Globe Broadband tattoo (recent review), Stick performance is a messed

I supposed to purchase 1 globe broadband tattoo stick recently but I have changed my mind after testing the product. I been to Victory Mall Caloocan City last 3 weeks were I am looking for any GLOBE Telecom Satellite office to inquire about Globe Broadband Tattoo and to reload also my G-Cash but it wasn’t there fortunately, I found a booth in the first floor of that Victory Mall with Globe Logo and yeah they are a temporary information center for Globe Broadband Tattoo Stick, where they would be gonna having a satellite office soon in that area.

I have my ASUS notebook with me and my Nokia N73 mobile phone then try to connect to the internet using my phone with Bluetooth connection to my ASUS notebook. The purpose is to compare the speed of connection between my mobile phone as a modem with the GLOBE Broadband tattoo stick performance. It’s a big surprised that even in that place with almost zero signal; I got a 3 bars signal for Globe but the Globe representative using his Iphone has only 1 bar signal. Anyway, many mobile phone competitors with Nokia and its quality are always second to none.

Now, while testing using my Nokia N73 phone, we test the speed and I got a 3G level speed connetion. So I disconnect my phone then install their Globe Broadband tattoo stick to see the speed connection. At that point I found out that the Globe Broadband tattoo is not really reliable even compare to my Nokia N73 phone. It got only a GPRS signal and very slow connection speed of 10 to 11Kbps compare to my phone which reached up to 80 to 115 Kbps. If you will imagine, I am using Nokia N73 as a modem using its Bluetooth connection to my ASUS notebook, so it is wireless which my N73 Phone is just in my gadget bag compare with the Globe broadband tattoo stick which is really plugged in to my Notebook.

The test result is a messed! I will not recommend it to you guys except if you will be staying near their communication satellite to get a 3G signal, or else, you are just wasting your money for P 5.00 peso per 15 minute and you could not even open your yahoo mail. Shall I call it Globe GPRS Tattoo instead of Globe Broadband tattoo? Maybe yes! Because its performance is not a broadband but a shortband GPRS.

The Globe Telecom 3G internet is on the pinnacle now

It’s no wonder why GLOBE Telecom needs to upgrade their sites for 3G capabilities. It is not just because of their wireless and portable Broadband tattoo but also for the demand of internet mobility with mobile phones. Well, I could not say so much about this but it’s already 3 months I been using Globe Telecom 3G internet connection using my Nokia N73 Cell phone as modem to my ASUS pc notebook.

The linking of advance technology in GLOBE 3G with my Nokia N73 3G and above 3G internet connection capabilities and its wireless Bluetooth plus my WIFI and Bluetooth ready ASUS pc notebook, I could have a fast wireless internet connection all day long. Do you know how to use this? If not then contact me or email the webmaster with email address below so that your message will reach up to my desk.

With my Nokia N73 phone at my bag with its Bluetooth open to serve the internet demand of my ASUS pc notebook, people would say, wow! Amazing!. Are you using WIFI while inside the train? Of course not!. It’s a product of Wireless internet Mobility upgrade from Globe. No need to be a very tech savvy to use the maximum features of your gadgets, it’s just and ask and ask from the neighborhood.

Not only that!, the Globe Telecom will let you remain connected to their local network even if your credit is empty. Unlike the Smart Communications, if you’re out of credit then no more local connection even to their network. We are not talking here about anything but internet and local browsing issues. That’s the essence of service from Globe Telecom. Somebody may ask why is it better to be remain connected to their local network? Well, you could browse to their website for free and have all information using your mobile internet browser. So it means you remain updated. Unlike Smart Communications, if your credit is empty then the connection to their local network would be also disconnected.

Globe Telecom Services BLACK OUT and Failed April 28, 2009

Globe Telecom Services BLACK OUT and Failed April 28, 2009

So irritating, so disgusting and so bad after using most of the Globe Telecom Services April 28, 2009 failed to serve their subscribers.

You could not use the following services with no public noticed from Globe Telecom;

1. Customer Services Calls – Failed. Network busy and show error code: 440D Service is temporarily unavailable. ( I tried 1 day but all day is unavailable? This is GLOBE TELECOM BLACKOUT!)

2. Share a load services – failed for most attempt and got few negative reply after 2 to 5 hours period. (Hey Globe wake up!)

3. G-Cash services – Failed

4. Load balance inquiry - failed and no reply by text inquiry

5. Text Messages sending Failed or delays to hours before it would be receive by the recipient
6. Mobile internet connection is only GPRS at 3G Areas

Generally the Globe Telecom Services failed today without further noticed. How so terrible this kind of communication services. It supposed to be the Globe Telecom must inform the public for their failures and give further advisory.

Or maybe they are just keep this issue because they are really inefficient?.

If their services will always be like this? Would you think that they are one of the best in the Philippines or one of the worst?

Globe Telecom; you must always think of this: SSS = Service Service Service. We have commented for better nationwide services lately but what happen now? We are just fair to critic your services but I want you know that this is not the first time but many times happened. But today is very worst!

The Globe Telecommunications great services in the Philippines

The Globe Telecommunications great services in the Philippines




The Globe Telecommunications with its subsidiaries;
• Globe
• Touch Mobile ™
• Globe Land line Telephones services
• Globe DSL Internet
• Globe Wireless Land line telephone
• Globe Broadband Tattoo
• Other globe services

My comment is really good for nationwide services. As I have tried, Globe Telecom services are not just an ordinary services but it could vie for International competition or international standards. Though there are some instances that they are not so up-to-date in technology services, but we could still consider them as number 1 of the countries telecommunication services.

I am a tech savvy, gadget lover, advanced and scrupulous person who loves to be served at the high most satisfaction and I could say Globe services are fitted for me. I have already tried other services of Smart communication; Smart mobile internet, Smart Mobile services, smart bro, and PLDT. Smart is good too but there is something which let say a little bit difference which Tech Savvy will prefer to use Globe. I could not really say what is it but try to be a tech savvy and discover the services from Globe which they do not published. It’s really amazing.

The Globe Telecom communication site upgrades for 3G & HSDPA for better signals?

This is a wow! As what I have commented for 3G and HSDPA mobile internet connection, it would be going to obsolete very soon, so what is the worth for those upgrades?


Is it for “AT LEAST” the Philippines could have a bit faster mobile internet connection but has a GPRS speed for remote areas? So where is the sense of “SERVICE”?. I really believe that “service, service and service” or SSS is the best priority first so that the consumers will satisfy and stay longer with your services (here we will consider the brand loyalty).

Anyway, for me I will consider “At LEAST” than nothing at all. It’s a chuckling topic. Well, if the Globe Telecom updates’ for 3G and HSDPA is just for now and soon for WI-MAX mobile internet connectivity; then, I will consider it as a “BOOM”!

Since WI-MAX will lead for mobile internet connection in the future, then.. I hope Globe Telecom and Smart communications as the Giant rival Telecommunications Companies in the Philippines will think of it.
