Speak and Surf is Globe’s answer to Smart Bro?

While we were on the topic of broadband, I asked more about Globe’s Speak and Surf and found out some really juicy details about their new product. I believe this was also mentioned during our last meet-up when the Globe Team did their presentation.

  • Out of the box solution for broadband internet and landline telephone.
  • Use the wireless internet and the phone at the same time.
  • Connects to Globe cellsites using a wireless modem/router via CDMA technology.
  • Up to 256Kbps connection speed.
  • Costs Php995USD 17INR 1,437EUR 16CNY 123 per month including the phone line.
  • Free text messenging within the network (500 SMS per month unlimited for the first 3 months)

Globe Speak and Surf

I was told that this hasn’t been rolled out commercially but they’ve been doing rounds door-to-door. We should be seeing print ads and TV commercials by October. Hopefully, this would answer the growing complaints for a Smart Bro alternative.

  1. I’ve seen this one. Nagtataka nga ako kung ano yung hawag ng girl na phone na may antenna. So ito pala yun.

  2. yugz,
    plakitingnan yong NWC ko. forgot my pw sa client support.

  3. Hmm…looks interesting. I wonder how it would actually perform. I bet Globe has learned a lot from the mistakes and mishaps of the Smart Bro team. ;)

  4. This may be better than Smart Bro since it has a Globeline. I hope the unit has a UTP jack and they make it easy to share the connection.

    Abe has some Globe DSL complaints here.

  5. diba ganyan din yung Digitel MANGO?

  6. But for some reason, Digitel Mango was not promoted much.

  7. well, based on reports from different online fora, it seems the globe service sucks more than smart’s :P

  8. Mahal pala yun monthly, masahol pa sa smartbroken yata to!!! Tiis na lang muna ako sa smartbulok , hintay na lang ng wired ISP provider dito samin.

  9. im using smart broadband for 3 months now i can only sa n bulok ang service nila for the first 2 months pero ngayon ok n ng konti. konti lng kasi tae pag umuulan walang connection ano yun. nag offer p kayo ng net tpos di nyo sasabihin n disadvantage pala nya pag may ulan asar. nag My DSL nlng sana ako ng PLDT kaht umuulan meron.tiis lng tapusin ko lang 1 year contract nito lipat n ako ng dsl. smart broadband needs improvement sa connection kung minsan patay sindi and connection. at yung ulan sana di nlng kayo ng pa wireless. mag cable nlng kayo.

  10. Anyone who can help me on how to pay my bill on speak and surf, ive already try asking globe center here in olongapo but they say that “hindi daw nila hawak un” ask the dealer who gave the unit! actully its true “may nag house to house dito sa location namin, about the speak and surf “
