Globe Mobile Banking is the best thing Globe has done for people who don't use credit cards. Imagine, being able to transfer funds back and forth GCash and your bank. No long lines, every thing is at a touch of your fingertips. It does have a huge con, which I also love, which is being able to impulsively buy anything online since most local sellers use GCash. 

I have not used this service for 3 weeks now since it's apparently still unavailable. I called it in then. I was told there was a system maintenance ongoing and that there's no definite time when it will come back. I called again today, and I was told the same thing. Bravo Globe! I tried googling it, and not a word in the internet about the whole service being STILL unavailable, which led me to ask, "Am I the only one using this?"  Haha. I seem to be the only one who cares. 

Being that this service is currently down, I've done less online shopping. Yay me! But the hassle for those who also use this feature for paying bills, like me. And since I don't wanna waste my precious time falling in line in a Globe Service Center, I enrolled my bills to BPI Express Online instead. 










But which Globe company to choose?

I'm already enrolled to Globe Telecom (GMCR INC) (HANDYP), which I suppose is for the Globe mobile postpaid (because of handyp? hehe) but is it the same company to use for Globe Broadband?

Update: I just called again. The account specialist didn't even think twice, she just told me outright what company to choose and without looking at her *slow system*. The first one I talked to earlier must be new. (benefit of the doubt na lang because I'm quite nice today.)

For Globe Broadband bill enrollment in BPI Express Online, choose Innove Communications.

I realize now that I'm this dependent on Globe services. Even for my company data and voice sim cards, Globe is the service provider. With all the service I'm currently subscribed to, one would think Globe should also reciprocate with better customer service. But since they don't really have any other more competent company that competes with them, they give mediocre service, because really, where would the subscribers go to?

When I win 1B pesos in the lottery or if ever I get to randomly pick up a huge fortune, making a start-up telecom company might be my first business venture. 

Seen similar ad campaigns? They're everywhere!

Multiply has been around for some time. I remember Friendster users leaving for the Multiply bandwagon. Why shouldn't they? It has more functionality and you will still be able to customize it the way you want to.

Then came the online shops; It was what made Multiply a stronger social networking tool. I remember fondly the first dress I bought online buy. (It's not with me anymore because my boyfriend was not able to pack it up when we left the hotel in Pampanga during the Hot Air Balloon Festival. T_T) I was buying too much stuff online that I had to stop myself from browsing anymore. Even I gave in and sourced clothes and bags from Thailand, c/o my mother, and sold them to my own online shop. (Woah woah woah, the page is still up. The cursor ~*sparkles*~)
