Expect 1Gbps fiber-to-home from Globe for Php9,499 this November

Globe also plans to offer 1Gbps fiber to home connection this November 2015, according to leaked documents we obtained earlier. This is part of the Platinum Home Broadband Plan that Globe is offering to select villages and condominiums.

The historical chart above shows the initial speed offering for fiber when Globe started rolling it out in 2014. It also shows how the speeds are increasing and the monthly service fees are decreasing.

According to the same documents that we got, Platinum Home Broadband Plans will start at 50Mbps for Php2,499USD 43INR 3,610EUR 41CNY 310 (see story here).

There’s also a 200Mbps plan for Php4,499USD 77INR 6,499EUR 73CNY 558 and a 500Mbps line for Php7,499USD 128INR 10,833EUR 122CNY 931 if you think 1Gbps is too much for your needs.

Take note those that the 1Gbps fiber connections are currently offered in limited areas (see complete list here).

Let’s get one thing straight, this is a bunch of BS from Globe. I’m currently subscribed to their home LTE plan and the connection is beyond terrible. I don’t know how many times I’ve fought with a customer service rep but what else can I do? My contract is still locked and the pre-termination fees are a highway robbery. Come December, it’s bye bye Globe for me. Good riddance!

A friend of mine from pasig had FTTH from Converge ICT Solutions. He said that converge do offer fiber to the home connection, but there are limited areas in metro manila. Sad, no fiber to the home for me in Cainta… Website http://www.convergeict.com
