Globe’s phone service to revolutionize telecom Manila Standard 5/9/09
The local telecom industry is seen to enter a new pace of competition, after Globe Telecom patented an innovation that puts together mobile and landline voice services. (seems a press release as I dont see how it varies from PLDTs existing Landline Plus and is disengenius writing?) The only different feature I can see is that is post paid which limits who can use as PLDT landline plus is prepaid and you can use PLDT sim in any openline cell phone but Globe does allow unlimited calling out to within area code (with exceptions) while with PLDT it is limited to a certain number of minutes out calls while unlimited incoming.
Comment: All phones offer unlimited and landline calling they seem to be confusing the public instead of saying what is free included in plans. There are so many exceptions and the ad doesn't even say that its only for postpaid subscribers. Globe seems to be missing the boat completely as their ad even doesnt state clearly that it is for ONLY for postpaid subscribers and the pre paid is where many subscribers wish to be in these tough economic conditions. That is why SMART continues to surpass Globe in so many new products and number of customers. Wonder when they will open their eyes to the pre paid crowd and mass pricing and not just the elite?
