Globe on Tattoo, WiMax and GPON 100Mps

di ko alam eh.pero nagoogle ko minsan un eh

i dont know pero lam ko meron talagang site para malaman kung gaano kabilis ang connection ng internet connection eh.di ko lang alam kung ano.

parehas tayong tatlo.i think globe din ung isang plug it

i agree with you jawo kahit na epal ka.joke. di i think globe rin ung nilaban sa smart dun sa commercial eh.

sa tigin mo paul no kaya ung isang plug it na nilaban sa smart

guys did you see the new commercial of smart?

@Warren

That is right. Sometimes the providers market their plans even in those areas without coverage, it depends on the kind of people you get to talk. Pero babalik din sa kanila yung sisi ng subscriber afterwards. Here in Laguna to where I subscribed, you will be given a briefing on the requirements of your subscription. They will not encourage you if your location is out of their coverage so the decision is yours before you step out of the wireless center.

sure ba un?

oh.good for you.i already call globe aun umayos ang connection but after 1 week history repeat itself.bumalik nanaman siya sa dati.TAE

lol! i’ve read the blog you posted melvin and it really cracks me up…anyway reklamo lang pala ang kulang sa globe eh…when i started to experience connection problems for a span of almost two weeks, i called up my sister (who is by the way, a mouth compared to a machine gun when angry) and told her about our problem with the connection. I gladly gave her the hotline number of globe and viola! problem solved! our connection is back up and running although minsan humihina pero di tulad ng dati…

@warren
kumag talga ang globe bro.ang bagal bagal ng connection tae.parang sayang ung binabayad ko.

i got the wimax 795 plan and it was great for the first month but lately its been showing its crapy side…i cant even get a decent streaming anymore or surfing the net without having the line stop for a minute or two… i’ve been weighing if smart 999 is better than the wimax i have right now…can somebody help me? are you also experiencing the same problems?

nakowwww……….wag na kayo mag wimax walang kwenta……..gamit ko un,nagamit ko ng 6 days up to now wala ko connection,nakailang report na ko iisa sinasabi ng csr.kabisado ko na nga ung dialog nila hehe.nasa nag smart bro n lng ako

yup sabi mo pa ang lupit.ang ganda nung commercial galing pala mag dribble ni cuan.

ei guys did you see the commercial of smartbro?

empoy
ei empoy thnx sa info ah..napanood ko ung video mukha nga mabilis naman ung smart bro..tae lang talga ung dati namin internet provider.XD

Broadband Tattoo service is horrible! you get to do the connection several times to get even just a decent internet connection. P5 per 15 minute charging is grossly disadvantageous to users. they take out 5 pesos from your load in EVERY TIME you connect to broadband REGARDLESS if you are able to surf the internet or not. This is yet again another bull crap in ripping off Globe users’ money.

sure kaba empoy na mabilis ang smart?kasi ang bagal ng internet provider namin ngayon dati ko pa gusto magpalit.

kuya micheal bakit naman di ka satisfied sa smart bro?

OMG THEY’VE STARTED GPON DRY RUNS HERE IN OUR LOCATION. I wish bukas eh i-consult nila ang house namin for a test! I want my PLDT MyDSL terminated!!!

Same here, I called globe and the CSR dont even have a clue about WiMAX … tsk tsk tsk

If it’s from Globe, don’t expect something nice will come out. Customer support and service sucks. I’ll rate it 3 out of 10 (10 being the highest). Provincial services such as leased line, DSL, etc, expect 80% availability for theres always a fiber-cut somewhere. (Although not their fault for they usually outsource fiber connectivity, but who else are we going to blame?)

If PLDT is available go with PLDT, they are not perfect but is usually better but in delivering their service and customer support. There’s a reason why they are among the top earners for 2008.

I called Globe customer support to ask about Wimax service but as expected they had little clue about the service, as if they didnt know they had it. Although the CSR was able to answer my questions, she kept on putting me on hold probably to ask fellow CSR about my inquiries. This is exactly that i expected from Globe, im not surprised at all.

better not expect too much from those 10Mbps or higher bandwidth internet access. with those 3,995 pesos a month value, it would have to be “shared” for them to make some income out of it. with international ip transit cost ranging from $70-$120 a meg, giving a user full 10Mbps or even 1Mbps consistently would mean they’ll be operating at a loss. this is why a 2Mbps internet service leased line would cost around $800/month. Just a thought.

IPVT or triple play would be a great service for these GPON offerings due to the huge bandwidth and local content availability from video super headends. Well PLDT and Globe is doing a good start.

@Carlo Dimaandal – no, fiber uses light, copper uses electricity, fiber optics doesn’t have any emitted frequencies that could affect or disrupt any electrical signals on copper dsl/phone lines.

I am now subscribed to the Globe Broadband 3mbps plan for 2,000 pesos. It’s as slow as hell. I bet the 10mbps would just be as fast as 1mbps because my 3mbps is as fast as a 256 to 512 connection.

Also, my Globe Visibility unlimited plan which previously reaches 900kbps surfing speed has been downgraded to 256mbps.

Is this to give way to the newer services? I hope they still maintain and take care of loyal subscribers rather than aim to get new ones where at the end, those new ones would just be part of the one’s that are already suffering from their sucky service.

For GPON and WiMax … huawei.com

Nice! I stumbled upon this article about FTTH. It’s a good read. You may want to read all about it at:

10Mbps for Php3,995 month? ohh.. that’s cool…

whoa, that’s very fast! I hope that service will cover our town, too! :D

All I need is 100 pesos unlimited WIZ for Globe phone plans… like the current 100 pesos unlimited Airborne Access for SMART plans.

GPON looks SO sweet. Finally fiber technology to the home in the Philippines. Gotta love 100Mbps. But I hear laying of fiber infrastructure and the fiber lines itself disrupt regular copper phone lines (DSL). Hope not.

@yuga: does the wimax plans included in the 30-day money back guarantee?

just a thought: i notice that the competition between internet service providers focuses on the bandwidth. isnt it time that they focus on the service that they promise to provide no matter where your location is? (e.g. the plan says 512Kbps but the actual bandwidth never came close to 256Kbps). i tried to raise this to customer service but i got the same answer for both Globe and PLDT: it depends on your area sir… :D

just called Globe Business Hotline to inquire about WiMax service.

The CSR told me that the WiMax service has been launch for quite sometime now and they are not offering it anymore. “Stop-Selling” na daw ehtong service.

I’m not satisfied with this if it’s not unlimited use ^^
