GLOBE moments


Last august 23 I got a message from my phone network. And it says:
“Congratulations! We have rewarded you with 15 FREE local SMS, courtesy of the GLOBE Rewards Program. Thank you for being a loyal Globe subscriber.”
After a year of partnership with this network, I finally got a reward! Actually for prepaid users if you load more often for a month and reached their desired amount, I think it was 300 for a month, you get a reward such as that above. This means that I hardly get to a 300 a month. hahaha! I’ve never been an avid texter since I changed network. Mental telepathy na lang ako. Nagmahal kasi sila a week after I changed. When kaya next reward ko? Hmmm…tagal pa ta ata. Ha!
Another thing that amused me is their advertising text. Here’s one of them:
“From Globe: Pambili ng GAS! U can win P100K DIS WK! Dahil sa reload mo last 7//17, may entries ka na. Txt PERA to 2346! DTI3086. NoFreeInfo? Txt PTS STOP to 2346.”
So timely nga naman dahil weekly na nagtataas ang presyo ng gasolina. Hanep 100K panggaas lang. Wow naman! On the fourth of August, I got another one after ako nagShare-a-load to my classmate and this time it said ‘PANGNEGOSYO!.’ Okay yun, 100K pangnegosyo. Pwede na sari-sari store nyan. Then last Aug. 30, they sent me one but yet it said ‘Pangkabuhayan.’ It’s just the same with the previous one. I wonder why they never wrote ‘Pambili BIGAS,’ pwede rin yon. Timely for the price hike of rice this previous months! Ilang sakong bigas din yon! Naman! What else would be their next hirit? Pangbayad KURYENTE, pwede if you’re running a food chain. Do they amount to that? Hindi naman siguro. Ano pa kaya pwede? PangBAHAY, sa GK dami nang bahay nyan!
Any how I haven’t tried joining their promos and I haven’t known anyone who won from it. True or not, such promos and ads, yet again, reflect the socioeconomic status of most Filipino these days which the hanep marketing department of this network must have seen.
Hayz, makapagtext na nga…;p
