BOYCOTT GLOBE!
billion pesos for 2006, up by 14 percent from 2005. Revenues grew by
four percent to 57 billion pesos. Globe said this is mainly due to the
1.2 million new subscribers for 2006, bringing the number of Globe
subscribers to 15.7 million who have access to its network of 5,884
cellsites covering 98 percent of the country.
On the same day, Globe snubbed and defied on order by the National
Telecommunications Commission to "hold in abeyance" or to suspend the
controversial and scandalous 100 to 150 percent price increase in its
Unlimitxt Permanent Service, as demanded by outraged subscribers
represented by TXTPower.
Today, we call on all Gentxters and consumers to make their power
known to Globe and like-minded corporate scum who disrespect
consumers and who defy the law.
Let us unite and protest Globe's defiance of the NTC order and to
protest its price hike concealed in a deviously-crafted "promo". Let
us come together to show Globe that they owe their profitable standing
to their loyal subscribers who once thought they are respected and
valued by the company.
STARTING FEBRUARY 8, THURSDAY, WE IN TXTPOWER URGE
ALL GENTXTERS AND GLOBE SUBSCRIBERS TO BOYCOTT
MAJOR SERVICES AND PRODUCTS OF GLOBE TELECOM.
We who brought Globe Telecom from the failing and ailing company in
the early 1990's to the giant it is now have the power. Together,
let's show Globe who they are fighting and insulting by doing the
following:
1.Limit SMS and Calls through the Globe network and find other ways to
communicate
2.Postpone automatic and card reloads
3.Postpone GCash transactions
4.Postpone line applications
5.Refrain from getting icon/music/visual downloads from Globe
6.Refrain from using Globe's GPRS and 3G services
Yes, we must boycott and sacrifice now before Globe transforms all of
us into a community of people with no self-respect and no sense of
consumers rights. We must boycott Globe until it obeys the NTC order
and restores the old Unlimitxt rates.
