Globe warns the public of a modus where Globe at Home modems are illegally sold as DITO modems by certain individuals and online stores.
According to Globe, certain individuals and retail establishments are illegally reselling and passing off their Globe At Home WiFi modems as DITO Telecommunity modems. This is done through the unauthorized unlocking of the Globe device, substituting the Globe SIM with a DITO Telecommunity SIM, and concealing the Globe At Home trademark with a DITO sticker. As of writing, DITO is not offering a home prepaid WiFi kit.
UPDATE: DITO clarified that there are no official DITO modems or pocket WiFi devices at this time. Read the statement here.
