Finding my Super One

Just got word about the Globe Super One service that allows you to have unlimited text messaging and voice calls to one Globe number. I currently have a "Super One". Unfortunately, since I am on a prepaid plan, I can't tagged this person for unlimited text and calls.

However, Globe is exploring to make the service available to prepaid subscribers soon and very much look forward to it.

At present, postpaid subscribers can avail of it from P150 to P170 a month per Globe number. So if you have a Super One in your life, I suggest availing of this plan. Here is how to activate:

However, I have a personal mission next week and that is to talk to my Super One if I can have our photo or video taken and join Globe's Super One Blogger Contest. The contest winner will have the chance to win a Samsung Galaxy S Android phone.

Globe is very proactive in promoting their Super One service. They also launched a similar contest through Twitter that will end this August 2 where you will need to name your Super One on Twitter.

My Rewards My Globe, TM Astig Rewards launched

At 10:01 this morning, I finally received a text message from Globe 4438 divulging their rewards program - My Rewards.My Globe. TM has a counterpart offer branded as TM Astig.

The rewards program give you special points based on how much you spend and how long you’ve been a Globe or TM customer. You can choose from a host of great deals, like free call/text services, Jollibee gift checks, free passes to Manila Ocean Park, Avilon Zoo and Enchanted Kingdom, PAL Miles points, iPod 4GB, Nintendo DSi, Canon Digital Camera, TCL LCD TV, Deviant portable DVD player, WOW Magic Sing Fiesta, gifts, discounts, and free services in various outlets, among others.
If you haven't received a text message and would like to know more, just send "rewards" to 4438 (without the quotes).

Globe, TM, and Tattoo SIM active prepaid and postpaid subscribers, in and outside of the Philippines, are automatically registered as part of the program.
I think Globe did a great job in building up interest for the 4438 launch. Prepaid and postpaid subscribers got intrigued on what it is all about as Globe organized various contests that includes 4438 sightings and encouraging people to take a guess.

Checking out Twitter, I saw people posting tweets asking if they receive a text message from 4438 already. Checking out SocialMention.com yields 4438 postings on various social networks at 12 minutes average per mention with hundreds of authors (which in this case - users) talking about it.

I certainly look forward to more benefits from My Rewards.My Globe.

What is Globe 4438?

I got an event invitation recently about the 4438 service. According to the announcement, the service will be launched this April 4.

Since I heard it, started asking my Twitter and Facebook friends about the service wondering what they think this service will be.

Here are some guesses:

• Unlimited texting, calls, and Internet for only 38 pesos a day that can be used for oneself or as a gift to another Globe user.
• No time limit international call for only 38 pesos.
• Form a group of 38 Globe users and set up a TRIBE that can participate in various special activities and deals.
  
• Buy special deal items for only 38 pesos.

The possibilities are just endless. I guess we'll just have to wait till April 4 to find out what this new Globe service is all about. Will be out of town by then but good thing I have my roaming activated. It will surely be an interesting Easter Sunday.

Been using Globe for as long as I can remember. It is my hotline number for inquiries set as default in my DigitalFilipino.com website. Great to see all the variety of services meant to serve its prepaid users like me (and of course to their postpaid too). I'm sure with all this excitement being built-up, will likely be a loyalty program worth checking out.

How about you? What do you think this Globe 4438 service is all about?
