kasabot ka sa imong gi-istorya? basin 995 or prepaid plan ra imong nahibaw-an nga gi-offer sa globe, basaha ng post akong gi-quote, imagina

plan 995, plan 1295, plan 1995, plan 2995 all have different speed offerings yet all get pegged @ 1GB usage per day

I'm a globe subscriber since the late 1990's.
My plan is P1995 since day one. So, if they put a cup on it, does this mean i have to pay less?
If not, i will follow what my company did and switch to PLDT.

I have the same subscription plan as you have and I've been with globe for as long as i can remember. A 3mbps plan capped @1gb per day is plain ridiculous. As I checked globe's website, the page with broadband plan offerings is no longer available all that was left was this good for nothing usb internet stick they're trying hard to promote. I guess something is in motion right now...

[tonioyantao]

dako ra gani nang 1GB.

100MB lang unta aron ma desiplina gyud.

kung beyond 100MB mag ask na ug permit pareha PPV sa cable ba

........weh?
100mb jud? you try it first then tell us if your ok with it.

Globe has been practicing capping waaaaaaaay before they announced it publicly.

i scrapped globe and moved to pldt much much much much much better.
but IMHO. skybroadband is the best. sayang lang kay the area im living now does not have sky yet. sigh......

nag pataka diay ko? hehehe sorry for that. Uban nasud mao ni ilang practice 100MB limit for download mo lapas ka bayad naka extra per MB.

Istorya's main page will net you around 500KB.

That would mean 200 refreshes per day, minus reading posts, minus the threads and assuming you only read the main page of istorya.net.

Facebook's AJAX tickrate is so fast that it will suck your allowance dry.

Youtube's videos will suck your allowance dry that will give you blue balls.

In an honest and polite reply, GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR 100MB SIR

kung mahitabo 100MB limit mag hinay2x natag gamit ug internet mahal naman ang extra

you don't know what you're talking about! get lost

try research 100MB limit

........weh?

wala ta kabalo kung ang governo nato maka sabot ani maka income man sad cla. maka income para sa tanan.

[yacky2006]

kung mahitabo ni dako gyud kita ang telco ug governo.

kuyaw e separate ang charges sa international traffic ug national traffic...

ang promo na dayon kay unlimited national traffic and 1GB free for international traffic

[wikki]

kung mu dayun ni, time to switch isp. even 15gb a month isn't enough.

[ocelot]

capping doesn't affect your speed

capping is the amount of data (uploaded + downloaded)
I think this is will be hated by those heavy downloaders....

I think this will benefit me... because those who have exceeded their cap pays more

I understand that capping stuff. but, try to see the bigger picture. we wonyt benefit from it. why? because it's just an excuse not to invest on better equipment. lets say karon, 100 users ang pwede ma accomodate sa ilang box. with the cap, kaya na nila pa abton ug 500 users. so, mag inilugay gihapon sa bandwidth. no improvement.

[silent-kill]

this is pure BS, they just want more money!

i can imagine later, they will make new plans available for "unlimited" bandwidth and charge extra

they are acting like communist

write congress about this.
