An Affordable Internet Plan for Filipinos
I’m sure most of the people here have complained about their internet connectivity in one way or another
Greetings fellow Steemians. In this post I would share an awesome but still affordable data subscription here in Philippines. For anyone who has NOT heard about the internet connectivity issues of the country – please be informed that some users are complaining about slow connectivity but still pegged at expensive prices.
Luckily, Globe telecom has this two particular data promo that offers a truly worth it internet package at an affordable price. You will note that I did use the terminology “Affordable” and did not go to use the word “Cheap”. This is because each one has their own monetary standard when cost is concerned.
Anyway, the Globe data promos that I am referring to are Gotscombodd70 and Gotscombodd90. Below, is an explanation on the mechanics of the two data subscriptions.
--- Gotscombodd90
For 90 pesos (roughly $2 USD) the user will be given 2gb of data and 1k sms to all networks for seven days. The included packages are good for 1 week and in the rare chance that the user was unable to consume all those credits, one simply needs to register again. In this way, credits that are not consumed will be carried over to the new subscription.
--- Gotscombodd70
This one is similar to the above promo but with two main difference -- cost and data allocation. This particular promo only cost 70 pesos but is only allowed 1gb of data. Everything else (text message allocation and validity) stays the same.
--- Who is this promo for?
The promos are great for average internet users. Naturally, this is not applicable for heavy data users who enjoys movie streaming, YouTube, and downloading.
--- How to avail these promos?
Availment is truly simple – just send Gotscombodd90 or Gotscombodd70 to 8080 to register and that’s it.
Here’s hoping the information provided here would be beneficial to my fellow Filipino Steemians. The more data, the more time to enjoy the site. Have fun Steeming everyone.
Notes:
- No photos included on the post
- These internet promos are only available in Philippines and for Globe / TM users
- This post serves as an FYI for prepaid users (like me) who are looking for an affordable and reliable internet package
One of the biggest problems in the Philippines. Internet connection. At least we have prepaid ones :D

Internet in the Philippines is annoying. We have 10mbps from Globe, and it is not satisfying.
One thing ph telcoms are pr0m0s that they say are unlimited use but they have capping limit. Like, wtf? An unlimited pr0m0 with limit? Telcos do a good job of robbing the Pinoys by these promos.
internet connection problems really doesn't change. It's a hassle and veru irritating at times. Anyway, thank you for this very useful info.. :-)
Internet connection is like a turtle 🐢 soooooo slow..
I agree... I already used it.
the biggest problem is he internet connection
Here in our place in Bulacan, we are paying monthly for our internet from globe broadband but the problem is that since it has a cap of 7GB per day, after consuming the 7GB, everything turns really sloooow. I think I should try this combo/promos. Thanks for sharing paps! 😊
