Recently, Globe has been sending out reminders via SMS to some of their subscribers about the Fair Usage Policy that they are enforcing. A number of our readers have sent us reports about the daily bandwidth allocation and throttling regulation.
The FUP basically provides an allowance of 1GB per day or 3GB per month, whichever comes first. Once the allocation is used up, subscribers will moved to their 2G network. That means you still get “unlimited” mobile internet but it will be slower.

This FUP applies to all surfing promos and data plans for Globe postpaid and Tattoo Lifestyle Sticks.
It does not cover surfing charged with regular browsing rates (Php5/15 minutes) and those using PowerSurf.
This mechanism is designed to reduce the speeds of only the 3% of users who are responsible for generating large volumes of traffic in Globe’s network.
You can read the full details of Globe’s Fair Use Policy here.

“3% of users who are responsible for generating large volumes of traffic ”
only 1GB a day is Large volume? Thats just a few youtube videos a day!
The average person is streaming video, streaming music, updating and downloading apps on smart phones/computer updates etc that far reaches over 1GB a day
Globe should be ashamed, the government needs to step in and force regulate the telcos

my average usage is 5-7gb per month. im a heavy user always on LTE/H+. impact i have to charge my s4 for 2-3 times a day. exaggerated naman yung few youtube pra ubusin ang 1gb in a day. ok lang sken ung capping as long as bibilis ung serbisyo nla esp sa gabi na mabagal tlga.

@Ryan, nice try do you work for globe? Only 7GB a month?
Average data used on a 1080p 5min youtube video is 62MB Thats for only 5 min! So a 1 hour movie a day, or a few hour movies, plus music, software updates , email attachments and more is far over 1GB a day.
I rarely ever torrent and I average 250 to 300GB a month
Ryan says:
🥉 Bronze🏆1
not connected with them. 1080p will take yrs to load even on LTE. sabi nga ni phonebuddy ma tamang connection pra mag DL ng 1080p.
So kung 250-300gb ka per month number 1 ka siguro sa 3% na abusado. Dpat nga lang icap ang mga tulad mo. or lipat ka nalng ng smart pra 1.5gb ka lang per month.

I think its fine although those who were used to streaming videos using their phones will greatly be affected. Again, what 3 gigs can do varies by use. 3 gigs of audio streaming is more than enough. 3 gigs of document sharing is too much. 3 gigs of downloading apps is just enough.
GTFO says:
🌱 Noobs🏆1
I use about 3GB to 5GB of data a night. I download a lot of stuff off the net not just for personal use but also for work related bullshit. I pay my fucking bills right in order use the “UNLIMITED” LTE connection. ABUSADO MUCH? I think not! People use it differently NOT JUST FOR THAT FACEBOOK shit. Now I know this retarded Telecom company is not for people who do serious work online. Target market yata nila mga OLOL. I’ll stay away from this provider after I’m done with my stupid contract.

tama lang..gamitin ng tama ang mga serbisyong “unli”. mobile yan so you’re not suppose to download 1080p movies on the go. may tamang internet connection para dyan. pero sana naman ay matupad ng globe ang promised speed nila.
crackinthewall says:
🌱 Noobs🏆1
Ano pang silbi ng LTE at 1080p screens ng phones namin kung hindi namin pwedeng gamitin to the fullest? In two years time, magkakaroon din for sure ng 4K screen sa phone. Masyadong mababa ang 3GB na monthly limit. Halos lahat nagiging cloud service na ngayon, streaming, photo/data backup, app updates, etc. so napakadaling ma-reach yung limit na yan. It doesn’t help na mas mabilis pa ang LTE ngayon sa average DSL connection. Dapat pag sinabi nilang unlimited, unlimited talaga or kung gusto nila ng may data cap, yung reasonable naman pati yung throttling ng speed. Hindi yung 2G agad. Kung hindi talaga kaya ng network nila na lagi na lang may upgrade, bucket pricing na lang gawin nila per GB.
knvz says:
🌱 Noobs🏆1
ikaw na nagsabing “unli”. kaya nga unli kasi unlimited. pano mo itatama ang pag gamit ng serbisyong “unlimited” kung “limitado”. may tamang internet connection para dun? kahit na 9999p pa yan kung unli pwedeng idownload. “UNLI” nga e!
Kunsel says:
🌱 Noobs🏆1
Anong kalokohan na naman ng globe yan? “Blazing fast” daw ang LTE, ilang streamed videos lang yan tapos magiging GPRS/EDGE speed na ang phone mo? Hindi na sulit ang 999 unlisurf nila kung strictly enforced na yan.

Average ko na un 3-5GB per month. wala pang 1GB per day or 3GB per month pero mabagal na net ko. pwde nila i-enforce to kung pareparehas signal strengh nila sa lahat ng sulok (kht ng metro manila) ng pinas para “Fair” talaga.
Anyway 1.5GB lng nmn sa SMART per month (Unli Data Plan), beyond that, babagal na din.
Sana lng meron paraan para malaman ang remaining GB per day or month na official record galing sa kanina, hnd yung galing sa 3rd party application or built-in sa phone, malaki kc ang difference.

After you’ve consumed 1.5 GB on smart, you’re downgraded to HSPA. On Globe, you’re on 2G/EDGE.

Wala naman ding matinong lilipatan kasi may capping din sa Smart na mas mababa pa kung iimplement talaga nila. Yung Sun naman, mabilis lang between 1-6AM. Dati okay siya kahit anong oras, ngayon hindi ka na makapagbukas ng Youtube kahit 244p lang pag tanghali.

haha says:
🌱 Noobs🏆1
para saan pa’t nagyayabang sila ng LTE at iba kung ililimit lang din nila, kalokohan!!!
What says:
🌱 Noobs🏆1
That’s why its called unlimited because you have the freewill to browse and the reason we get LTE is because of the speed. I think it’s unreasonable if they are going to downgrade the connection. It means that the LTE is not reliable and not stable enough to handle the traffic. Might as well not offer LTE if you can’t give your customers what is due to them. It’s not called LTE, it’s called a rip off. It’s like getting an expensive Nike shoes with the quality of a replica.
crackinthewall says:
🌱 Noobs🏆1
No, it’s like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street. :p
Okay lang naman na may cap kaso dapat dun lang sa totoong heavy user lang. Hindi pa naman considered na heavy user ang 10GB considering kaya siyang ma-reach ng walang torrent o r anything related sa piracy so paano pa kaya yung 3GB lang. Legit use lang, ubos na yung 10GB, kulang pa.
kalokohan says:
🌱 Noobs🏆1
Para daw sa mas magandang serbisyo! Bakit kailangan subcriber ang mag adjust para sa network capacity ng GLOBOBO. Dapat sila ang mag upgrade para mapabilis at tumaas ang speed ng data services nila. Kaya nga nag unli data plan dahil free LTE at uncapped daw. Pero bakit biglang 3gb? Legal ba ito?
Kalokohan says:
🌱 Noobs🏆1
Mas ok pa sa Smart kahit 1.5g limit / month throttled lang to 3G speeds. Unlike Globe, magiging 2g speed haha :)) Pero teka, may naka experience ma ba talaga dito ng throttled connection ng Globe? Panakot lang yata yan e lol :)) ma try nga hehe

bobby says:

Naka-Smart ako, kaya hindi ko masyadong gets itong policy ng Globe. Meron cap na 1GB/day or 3GB/month para sa postpaid users, pero it DOES NOT COVER regular browsing rates. So you mean sa Globe, naka-postpaid ka and yet you’ll subscribe pa sa promos? Aren’t promos supposedly for prepaid users?
crackinthewall says:
🌱 Noobs🏆1
Ano pang silbi ng postpaid kung wala din namang advantage over prepaid? Sa prepaid, I can still keep my old number basta hindi totally mag-expire ang load. Free phones? Depende sa phone na gusto mo, madalas mas okay pa din bumili ng unlocked phones tapos prepaid na lang.
Promos are for all subscribers pero ang nangyayari, madalas puro sa prepaid ang promos. Sa totoo lang dapat mas madami silang promos for postpaid subscribers kasi, kami, monthly magbabayad at sisingilin. Minsan pa nga, sobrang shocking ng bill sa Globe. E ang prepaid? Pwedeng lumipat at any time to Smart ng walang termination fee. Buti nga ngayon, may bundles na ang Smart at Globe na available for postpaid users kasi kahit papaano, nasusulit yung bayad namin.

SMART’s WiMAX and canopies are now moved to the PLDT myBRO brand. That canopy of yours uses Smart’s HSPA+ network to connect to the internet (which is the same for phones connected to their network). I think 15 GB per month is a lot better than 3 GB.
entoyini says:

@Yusuf
Thanks. I think I got confused with FUPs because I was a globe user before with 800mb/day FUP.Which i think is better than 15GB.

Yusuf says:
🥉 Bronze🏆1
FYI on postpaid, Globe has a cap of 3 GB whilst Smart has 1.5 GB. On Globe, you’re downgraded to 2G SPEEDS. On Smart, you can still have HSPA+. About prepaid on the other hand, Globe has a cap of 800 MB/day whilst Smart does NOT (unlimited LTE, that is). After reading this, I think you’ve decided who’s the better choice. Live more.
Sinned says:

VERY TRUE!!!
now i know what to do at the end of my contract.
At Smart, pay only P1,000 for unlisurf (intended for heavy user, no limit or capping). kung alam ko lng na sa walang capping sa Freedom Plan ng Smart, sana nag Smart nlng ako.

Im a Globe Postpaid subscriber with Unlidata as combo. Pansin ko lang na mas mabagal ung internet ko nung lumipat ako sa Iphone 5s kumpara dun sa Note 2 ko considering na LTE pa yung Iphone 5s? San kaya yung problem? sa Phone or sa Net?
Thank you in advance.
xer says:
🌱 Noobs🏆1
I would say it’s the phone. Iphone is more on network hungry than androids. My officemate has the same problem. GS4 vs. Iphone 5, both on globe network @ the same location (4g location). I can multitask and do a lot of online stuff, surf, stream, download stuff while he is trying to pull up a youtube video.
This might be with the phone, yet again it can also be with the network. But you can take into consideration the phones cores, you are comparing a dual core(Iphone 5s) to a quad core (note 2)even with just a 3g connection it will outperform the Iphone. Android phones (most of them) can perform better since they go through a lot of innovations, just check out Samsung’s number of models for just one line or series of phone. I can say for sure that my phone works very well even if I have just 2 bars of signal on LTE than with an Iphone that has full bar on LTE.
80% it’s the phone, 20 % other stuff
About the topic, Yes Globe suxx, it’s not called Unlimited if there is a cap, they should change their plan to “LIMITED”

Currently I subscribe to LTE unli 995 and for the past 4 days I already consumed 2.24 Gig And I haven’t experiencing throttling down to 3G. And when I renewed my contract with smart I did not sign document regarding FUP unlike when I first sign my unli data plan 1500 (this is 3g) two years ago, they apply FUP with limit of 1.5 gig per month. But now I did not sign any agreement for monthly usage limit.

Dear Yugatech, please clarify where you saw the “3GB/month” data cap. This might be misleading a lot of your readers here. I’ve been reading up on Globe’s FUP (wap.globe.com.ph/fairusepolicyfaqs) and Smart’s FUP (Google: SMART Fair Use Policy) and could not find your stated “3GB/month Fair Usage Policy.”
Also, it might be worth mentioning in your blog that for both Globe and Smart, the ‘unlimited’ pertains to ‘mobile browsing’ and not to ‘unlimited download’ – because that is a totally different story and Both companies are getting flak for the FUP, which was really imposed by the NTC. I ask you to please add more clarity to differentiate this on your blog post and avoid misleading our fellow mobile data consumers.

It has been removed. I was able to access the website the day I received the message and it really showed the 3gb/month limit.
I know wimax 512kpbs (795 php) is 1gb a day, 15gb a month

Don’t bother with their DSL. Ironically it’s prone to signal disturbances than Wimax.

Smart will always be faster than Globe. Smart many sites scattered all over the country, they even have a list of HSPA and LTE sites at their website.

Globe may be having second thoughts on implementing this based on the initial response. Also the URL is inaccessible. HAHA!

You can try checking the navigation bar above or the links below to find what you’re searching for. “
Sendo says:

Once I got the message I spent like 2 hours berating them on it. They can’t just put up that limit since when I signed the contract for my plan, there wasn’t anything that pertained to any FUP at all.
I have a copy of my plan contract here and unless if they made a new contract and forged my signature, I’m not buying their BS.
Furthermore, most android phones have DATA monitoring. Just with FB alone, you’ll hit 3GB in a week especially if you are fond of looking at the pictures of your friends.
That’s not mentioning VoIP from Line, WeChat, Viber etc.
