Going Smart

I’ve been a Globe postpaid line subscriber for over 10 years but I finally decided to disconnect. Here’s why:

1. It’s so hard to talk to a person via 211.
2. I used to get a sizable loyalty bill rebate. But when I inquired recently, the rebate I’ll be getting would less than half of what I used to get. So the longer I stay, the less my rebates get.
3. The loyalty phone package is exactly the same as what a new customer will be getting.
4. No stocks of the iPhone everywhere.
5. They’re not willing (or didn’t offer to) notify me when stocks are available. Instead, they want me to call every now and then to check if stocks are already available.
6. Finally, they have this automatic image compression when web browsing using a mobile data connection. It even affects my Tattoo MyFi. Image compression is not bad per se but the whatever they’re using absolutely fuglifies photos.

So goodbye Globe! And hello Smart!
