globe bailing out from unlimited party

yep... it's true, globe telecoms, through its subsidiary touch mobile will not continue its unlimited call and text promo and they said that they are not intend to make the promo which end tomorrow to be permanent.

globe president said that the price war happening in the mobile industry which started by sun cellular is "unsustainable". he added that the promo is not intended to add more subscribers. so that means they are only experimenting the advantage and disadvantage of offering an unlimited call and text. now that it will end by april 7, they have decided that not to join the party anymore.

smart's 25/8 [unlimited call and text] will last until april 10, have no words yet wether to continue to join the unlimited party.

while globe is bailing out from the price war, they asked and urged ntc again, to apply its regulation consistently fair, saying that they are also warned by not selling more subscriptions than they could offer when they have congested their networks last 5 years ago.

globe's conclusion, the new paradigm of pricing created by sun cellular will degrade quality of service and results higher number of dropped calls, which for them is unsustainable if they [globe] will maintain a certain level of quality of service.

but for us that are sick of the p1.00 per message sent and p6.50 per minute call are quiet contented with the sun service for now.

but for sure sun cellular also works double time to increase cell sites and to solve the problem. let's just wait for time and give them room to solve the problem and expand.

let's hope and see...
