Beware of Globelines broadband
If you are looking for a fast, cheap internet connection, spare yourself and do not get the globelines broadband. I am a writer for a non-profit organization, and we have tried several internet providers, I'd say this is the worst internet provider that we had. Very slow internet connection, the landline that comes with the package at often times do not have a dial tone, and after the "Typhoon Frank", our modem was hit by lightning. After reporting it to the customer service hotline 7 times, up to now it has been 1 1/2 months and globelines still failed to act on our lack of internet connection. We are trying to immediately end our contract with them.
We moved office early this year, our previous internet provider was smartbro. we were satisfied with its services but we decided not to renew our contract with them. We tried globelines since they offer landline and internet service in one package, which fits with our aim to cut costs. Unfortunately, we did not get the quality services that we need. Instead of cutting costs, we are paying for an internet connection when we don't even have one for more than a month, and our staff have been renting in internet computer shops outside the office just to have access. even at the early months of subscription to globelines, we have noticed the very slow internet connection and we always have trouble with the dial tone of our landline.
So guys, be warned. Don't get globelines!

Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 12/15/2009 - 10:02.ganito yan ang globe wimax ay na i interrupt din ang signal katulad ng smartbro...
kailangan kc dyan mataas na antenna ..walang mga nakaharang na building ,puno para maganda ang reception ...
mabagal sila pareho ..nag di dipende lang sila sa lakas ng signal kc wireless nga po...
globe wimax po ang gamit ko ..minsan mabagal at minsan mabilis din..at dahil COMPUTER TECHNICIAN ako ginagawa ko ang lahat para bumilis...
ang 1 kung ginagawa try ko nagpalit ng ip address...eh di ang bilis hehehehe...try nyo din gamit kau ng ibat ibang ip address...

Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 12/29/2009 - 23:12.trulalu ka dyan pre! yung sa akin wala naman akong problema sa line, minsan lang nga tiis lang ako kasi minsan mabagal pero tanggap ko na yun. pero recently lang lumipat kami ng house, so syempre bago kami lumipat 1 week before tumawag na ako sa globe para maasikaso na kagad, tamang tama pag lipat namin makakabitan na ako ng line dun sa new address.
eh pero hanggang ngayon 2 weeks na mga paps ay wala pa rin. ang sabi sa akin ng globe 3 days lang daw. namfotang yan 2 weeks na eh wala pa din. kakasawa na mga customer service nila puro on process pa daw at tatawagan na lang daw kami sa binigay naming contact number. (yung binigay kong contact number ay smart, hindi kaya yun ang prob kaya hindi nila pina-prioritize? hehehe)
sa sobrang inis ko sa napaka-kupad na serbisyo nila sinabihan ko yung naka-usap ko sa customer service nila na kung hindi pa nila maaayos ay ipapa-cancel ko na lang yung ticket ko at magpapakabit na lang ako sa ibang service provider. tapos sabi sa akin na under lock-in period pa daw ako. kaya ayun! natahimik ako. pahiya ako hehehehe.
wala lang. yun lang share ko. aw!

Submitted by Anonymous on Fri, 05/14/2010 - 15:57.Halatang taga Globe nagpost ng speedtest. He didn't post the whole page. Nakahost yung speedtest na iyan sa Globe server. I challenge him to post the whole page with test server he used. I'll post my Sun 2460 KBps download and 230 KBps upload. I'll also post my Smart Bro 450 KBps download and 150 KBps upload. And lastly I'll post my Globe 67 KBps download and 106 KBps upload. Globe Super gapang talaga, even dial-up using compression is faster. I went to Globe customer service because their call center people are the rejects from other call centers, almost as dumb as Bagaltel, I mean Bayantel but they couldn't do anything, the sim in the call center has higher priority that's why it's faster than the customer sim. Madaya talaga. I've been on Globe since 1995, their broadband sucks because a fellow named Gil Genio, thinks he's a genius and invested on the wrong hardware, maybe there were millions of reasons to do so? or a female? basta they invested in ZTE hardware. It really sucks, Kaya na freezer siya.

Submitted by Anonymous on Sat, 01/02/2010 - 20:50.Noong December last year lang nag complain ako sa globe na mabagal yung download speed ko. Our plan for globe is WimaXX 1mbps P1295 a month. First I go to speedtest.net to confirm my internet speed it came out na 0.45mbps which is lower than the normal speed which is 0.60 mbps that speed is said to me by the globelines technical team. They said that monitor this within 3 to 5 days LOL.... and after the days I waited its still no improvement. In my front neighbor their using WimaXX conection too and the same plan as ours and they got the real download speed which is 1.21mbps!!!!! look at my speed is 0.45!! lol. Can you provide me the best solution for this. I know their are people would help me with this thank you!

Sa amin kasi hindi pa aba eh more than 2 months totally out sila nun and we're just in Mandaluyong. Satisfied ba kayo sa rebates nila?
