Globe Wimax Plan 795 Review | Globe Wimax Plan 795 Package is not 795 - its 900

Customer is always right, a lose adage which is very applicable with my experience with Globe Broadband (Wimax Plan 795). When they advertised and talked about this Globe Wimax Plan 795, I am so amazed that each of my questions were answered as to what I am expecting them. My first question: Since this is Globe Wimax Plan 795 - a "wireless technology", should it be freely possible if I carry it from one place to another (e.g, Batangas to Mindoro) provided that I have all the paraphernalia? (antenna, main globe wimax device). They confidently answer me "Yes", so I am happy. Next thing, 795 is per month right? How come it is so cheap considering that 512kpbs is a little bit fast by theory. Nice strategy! "Nakakaengganyo" is local term. But when they came to my house and installed this Globe Wimax Package, I observed that the connection speed is sometimes ranging to only 230- 300 kbps, based on Speedtest.net. When the bill delivered to my house, I am shocked because my payment was Php 1,346.28. How sad, cause I am only expecting 795 this month. They lacked information during their advertising that there is a VAT equivalent to Php 144.28. So you will not pay 795, but will pay 1,346.28, why? Because they added another "ontime charges" cost 446.43.

Globe Wimax Plan 795 Plan Review

With my experience, I called 211 (a customer service hotline of Globe) and verify my concerns. The customer representative said that Globe Wimax is transferrable, but you will pay 552.00 each time you transfer. (not free! contrary to what they said when they are advertising the product) I also asked for the possibility of cutting the plan, It is also possible but you will pay two months bill f you are not yet finished with the 1-year contract.

In short, they love their "Information-lacking" advertising, because if you are part of the contract, and you subscribed, you cannot get out of it. You will pay!!

I come up to this review because this is my own sad experience with Globe Wimax Plan 795. What about you? Did you experienced this also?
