- Regardless if you're on postpaid or prepaid. Cap of 800MB is uniform across mobile providers. It is NTC that set that up. Given that you are not capped has something more to do with globe's system, (take note monthly bills are delayed, etc). They are having a hell of a time coping their system with the Business side

- Everyone, may it be globe or smart users. Where can we get updates regarding blackberry events here in ph? I want to attend one

- I'm not trying to argue but you got your information wrong. True, there must be an NTC regulation on daily usage cap but that 800MB applies only to prepaid (at least for Globe). If it's anything, fair usage kicks in at 1.5gig for postpaid but I never got throtled on bandwidth ever. I know almost everyone of my friends do.

Globe does not have a written policy on caps for postpaid LTE/3g/edge on their handsets, if you find one, I will rest my case. Prepaid has an *unlimited surf as much as you want for 24 hours* datacap of 800mb.05-26-13 12:57 PMLike 0 - Didn't experience the cap. I downloaded a game which is 1gb and watched youtube vids all day.
Guys, got my lte sim. Thanks for the suggestions. Haven't got a lte connection yet though.

- Globe agents are usually confined to a specific segment of expertise, but that doesn't make them experts at all. They simply follow a pre-defined set of responses that are laid in front of them. You'd be lucky if you encounter one who knows what he/she is taking about.

Posted via CB1005-26-13 07:41 PMLike 0 - My facts come from real life experience and with almost everyone I know who are on postpaid. Your link applies to tattoo speed sticks and related products. Are you on postpaid? For how long? I have been with Globe for the past 4 years and has never experienced any capping of bandwidth. It's ridiculous to ask telco CSRs like you mentioned because they don't know sh*t except creating reference #s. This is not an insult but it is fact, they don't know anything.

My friends do not experience the cap also. but I'm not sure file sizes are directly equal to I/O mobile internet speeds.
Just because you're not experiencing it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
Cheers

Just try it yourself. Others say there is, but others may say there's none. But when i got my plan, they said there's no cap and that's what i experience. Maybe there's a difference with the subscription.

But you must also take into consideration that we are in the Philippines, where anything IS possible. . The existence of the law does not automatically mean that it is being followed.

- Oh! How would I know if my LTE sim is activated or not? I've been to Makati and Alabang and I haven't seen an LTE signal, just H+.05-26-13 11:26 PMLike 0
