well, i was a globe user before because they're the only provider who allows divert calls. but decided to switch to smart due to comparison of signals. and i also have another phone and you guessed it right, it carries the SUN sim.

I both have globe and smart numbers, but I actively uses globe because it gives me the best value for my money. When I load for globe, it doesn't expires unlike smart, its' load expires even if you don't use it.

Almost all of my text mates uses smart so I am a smart user. I just use alltext in all networks to text my other friends who are globe users and sun.

I am a globe user eversince. But there are times that I really wanted to sitch to Suncellular because I have observed the big difference of my balance status every time I check on it. I find all of Globe's services very good. But this is my primary concern, the services that I paid for. It is pretty much high. They have deducted many times from my balance. Eventhough I have just used it for texts. I text most of the time 'coz I find it cheaper. It happens most of the time. I think it happened also to most smart users. And they have demanded for it. So sad these things happen. There was a time when i bought a sun sim , but i only have one mobile. Accidentally i forgot to reload it, and it got rejected. I have enjoyed using it sun. And i would recommend it if you are a heavy mobile caller or texter.

as a globe plan holder i always think globe has a great service, its just that the problem having a plan is you cant sent limitless messages unlike when you are in an unlimited modde.

Globe  - Globe Telecommunications
I've been a Globe user since 1997. I still have the original number ( I get to upgrade the sim module when GLOBE offers to upgrade the sim). I'm also a Globe Gentxt member since 2000.

i use neither. i am a sun subscriber and i think its a good network because "sulit" talaga ang 150 pesos in a month! :) in just a day, i can consume about more than 150 text messages so its really worth it for me. i also love their promo now that even all-text only cards are loaded with 4 hours free call. :) sun is so great. :)

i like smart but since most people are globe users now, i use globe, too. i don't like sun that much. sometimes it's hard to send messages (my cousins told me).

My work takes me to various places in the philippines and i've noticed that SMART has a better signal than GLOBE. GLOBE has better promos, but hey, i'm just after the ability to call or text wherever I am. IMHO lang.

Im using Smart since 2000 and never changed my SIM. I tried Globe and after 1 month i threw the Globe sim because I hate their service. I am not sure with SUN but no plans to try it.

I'm using both of them because of some reason but for me globe is better than smart because there are times that smart is eating up some of my load and there are times that smart is loosing there signal because of some technical problem. When it comes in retailer sim i still need to have extra balance for smart before i can send load to others when i don't have extra load so i will be force to load my smart and when it comes to globe it is okay not to have extra load.
