Well, it seems that Globe still have'nt corrected the wap/gprs access. Yes they have opened Esato but only up to the first page or homepage. I dont know about you guys, but whenever I try to access esato via globe, I can only open the first page & after clicking a particular content it says "403 forbidden". Its still not perfect.

I was able to download a couple of themes using Globe prepaid but could not go to the forum. I'm getting very impatient with Globe opening up sites and the only reason I am not going back to Smart is this Libre load promo of Globe where you get 20% free load with every Autoload that you buy. It's way cheaper than prepaid cards even with the cards having free text. But this promo lasts only up to Sept. 30 so after that and Globe hasn't shaped up yet (as least fully open up the access to Esato) it's goodbye Globe.

Hi @translator_lapid. Esato is posted on the Globe's wap site but I still can't access the Forum area. Just bought myself a new Suncellular sim (had one before but ruined it - don't ask why) and just activated its GPRS so I'll be trying to out later. Hope Wap on Sun is better now than before when it was super slow.

globe has a credit limit for your bills, does smart have that too? my sister's line is with smart and if she misses her bill for a day, her line gets cut off. which i think sucks.

Hi @dinky! Sun's wap is now even slower i'm afraid
The slowness became more and more noticeable starting last August 19, when Globe started charging on wap gprs. So the fault isn't Sun's; they have limited bandwidth of course (their wap is free) and the influx of free wap addicts -- (former) Globe subscribers -- has caused congestion.
Hello @gullybetty - I have a Globe line too, and i can't wait til November when it expires... I've also stopped hoping that Globe will at least become honest in declaring how much they REALLY charge on gprs. (Please visit the myGlobe forum for the complaints.)
I believe Globe has decided to let go of free/reasonable wap gprs as excellent value-added service. I used to be a proud Globe subscriber because of it. But now, it's obvious that they have decided to focus on where Smart has been licking them - signal strength (I now get full bars within my room), retail strategizing, etc. Can't blame them: The masses, the majority of subscribers, don't really use gprs/wap.

I beg to dissagree I've been using SUN since last july and the gprs signal is fast enuff for me..Also in my observation it also depends and w/c phone do you have. Up to now I still have my t68i (2yrs old) and comparing how fast a wap site loads on my new k700i, the k700i wins bigtime!

@kenski - I've been using Sun's wap gprs everyday since last Aug 03. Lately, it's fast from around 1 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. All other hours, the slowness can be really felt.
But when I first got my Sun sim last Aug 03, it was speedy at all times. Back then, i could at all times run TipicME, which requires strong, steady gprs; otherwise it disconnects. Lately, it's become impossible to use TipicME except during the hours i mentioned.

its about time that a cell network GSM provider gives unlimited calls and text with in their network
starting october 1,2004 suncellular will launch their new feature which is the 24/7 unlimited calls/text
why would globe and smart say that their company is in debt?
