So I looked at how Globe does their capping for unlimited mobile internet (SuperSurf) and found out that their Fair Use Policy has a somewhat similar strategy. Though this time, it’s 800MB per day.
Was wondering at first why they did it on a daily basis instead of monthly then realized that there’s no 30-day SuperSurf for prepaid (just for postpaid).
An 800MB daily cap translates to 24GB per month (30 days) so that seems reasonable. I guess their tagline “Walang Metro” only applies to the time-based not not really the bandwidth.
However, unlike Smart’s Fair Use Policy which throttles you down to a slower speed, Globe’s SuperSurf will totally disconnect you to their network when you reach the daily limit. You can go back and surf again the following day, when your 800MB quota will be refreshed.
ginagawang tanga ng globe ang mga tao
Misleading sila. Kung magadvertise sila ‘no limits’ ‘unlimited surfing’ daw. Yun pla my 800mb limit. Paano mo mae-enjoy ang 50 pesos mo kung ganon? Wla pang klahating araw di kna mkpg-search. Anong silbi ng tagline nilang ‘Live without limits’???? Mga manloloko.
@Zacky Perez ang baho ng ngalangala mo ha…
Kung gagamit kayo ng Internet using portables dongles, use Sun Broadband Wireless instead. Sa Sun Broadband Wireless kasi mas tiwala ako when it comes to broadband sticks dahil matagal bago ma-reach ang quota. Wala namang sinabi ang Globe Tattoo sticks nila eh dinaan lang nila kayo sa ads nilang napakaganda pero di kagandahan ang services. Kung loyal kayo sa Globe then stick to their broadband para hindi kayo naaabala sa bandwith quota.
1. not limited; unrestricted; unconfined
2. boundless; infinite; vast
3. without any qualification or exception; unconditional.
you don’t advertise it as unlimited if there’s going to be a condition.
BLAH…BLAH… ang advertising nga naman makapanloko lang….
Kasali rin ba ang mga Postpaid subcribers ng Supersurf Plan 999 dito sa 800MB cap?
Mga T@nga wag na kayo gumamit kung ganyan ang sasabihin niyo mas maganda toh kapag naglalaro ka ng online games mag globe dsl nalang kayo dun! dun kayo makakapag download ng mga porn na dinadownload niyo walang limit mabilis pa.
Para sa online games at social networks lang talaga itong supersurf kaya sulit sulit…
Hindi ko kayo inaaway sinasabihan ko lang kasi nagsisipag ang globe hindi gaya ng iba dyan ang bagal bagal pero wala namang cap.Globe is better than any network.My opinion.
Ok lang sana may capping pero sana naman hindi putulin ang internet ng ganun nalang.
Bakit hindi nalang nila bagalan yung speed atleast may connection parin.
Yung unlimited atah na sinasabi nila pang facebook lang or text-based na browsing. Kulang pa ba ang budget nila para mag dagdag ng ilang letra sa mga ads nila?
Sinong bobong tao ang walang paki-alam sa mga users ang nag pa implement ng ganitong policy?
Masyadong greedy na talaga mga company ngayon. Hindi na ako nakakasakay sa panahon.
Sana nalang monthly yung capping nila like 100GB per month. Yung 25GB per month na capping nila para naring nag 800mb per day ka. 1month – 31days – 25GB kayo nalang magcalculate mahina ako sa math pero di ako tanga para magkibit balikat nalang.
Sun na gamit ko kahit mabagal sa streaming pero atleast di ako pressured na gumamit ng internet 100 pesos 3 days unlimited atleast hindi naman nawawalang ng net kahit papano. Pag online ang kapitbahay ko nakiki connect nalang ako sa Unsecured Wireless connection niya which is better kasi nakapostpaid siya. Sayang hindi siya addict sa net kaya maaga natutulog. Minsan hindi nagnenet.
Sana magkaroon ng WORLD WAR 3 or 4 at masakop na ang Pilipinas.
ipinaalam ba to sa mga consumers bago ipinatupad? curious lang ako.. sa area kasi namin, globe coverage sucks big time. i can hardly connect, di ako matulungan ng tech support nila tapos madalas ako babaan ng phone ng customer service pag di na nila alam isasagot. nakakdismaya kasi di naman ako yung tipo ng customer na naninigaw, gusto ko lang maayos yung problema ko. i have since switched to DSL para stable yung connection. if i want to use the laptop or my mobile,wifi hotspot na lang. pag wala, e di tiis muna ng walang connection. di naman kailangang laging online. (for me lang po yun ha)
I have been using Supersurf for postpaid but i think wala ata capping sa postpaid and the speed is up to 2.5Mbps…
been downloading this day up to 3.2gb of selected series and movies and going pa din ang downloading and surfing

its not necessarily 24hrs. here’s a tip. lets say you subscribed around lunch so you have until lunch tomorrow before your subscription ends. the 800mb limit ends at exactly 00:00am as per globe time so after that by 00:01am u have fresh 800mb again until lunch the other day. Remember to consume the 800mb cap before 00:00am so you can get the fresh 800mb cap again. all in all you get 1600mb. hope this helps.
nice… i can use the service for 16000mb for 24 hours… I used to download anime episodes and it really bothers me that the globe limits it to 800mb, at least now, i can download up to 30 episodes in a day..strategy is the key… haha….
Unlimited means unlimited. How can you call something unlimited when you limit it at 800MB. That’s false advertising. That won’t happen in Australia and the US. Dito lang sa Pinas nangyayari iyan kasi kibit-balikat lang ang mga consumers dito kapag natatapakan ang kanilang karapatan.
Is Wi-Free a legal service?
