i subscribed to this last May... but there is this 2 landline numbers that i cant call.. and would you believe theyre both globeline numbers? i complained and complained and complained for 2 months to globe but still i cant make the calls to these two numbers... nobody can give me explanation why i cant call... they too are surprised. all i can get are voice prompts such as "the number you have dialled is incorrect"...

Yes, can you provide us the numbers so we can test it for you? Thanks. I pmed you my duo number.

Bai (muzikfreakah), try to ask Globe about the lowest plan they can offer with a bundle Globe Duo. I got myself another plan which is a Principal GFlex Plan P250 but it is bundled with the Globe Duo P399.

You can't get a Principal GFlex Plan P250 alone. It is bundled with the Globe Duo P399

I hope this information helps.

We inquired na, nag dilemma pako kay walay free unit hehe.

For two of my sales persons. Deciding pako bai if I go with that or SUN+PLDT kay masbarato cept for the dual SIM phone.

If Sun and PLDT Landline Plus, barato and nationwide because sa Sun but mahal lang ang unit. I don't know if pwede na ba ang PLDT Plus ug nationwide. Ang PLDT Landline Plus na P250 monthly ang pwede nationwide. I also read a problem regarding the PLDT Landline Plus trying to call Globe Duo. Murag maglisud tawagun from PLDT Landline Plus to Globe Duo.

If Globe Duo ka, dili lang siya nationwide (Hoepfully Globe would listen to our suggestion that we can use our Globe Duo nationwide. One unit pwede na.

Hope these helps.

cheapest dual sim na maayo klasi naa sa mga 3k...meaning around 1,500 ra ang difference for a single sim phone. can you save 1,500 from using sun+pldt inside a year or two?

here are the cheapest monthly options available:
option A:
sun 150 + pldt 300 = 450 a month
unlimited text to sun (pricelist/model#/etc are easier to text)
4hours outgoing calls to sun (if the other party is unli call then libre sila to call you)
150mins outgoing calls to landline
unlimited incoming calls from landline

option B:
globe 250 + duo 399 = 599 a month
325 text to globe kung 0mins outgoing calls
OR 250 text to any network + 75 free text to globe kung 0mins outgoing calls
OR 75 free text to globe and potentially 33mins to 38mins outgoing calls kung no text to other networks
unlimited landline calls

149 per month savings if using sun+pldt
x 12months = 1,788

k raman guro ang investment sa dualsim phone 1year warranty lang ang kuhaa if ever.
kung within a year lang ka same ra mu gawas gasto...pero in the long run mas makasave gyud ka sa sun+pldt
