350 on my bill! Now I upgraded it to Plan 450 with 20 hours mobile internet plus I added a Suntel wireless landline. All of these add-ons and I pay below Php 900. Sulit talaga!

Which carrier offers the most flexible plan so you are able to consume your credits any way you want?

ANSWER: I think Globe. They offer the most flexible plans in which you can change it monthly. For example a subscriber can subscribe to plan 299 with 599 call and text unlimited for this month. next month the subscriber can change it on 999 with unlimited internet. A subscriber can change and even mix their plans monthly. Cool!

Which carrier offers the widest line-up of handsets as freebies? Which one carries the most number of â€œaspiredâ€ handsets?

ANSWER: I think its a toss-up between Smart and Globe. Globe exclusively Samsung Galaxy S2 powered by Android OS and Apple iPhone 4 powered by Apple’s iOS. Smart on the other hand exclusively offers HTC Mozart powered by Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7. When it comes to how many handsets it can offer it would be Globe. The problem is AVAILABILITY. Smart has more available handsets than Globe. The problem is handsets offered by Globe and Smart are exclusive to them.

Which one provides satisfactory or better customer service to postpaid subscribers?

ANSWER: Hands down winner is GLOBE. Globe doesn’t have satisfactory or better customer service but they are the BEST. Enought said.

Which one offers more promos, rewards, and loyalty points to their postpaid subscribers over their prepaid subscribers?

ANSWER: Both Globe and Sun has offers the best promos but I think Globe’s rewards and loyalty program is still the best. My brother is a loyal postpaid subscriber since 2004 and when he tries to put his postpaid line under contract again he got a Blackberry Curve at plan 999. Cool!

From a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the highest, how would you rate your postpaid subscription with your carrier?

ANSWER:
Score – 10 for Sun. Why? When it comes to postpaid all of us would agree that we are looking for VALUE FOR MONEY above anything else. Sun proved that when they surpassed 1 Million postpaid subscribers this year. How about perks, promos, handset offers, coverage, etc should I consider that too? Yes. But Sun also has good promos, handset offers and even their nationwide coverage is also good. I would rather buy an unlocked iPhone 4, Samsung Galaxy S2 rather than to tie-up in a contract for 2 years. I would rather prefer a no contract deal because I have the power to discontinue it anytime I want if the service sucks. Right?

8 for Globe – I’m quite disappointed with Globe’s service lately. I find their new postpaid plans misleading. Imagine a subscriber gets a plan 299. Wow! Sulit! Pero in order to be really sulit the subscriber has to have an add on on call and text unlimited for 599. Wow! That almost 900 already. Compared to Sun, my plan is 450 with 27/7 call and text unlimted to sun and 20 hours mobile internet with free texts to other networks plus a landline that costs around 250. So 450+250 equals 700 only. Saan ka na? Globe or Sun? I have a Globe prepaid though but never again will i subscribe to Globe Postpaid. Globe by the way has the best customer service.

6 for Smart- Smart has limited postpaid offers. they do have unlimited calls and texts but that’s on top of your plan. I currently subscribed to Smart Gold Lite’s plan 500. Why? Smart still has the best coverage in the coutry. I use my Smart Gold for 3G browsing on my Samsung Galaxy S2 phone. It has the best connection. Smart must improve its postpaid services in order to catch up with Globe and Sun.

I like this post.. thumbs up!

jilsy · 13 years ago

well said.. honest to goodness analysis &experience.
consumers must WIN

Cliff Rosario · 15 years ago

Been with Globe Postpaid since college days…
I’ve been very fortunate to have Globe people to work with me during those times I had issues with them..

I almost had a postpaid plan with Smart but their customer service team in SM Megamall wasn’t really that accommodating when I was asking for application requirements so I decided not to deal with them anymore…

Globe have been pretty consistent in following up with me whenever I had issues and their continuous effort to improve their support via online or phone.

Sun… their prepaid for me is very confusing.. So I kinda avoided their postpaid.

Wendell Tan · 15 years ago

Globe Gmix Plan 800 with 250 monthly rebate
Sun broadband wifi 650
Sun prepaid text unlimited 150

GlobePostpaidSub · 15 years ago

Globe has a really bad postpaid retention program. For example after your 2 year lock-up period, the phones that they will offer you are very limited. If you want the iPhone4, you will have to shell out just as much cash as new subscribers – what kind of incentive is that? The Galaxy SII is not even being offered, even if you are willing to shell out the cash which I was.

jhay · 15 years ago

I’m just on my 1st week of being on globe supersurf 999 plan. So far, so good.

jake · 15 years ago

my friends and i are on Sun & Globe.

i’m on Sun postpaid and i can say it’s my favorite since MOST of my friends are Sun subscribers. i have unlimited calls & texts and it also has consumable credits so i can also text from other networks.

i also on Globe postpaid (MySuperCircle Plan) and it also has unlimited calls & texts (only to Globe subscribers though) but for me it’s enough since some of my friends are also on Globe.

Globe offers a LOT of flexible plans so you can choose what suits your needs. most importantly you & your contacts should be on the same network so you can maximize all the unlimited services :)

nexusboy · 15 years ago

Sun Cellular Plan 350!
and Sun Call and Surf 999!

povillo · 15 years ago

yes, SUN plan350 for me Unli call and text. My whole family have it. I do have a current smart plan500 but seldom use it,just have to wait for the contract period to expire and i will terminate it.

JunAlquis · 15 years ago

while I’m a loyal Smart postpaid user I really have to say it’s Globe because of the more choices you have not to mention more handsets to choose from and freebies

LG Promo Victim · 15 years ago

Hands down winner would be
Sun cellulars’ Call and Surf 999
Unlimited calls and text
Unlimited mobile internet
Plus Sun has a very fast hsdpa/3.5g connection
And with the merger with Smart, hopefully the unlimited calls and text will include smart network(smart, red, tnt)

Thats why Globe is doing its hardest to block that merger

LG Promo Victim · 15 years ago

and let me add that the call&surf 999
comes with an android handset, you can be a walking hotspot, or just insert the sim in a usb 3g dongle, in a mifi device or 3g tablet device
