> Problem with Globe GPRS (PH)
Bookmark topic
Well, I can access myGlobe, Sureseats, ClicktheCity, FedEx tracking, BPI, Inq7, Google, Yahoo (Mail & Messenger), Destiny Webmail, a few other personal WAP sites (including my own), and occasionally Esato...all on Globe's free WAP APN.
If you guys would rather pay Smart Addict to access these free sites, be my guest! I'm sure Smart wouldn't mind.

all of us are having the same problem in accessing wap sites via globe's gprs. with nokia, they change the apn to mms.globe.com.ph instead of the usual
www.globe.com.ph para gumana. we just dont know kung may bayad yon pero nakaka connect yung dating apn sa wap site ng globe at sony ericsson. some say that globe block those sites to prevent other people from taking advantage of the contents of those sites. anyway, the old apn works well when i'm checking my mail thru a handheld device. sana maayos agad ng globe ito.

i have BOTH a globe and an addict line up to now. i never terminated my 7 yr globe subscription. there is NO cost penalty with addict, but much better network performance in my case.
furthermore, my bills are LOWER with INCREASED data usage, and most importantly, i don't have to deal with some telco management deciding what sites i can or cannot access.

So I guess it's true that Globe blocked wap.esato.com ... I can access wap.yahoo.com but not the Yahoo instant messenger. I thought I was only imagining things!
Is there a list complied of the wap sites that are blocked? (like tagtag.com, etc)
On one hand you can't complain because it's free - on the other as we can all see the negative result is pissed off users who will start to complain about the company. So I would think its a bad PR move on the part of the Globe especially since they never officially confirm or deny that they block any service.
In the meantime, access to wap.my-symbian.com is real fast now! try downloading the apps through WAP and you'll be surprised.
