Typical Globe: How to Activate Globe Roaming

HK + Macau Week: 2 Days To Go

Well, technically, since this day is almost over, it's 1 1/4 days to go. I've been trying to pick out clothes to wear for the trip and now I'm seeing the impossibility of packing it all in 2 medium sized bags together with my Mom's and sister's things. Mom wants everything hand carried because it's easier and cheaper that way I guess. I'm seeing a Battle of the Bag Space tomorrow when the actual packing ensues.

Aside from that, I've now googled how it is to set my Globe Prepaid Sim to the roaming service. I found out that though it's as easy as texting to check your balance, you won't have any load balance to check anymore from the staggering rates. In case anybody needs the information, here are the steps to the kingdom of Check Operator Services.


HOW TO ACTIVATE GLOBE ROAMING SERVICE
Step 1: ACTIVATE your roaming while still in the Philippines
  • Postpaid subscribers can call 211 (toll-free) via mobile.
  • Prepaid clients can text GROAM ON and send to 2884. Free of Charge.

Example: GROAM ON 06/01/2008


Step 2: For HELP while roaming, you can call our 24/7 Customer Service Hotline

  • Postpaid subscribers can call +632.7301212 from your mobile (toll-free)
  • Prepaid clients can call *131*6327301212# from your mobile (toll-free)


How to MAKE CALLS while roaming:

  • Postpaid subscribers

    Simply dial “+” + country code + area code (or operator code) + phone number.
    Example: +6327301000 if landline or +639178000000 if mobile and press SEND.

  • Prepaid clients

    Dial *131* + country code + area code (or operator code) + phone number + # sign.
    e.g. *131*6327301000# if landline or *131*639178000000# if mobile and press SEND.


How to SEND MESSAGES while roaming:

Use the International Number format when sending a message to someone: "+" + country code + mobile access number + mobile number.

Example: +639xxxxxxxxxx, and press SEND.


  • These services have the following rates: P2.50 if sent while in the Philippines, P25 + P2.50 if sent outside the Philippines.
  • A minimum balance of P80 is required to make and receive a call while roaming. A minimum balance of P25 is required to send a text message.
  • As soon as you arrive in the Philippines, please be reminded to text GROAM OFF and send to 2884 so that the minimum balance as stated above for calling and texting will not apply.

Countries are divided into different zones with varying rates. I didn't include the others because it's no use to me. I'm kind of posting this entry for bookmarking purposes that if in case I need to, I'll be able to search about this information by just visiting my blog. The previous data are taken from the following sites which you may find useful.

So that's it. Almost one day to go and I still have to buy an extra pair of contact lenses and prepaid load for this insane roaming service. Plus I really need a haircut because my hair's starting to weigh me down and eat up all the protein in my body even though I have way too much already. Hopefully, grandma's in a good mood today to give me a free haircut. *crosses fingers*
