Reviews and Complaints

May I ask for assistance because I have no internet connect since last friday my account number is [protected] and account name is Omamalin, Renalyn. My last payment last on August 24 amounting to P1804, at Cebuana pawnshop with electronic validation number BP506120824180002. If you have any questions or clarification contact us at [protected]@gmail.com or cp number [protected].
I hoping for your immediate response in my request because we badly needed the internet connection right now.

Thank you very much.

When we installed Globe line for P1299.00 a month, the sales agaent said, that we can ask for temporary disconnection if we go abroad. Now we are back. The bill is more than P5200.00!
After visiting the Globe Office at Robinsons, the lady called the billing section and asked to review the bill. I never requested for a reconnection. I proofed to them that I monthly requested the disconnection, still they ignored my request. Very unprofessional thieves but succesfull stealing money of poor Pilipinos!

last june 2018 i applied for PLAN 799 then 1st week of august the unit(J2 Prime samsung) was taking a longer time to charge . last august 13, 2018, i decided to go to the globe telecom office(Baligatn, City of ilagan, Isabela)to complain about the defect.after 30minutes of waiting, i was advised to give back the unit for repair and to temporary disconnect my account, i asked why they cannot provide a temporary unit instead so i may continue to use the plan but no clear answer was given by ms.Valdez with no assurance of how long will it take for the repair and the stress that i had to undergo(i bought a new mobile phone so i could continue to use my account. Sept 1, 2018 i went back to their office to pay and to ask for any update regarding the defective mobile phone, i was told that the mobile unit was still in manila and they don't know when will they give it back.I asked if i can terminate the plan, i was asked to talked to customer service(221) via call and the advised was to: Option 1. temporary disconnect my account for 1 month(Sept.1-Oct1, 2018) with ref #320916466A and renew the disconnection until i get the mobile phone back. WHAT? and option 2. she told me that i have to pay php 6, 000 + for the termination. wow!I accepted the 1st option that is to temporary disconnect my account but the fact that i applied for a plan to make my life less stressed but i was stressed that day cause instead of making me feel better it made me feel helpless.

I just want them to be kind to their customers give customers what is due them;
I want a refund for my advance 1 month payment and FREE termination of my account #[protected].
I hope you will act affirmatively on this matter .

Im with globe for a long time and I really enjoyed their broadband services thats why I decided to upgrade it and renew the contract. Til this issues with their landline and internet happened. I contacted their hotline and talked to lot of agents, supervisors and a manager already from different towers. At first the issues were just an interruption with the internet and static line on the phone til suddenly I lost all the connections. Complaint was started if Im not wrong since July 29th of 2018 til today and contractors will just tell me that they will come to my house to fix it but none of them will do. I waiting the whole day everytime that they will say that just like yesterday. Then I will be shocked cause its indicated to their report that its executed when no one of them come to my house and the date for on site visit is just always being moved forward. Its already a long time issue and the damages Im having is too much. Now Im stressed and depressed cause its always like waiting for nothing and sacrificing my appointments for nothing as well. I hope this still has a chance to be resolved and wont happen again if I could still stay with you Globe. Landline number [protected]. PLEASE IM STILL TRYING TO STAY PLEASE SOLVE THIS ISSUES.

I was a loyal Globe customer for 19 years. Until today.

> I had a billing dispute, that I know would be easy enough to resolve. However, I was given the runaround for 3 days. Meanwhile, I had no cell service because there is no coordination across the various units of Globe.
> I was put on hold for a long time (roughly 2 hours) because no supervisor was available to take my call. They were all apparently engaged. During all this time. I guess this makes sense because I expect that other people have issues with their service, too.
> Given that there was no escalation route for me, the only recourse the agent could give me (because their supervisors were too busy) was to send me to the Termination line. Funny, because it only took them minutes to cut one of my accounts. I am still following up on the other line I am having cut.

Bottomline: Globe would rather have you terminate your business with them for nearly 2 decades than to resolve your issue. Honestly, I am relieved that I no longer have to endure this incompetence on a monthly basis. Good riddance.

Globe postpaid account is being charged with netflix monthly of 460.00 since september 2017 and is unauthorized because I never subscribed to netflix. My phone service has been disconnected numerous times due to apparent netflix non payment. I have complained since last year 2017 and just this august 24, 25, 26 and 27, 2018 my phone line has been disconnected again adding to the numerous times I was inconvenienced. (the plan is 599). I want a reversal of all the unauthorized netflix charges and credit for the days that my phone service has been disconnected due to forced unauthorized netflix charge. I want netflix to be taken out of my account and deleted forever.

On Aug 24th I received my email billing from Globe (21st month August) that billing indicated a balance of 472.12 due on 02 Sept 2018.
On Aug 26th I received a text message from Globe demanding a payment of P1972.12 or outgoing service would be discontinued.
Responses from Customer Service are just 'canned text' responses with zero answers to my questions.
First and foremost the account was current (not deliquent) and I have all my Globe payment receipts from LBC.
Second, the account demand was immediately paid (within the hour of receiving the text message) even though the demand for payment was fraudulent.
This the second instance of fraudulent billing from Globe Telecom within the last 8 months.
A formal complaint has now been filed with the NTC and consultation with an attorney is pending
NO response from Globe has been received other than an automated message.

I have already sent 3 volume boost requests for my account #[protected] from 3 days ago but none of them has been delivered. Last week I also applied for a plan upgrade but I got no feedback after 48 hours. I called up the next day and customer service agent said they didn't have my email. How come? I'm on paperless billing. Then I was promised escalation of my request. I followed up on it the next day via Globe chat on FB and I was told they would have to rework my request. My, oh my! I'm a long-time customer of good standing and I was only asking for an upgrade. They were not sending feedback and I was only made aware of the status when I called up. Presently, I'm on 0.0 data as I write this and have decided to try their Android app to make another upgrade request. I feel very uncertain if Globe would promptly deliver this time. What's wrong with this company?

My name is Laura Gabieta Suzuki with Residence in Blk 6 LOt 12B Onyx St. Pilar-Village, Las Pinas, Globe Customer: [protected], Phone Number, which use: [protected], really, my claim is about the bad service and abuse, through its Call Center, who received my infinite complaints about poor Internet service and excessive bill collections, arriving in the month of January, to decide to "CANCEL" said service, for which, I have the numerical reference, of that report made to the Call Center "Globe Telecomunications", without a doubt, they to my cancellation of services, they promised me, to adjust the last receipt of payment, which, they never did, until the date, for the On the contrary, they sent me a receipt, with the alleged fines for not paying that invoice, which were adjusted.
Today, Sunday, August 12, 2018, call the Globe Telecomunications Call Center again, but, unfortunately, they treated me as anything, less as a person, moving from one place to another, and without reference.
Waiting for your suggestions and / or solutions.

Having no need for the landline, I called Globe support to disconnect my landline Account no. [protected] in Feb 2018. For some reason, I found out 5 months later that the account was instead placed ONLY in 1 month suspension and Globe claimed to have resurrected the line although several tests on the landline handset made to see if the line has been actually disconnected were a constant 'register failed' message. The landline was not used at all from Feb to July.

Globe also did not send the usual monthly ONLINE bills from March to June. Since the disconnection/suspension, the first bill of P2596.44 came in July. This bill erroneously state a 'Previous bill amount of P1997.44' simply because there was no previous bill received that would inform the account holder of the claimed 'unpaid' amount. By email, Globe admitted there really was no previous bill sent but I should have paid anyway since I knew the monthly payment. That was an absurd claim in my opinion. At any rate, Globe is in a position to see if a line is actively being used or not and they are out of line to charge a customer for an 'imagined service' with corresponding VAT charges at that.

Can you please help resolve the matter. Attached is a copy of the July bill.

Sometime in June, my son Dev Luke Kalayaan O. Montenegro and I went to your office in Robinson's Place in Calindagan, Dumaguete to process the transfer of my account to his name. It took us almost two hours there to go through and complete the documents, and we were assured everything was okay. Yet, just today I was informed that you cannot transfer the account because you need a letter from me. Why was this information withheld when I was there with him to process the documents? Why give this information only at a time when I am not around physically to help my son in processing the documents?

In this light, please allow the transfer of overpayments credited to my account #[protected] in the amount of Php 7, 344.53 (Seven Thousand three Hundred forty-four and fifty-three centavos) to my son Dev Luke Kalayaan O. Montenegro's account #[protected]. It with high hopes that your office will now straighten the records concerning our accounts.

Our house address where my son lives is 3750 National Highway, Ajong, Sibulan, Negros Oriental. Thanks.

They switch my account to one with data cap to a previous one that's unlimited. They can't give me the proof that someone from us gave the authorization to have it upgraded and now we are suffering the data cap. I called multiple times and was even advised that they will send me the recordings and that they will instead upgrade my package to one that has higher data cap. that's more than a month ago, I did called for a follow up and was advised by their customer service that the request is still pending (date July 11). Now I tried to call again and was advised that the upgrade was denied and that was filed on June 17. So why did the agent that I talked to last July 11 said that request is still open? and why was I guaranteed by their supervisor that the upgrade will push through? Now the new supervisor told me that she can't do anything or even compensate me for those wasted time as well as the initial complaint that I have which is them changing our package without proper authorization. They said that they can't do anything until their facilities were changed / upgraded. We've had Globe for 5 years and they have never changed or upgraded their facilities for that long? What? I'll have to wait for another 10 years? If there's just a diffrent intternet provider that I can switch to, I would have done that in an instant. Crappy service Globe, very crappy service. Both facilities and Customer Care Services!

I had loaded my tattoo sim to a certain store thru auto load max with mobile number [protected] trace number [protected] and they charged me 5 pesos and i asked the store keeper why to much, he replied to me it`is been long time the charged cost is like that. As i know there will be no extra charges when you loaded your sim. Please be advised. Thank you .

This is the story. I called last sunday, at about 10:00 to follow up the status of my dispute regarding the installation fee of my broadband which i was not informed during the application and installation. She put my call ON MUTE and after 20 min i decided to say HELLO because she never get back to me. After saying hello for 5 or 6 times, thats the only time she answered back. I asked her why she put me on mute, because what i know as a former call center agent, she supposed to put me ON HOLD, and even get back to call from time to time to inform the customer that she needs more time to process the request. She argued with me and i decided to ask for a supervisor. She put me ON HOLD for 25 minutes and then i heard 2 rings and put ON HOLD again for 25 minutes and then refresh the aux and put ON HOLD again for another 20 min., and after that SHE DROP THE CALL.
So unacceptable behavior of your agent.

With this, i would like to get feedback on what happened with my complaint.

Hoping for an immediate response.

Thank you.

To Globe Corporate/Management,

Please be advised that I have sent a formal complaint to the NTC regarding your unjust disruption of my DSL internet service and for disrespectful customer service.

Account number [protected]
Account owner: Omar Vicente

On July 4th, I lost my DSL connection. I called your Globe hotline 211 and was advised that the earliest possible time my internet issue would be fixed was July 12. I negotiated if this could be done earlier as this was the second time this occurred (2 times in 2 months since June). I was promised by your Globe Service Support that it was noted. Two days later, I Globe contractor arrived but could not fix our issue as they claimed they were a Fiber Optics team and not a DSL repair team. I was given another expectation that they would call back and confirm if another team would be sent. They did not call back.

I have been calling 211 for several days for follow-up and gave me no resolution and continued to repeat the scheduled date of repair. This is where I escalated the issue and demanded for an L2 again promised me a resolution would be provided on or before Monday July 9. This resolution did not materialize and I further escalated this issue and demanded for an Operations Manager.

I was put on hold several times, disconnected while on transfer and ignored by OMs giving reasons that they were on lunch or were engaged in a call.

Hence, my complaint is now with the NTC and will be processed within the week. To set expectations, I will not withdraw this complaint unless the following terms are met.

1. I demand the highest DSL broadband plan (Php4499/200Mbps) for FREE for 6 months before reverting to my original 999 plan at the end of 6 months.

or

2. The Php1599/10Mbps DSL Broadband plan but I will only pay Php999 for 6 moths then revert back to my original 999 plan at the end of 6 months.

If I am not given either of the 2 plans as compensation, I will continue with my NTC complaint and this will cost you income, revenue, jobs and your image.

I would not have resorted to this measure had your service immediately restored my original DSL connection.

I hope I have made myself clear regarding this non-negotiable matter. Please comply with my terms and you will still keep me as a loyal customer.

I would like to file a complaint against Globe of how encompetent they were in fixing my internet issues considering that my service is just 4months old yet I already have more or less 7 technicians. Last 5th of July, I had another technician visit and the technician just checked if I had a dial tone, went out, told me that they'll just check the main box and NEVER CAME BACK. I called the hotline again, and they rebooked my appointment, sadly, the technician just noted that I am not available where in fact, I took a leave of my work as I want to personally talk to the technicians regarding with the on going issue of my service. They rescheduled me again for today, I took a leave at work again, and the same thing happened- THE TECHNICIAN DIDNT CAME! And when I called the hotline all they can say is sorry and another assurance! If only I dont have a contract with them, I should have chosen another provider! Globe please, I am really frustrated of how you are providing your service! I dont care how encompetent your agents are, but please make sure that I am getting the service I am paying for!

We have no internet connection and no dial tone on our telephone. I called twice. One is Saturday and one is Sunday, and even confirmed to me that they will go for onsite repair Monday morning. After lunch on Monday, i called again for follow up and said that my request for onsite repair was not approved and hence moved on Wednesday!
I am really pissed because there was no feedback that my request was not approved, and is there such a case?! MY main concern is the landline specially that we have typhoon now and we need it for in case of Emergency. And you know what's really disappointing? The customer service said sorry that they have many complaints at the moment and their priorities are the business complaints rather than residentials! how unfair!

I would like to complain for no internet connection for the past three days. The internet was installed two weeks ago only hence I have no oustanding unpaid bills. when I tried to report this to your customer service by entering my code [protected] the operator responded that my code is invalid.My address is Tanza Timawa Zone II iloilo City, Philippines . tel No. is [protected]
Hoping that my concern will be addressed the soonest time possible.

Thank You.

Okies, I was late on my payment. Which I paid immediately I had the time. I called in on Sunday 7/1/18 for the reconnection, was told latest by 10am on Monday. As I am typing this for 3days now I have no internet connection, and for these 3days I have been on phone every minute of the day with the CS, getting one lie to another, I have even spoken to supervisors... still nothing, this isn't the first time. The other time I got charged for something I wasn't using.. They are telling me they can't get the support system and that my line is connected. One even told me it was already connected only to hang up on me and when I rebooted, nothing. Another told she was going to call back in 15 mins, the other within 2hrs... I have spoken with 2 supervisors who seemed to know nothing.. it's pains be so much, I have been taking this crap when I have been subscribed to them for 4years and for cellphone 7yrs. Am not a happy customer right now..
