Since I always want to maintain constant communication with my friends and love ones, I have 3 separate mobile lines. My main mobile phone is Globe, my "tipid" line to have constant communication with Jepoy is Sun, and just recently, a PLDT Landline Plus for my business needs.
But there's always the hassle of bringing 3 mobile phones and even the risk of brain cancer (Jepoy firmly believes that cellphones and the waves from cellsites will someday cause us all cancer). Globe will soon change that... the hassle of bringing lots of phones that is.
Globe just launched a new service for its postpaid subscribers in Metro Manila and Cebu that offers unlimited Globe to local landline calls and vice-versa. The new service is called Globe Plan DUO.
How it works:
1. Subscription to DUO Service is •399/30days on top of a Globe Plan.
2. Once you are subscribed to Duo, you will be given your Duo Landline number. Now, your mobile phone and SIM will have two (2) numbers: your current mobile number (i.e. 0917-XXX-XXXX) and your Duo Landline number (i.e. 02-XXX-XXXX).
3. Upon activation, the following calls are rendered free of charge: DUO to any Landline calls, any Landline to DUO calls, and DUO to DUO calls. Calls made to other mobile numbers are charged regular mobile rates.
4. Everytime you call, no need for a keyword or special prefix:
- To call any landline just dial the area code and the landline number
- To call another DUO number just dial the area code and the DUO number of the person you are calling
- For any landline to call you a person will just dial the area code and your DUO landline number
5. Service is initially available in NCR and Cebu only. All other calls outside the area code (02 for NCR or 32 for Cebu) will be charged regular mobile NDD rates.
How to avail:
1. Promo is open to all Globe Postpaid subscribers.
2. Subscriber can avail of the service through the Business Centers or Register via SMS (with required SMS acceptance of Terms and Conditions). Simply text DUO to 8888.
3. There will be an initial 90-day holding period for new activations, subject to pre-termination fee of •1,200.
4. You can only avail of one (1) active DUO landline number for every active Globe line, at any one time.
5. After the holding period, subscription is auto-renewed on a monthly basis unless otherwise requested by the subscriber.
6. In cases of fraud, Globe reserves the right to discontinue the DUO service, and any of the subscriptions. DUO is not available for International Service Resale.
7. Duo is currently not available for prepaid or corporate accounts.
Promo period from April 5- July 3, 2009 only!
Just one more problem. I am not a postpaid subscriber :~(. I hope that this will be available to prepaid subscriber soon. =D

ReplyDelete*hugs* miss yah!
Among other things which Globe should add to its service is the revival of the CALL BACK ALERT it had a few years ago. It is very useful in places where there is no signal (dead spot) or in places where cell phones are not permitted. In those times when you are waiting for an important business call or suddenly have an emergency call from a family member and there is a dead spot inside a building or in a location, this service is very useful. Smart has this service for its post paid subscribers wherein a text is sent to the subscriber if the subscriber misses a call. I have inquired about it but the only reply you can get from the customer service is “We will update you when this service is available”. This is their constant reply for years now. Maybe Globe just does not want us to turn our phones off if this service is revived. The more phones turned off, the lesser their revenue. I hope this is not the case.
