Globe MyStarter Plan 300

Realizations + Globe MyStarter Postpaid Plan

Wednesday, May 04, 2016

     If my memory serves me right, I've been using mobile phone since I was in Grade 5. My first mobile phone was Nokia 6150 and my first sim card was Globe. It's a prepaid sim card so to track, I've been buying prepaid cards and going to the 'suking tindahan' to buy a load for more than twenty years now. 

      But as time passes by, I've come to realize that having a prepaid sim card number has pros and cons that I need to address now that I've been sending SMS and make important calls constantly with my blog clients and PR persons for campaigns and projects. I will list down below those positive and negative sides of having a prepaid sim card and my realizations why now I need to go postpaid.

Advantages of having a prepaid sim card:
  • If I have a tight budget, I can buy a load for as low as Php 5.00.
  • I'm free from a 12 or 24-month contract.
  • I'm independent because I can switch from one sim card number to another anytime.
  • If I'm no longer happy with the services, I can readily change to a different provider without having early termination service fees.

Disadvantages of having a prepaid sim card:
  • Hassles of loading every time I don't have a load.
  • Some stores or 'suking tindahan' hasn't replenished their load balance yet.
  • The number of minutes of the load that I buy may come with an expiration date. Unused text and minutes will be forfeited when the expiration time has passed.
  • My prepaid sim card can be deactivated if I don't buy load for a specific period of time.
  • Fees and charges may be higher than that of a postpaid If I'll do the math.
  • If I don't have a load, a missed call should be returned back asap and if not it's a missed opportunity. 

   Because of my part-time job which is blogging, I've come to realize that communication is very important and a missed call not returned immediately means missed opportunity. I have a handful of experience where I cannot return a text or a call to a client who is asking me to edit the sponsored post that I've already published immediately because I was inside a vehicle on my way to an event.

     There was a time where I need to send an SMS to a PR person-in-charge of the event that I'm stuck in traffic and I'll be late. I was about to send a text and found out that I don't have a load. I can't even borrow because I still have a loan. See the picture? That's why I think going postpaid will be beneficial to me now that I always keep in touch with blog clients.

     I recently read from Globe's website that they have this new service which will benefit freelancers like me.

I'm sure you can relate to me when I say that my mobile number is already a part of my life and I'll feel incomplete if I lose it or just change it like that. How about those who already knew my number? It's a hassle for me to change my beloved number that's why I'm thankful to Globe for this plan.
