Globe's new unlimitxt

When globe doubled their rates for unlimited text, i decided to just select days when i will use it.

The first time i tried it, they only activated it at midnight, 6 hours after i wanted to use it. They did change it though. Now it is 24 hours as soon as an hour after requesting. However, i didnt know that the unlimited text day and the nighttime thing was only for prepaid! Post paid users are only allowed the unlimitxt 20/40/80 which was for 24 hours. I dont intend to send all day.

Why are they being nasty to post paid users? Is it because were stuck with you till the contract expires?!?

For prepaid, use unlitxtd15, unlitxtn10 and send to 2870. Everybody can avail of the 24 hour thing by sending unlitxt20 or 40 or 80 to the same number.

Nokia C1

  I bought 3 Nokia C1 units because i thought Nokia is still the old Nokia. I was wrong. The C1 is so slow. It takes time to get  to answer calls slow. Also, it has a bug. It will just stop accepting your passkey or pattern and wont let you in. You'll need to bring it to the shop and have them unlock it for you.  Of the 3 units, only 1 works now. One just wont open anymore and the other manifested the bug and i still cant find out where to send it. I also bought a keypad nokia some time ago. After a year, it wont function properly. Nokia is not the nokia of old. I dont think i'll buy any more nokias in the future.

Cherry Mobile battery replacement

Today, our secretary reported that the cherry mobile battery in one of our office phones. They called me while i was in greenhills shopping center. One would think that i can easily find a replacement battery in greenhills of all places. No, no battery in the shopping area, virra mall or even in the cherry mobile store in the theater mall. Yes, their store doesn't carry a battery. 

Globe lifestyle plan or else

This is another Globe Telecom​ rant. I called globe (yes, i still have to deal with them) earlier because i realized that i'm paying them a lot for the office globe phone and i don't get rebates. I know i'm out of contract so i should get rebates. They offer me their new lifestyle plan for 499. Neat right? Wrong. They will NOT give me rebates unless i pay an extra 100 to reach their 599 limit and the rebate they are giving is 125 pesos per month. So technically, they are just giving me 25 pesos rebate per month since we wont be using the extra 100 given that the office also has a sun line and a smart line. Worse, the agent says, the 2 lines of my in laws are out of contract too. I said, "Cool! How much rebate can they get per month?" I was then told that unless i convert those lines to the new plans, there will be no rebates. Even if the lines are used to the cost of thousands each month (by my in laws) they will not be given anything in return. I swear, they
