How to activate Globe Roaming
Here’s how you activate Globe Handyphone Prepaid International Roaming.
Just text GROAM ON [Start Date] [No. of Days] and send to 2884.
For example, if you want to activate your roaming on September 26, 2005 for ten days, just text GROAM ON 09/26/2005 10 send to 2884.
Make sure that you have P100 balance before activating your International Roaming. You also need to maintain P100 daily load while abroad to ensure continuity of your roaming service. You may request for roaming activation 7 days before departure or at least an hour before departure. Maximum number of days for activation is 180 days.

my cp is deactivated of roaming how can i activate it again?
November 24th, 2007 at 4:26 am
My cellphone roaming no. is 639173817774. Few days ago, I got a text warning that my account was almost insufficient and has to be increased before 4:00 pm that day to increase my balance.
I then asked my brother in the Philippines to pass to my number at least 100 pesos which he did before the deadline, but still my number was deactivited. I asked him again to send another 100 pesos, but nothing happened.
At the moment I am very desperate to ring place Bicol because of the typhoon there.
Can you please activate my roaming cellphone number?
November 26th, 2007 at 8:32 am

hi.. my cellphone has no signal. i did not receive any warnings from globe. i was still able to use it this morning. i asked my sister to load 300 and she already did but still no signal at all. i tried to search for networks but can’t access it.
November 26th, 2007 at 11:32 am
Youll have to tell your sis to call them from there and have ur number activated again. Also to let them know to oput you on roaming for 6 months they can do it, thats what i do and just put load in it from here in the US using chikka and paypal.
November 27th, 2007 at 11:48 am

From your globe phone dial this number and it should be free *131*6327301212 SEND you should get a message and then your phone will ring and it connects you to the Globe center just let them know that you would like to have ur roaming turned on thats all. If you need to load have someone over there buy you a card and load it to your card if not do what i do and use Chikka to load it through paypal. Hope this helps you

hi, i would just like to know why there is no signal on my roaming phone?? i know i have at least 200pesos on my roaming, but when i woke up this morning there was no more signal. i live here in canada and this is the first time this has happened. does anyone know what the problem is and how to solve it?? im afraid that it has been deactivated somehow. i would really appreciate the help. thank you.
March 30th, 2008 at 1:48 pm
Melanie – what you might want to do is try to contact a family or friend in PI to call globe and have your phone re activated for roaming it usually takes upto 24 after they call for it to come back on to roaming mode.
Or if you have another globe phone from someone that you know that has one they can call *131*6327301212# and connect to the Globe customer service.
What you would wan tot do is once you have it roaming I pbelive the max they allow is 180 days so as long as you keep your balance above 100p u can call them and tell them to extend the roaming that way u never have to worry about it getting turned off from roaming mode.
Let me know if you need any more help.
juanitto :o)
April 1st, 2008 at 5:56 am
thanks for the advice. i just called globe directly and everything is fine now. i’ll be sure to ask you if i have anymore problems. thanks again =)

Hello, has anyone experienced loosing thier credits eventhough they havent used thier phones to make or send txt while roaming? This happened to me and my brother twice. I only use my globe sim to recieve txts and I use my Australian sim to reply. But for some reason my globe credits was lost twice. Has this happened to anyone?
I always need to reload when this happens.
Markiko
April 3rd, 2008 at 6:16 am
Your Load does expire depending on how much you purchase. I know that 1000 Pesos is good for 60 days thats usually what i go with I use them up when it gets close to expiring.
Hope this helps,

Hi, I was wondering can you roam a cell phone from canada? If you can, please tell me how. I’d appreciate the help. Thanks
April 15th, 2008 at 12:29 pm
Depends are you trying to use your phone in PI . Or do you have a Globe phone that u need to use in Canada? If you are using a GSM most likely it will work in PI. otherwise you have to just call your network and ask them if they can roam in PI
April 16th, 2008 at 5:41 am
I have a phone from PI and I have a globe sim card. I want to use both of them. But my phone isn’t the ones that you can use everywhere.
April 16th, 2008 at 10:40 am
Do you have a Quad-band phone? If you do then you can use it abroad with Globe all you have to do is contact Globe and tell them to turn on your roaming feature.
You can google your phone and find out whether or not u have a quadband phone.
Hope this helps
April 19th, 2008 at 1:46 pm
I apply roaming yesterday thru txt while im on the airport philippines, but the network was busy, and there will be no confirmation of my request until I fly, when I reach china and till now I dont have any signal. My cell number 09052417065 have a load more than 400 pesos. Pls activate my roaming.
May 4th, 2008 at 6:36 am
hi was just wondering, if i re-activate my sim.. and it might have a balance of lower than P100, would it still get any signal? because it suddenly lost its signal. im here in the states now.. but my friend said he sent me load.. so would i be able to get that load?
May 4th, 2008 at 8:24 am
the load will be put onto your account but it is not certain that your phone will be activated for roaming. What you’ll have to do is have someone call or call your self to have the roaming turned back on and then you’ll phone should have signal again here in the states. read some previous entries i have put the number you are to call.
Hope this helps.

May 6th, 2008 at 7:34 am
thanks juanitto! i have signal again, i called globe directly from my dad’s globe phone!
i have another question though.. my friend bought me a card load in the philippines, is there anyway i can load it up to my globe roaming sim?
May 6th, 2008 at 8:16 am
if you have the card pin number you can just call them directly and tel them to add the load manually for you.
If you have a paypal account what you can also do to send yourself load is use chikka look it up online. You can use chikka to pay for load through paypal and then send to any Globe or Sun account I use it to pay for mine and family that i have over there 1000 pesos for 25US. I can send it to my cell here and i receive the confirmation on my phone here as well.
the load is good for 60 days depending on the amount you paid for. what I do if i don’t make it to PI within 6 months I just call every three months while I still have signal and tell them to extend my roaming. Lucky for me I’m going to PI tomorrow.
hope this helps

May 16th, 2008 at 10:15 am
GI know that Globe is experiencing problems with their roaming network I just got bnack from PI and loaded 2000P. And then it stopped working. I called and they said thier roaming network is currently offline. What you should try doing is to turn off ur cell and then turning it back on.
May 16th, 2008 at 5:00 pm
guys,
i have the same probs with my roaming, that even there’s a sufficient load the signal’s still not appearing. so i got some work around to get the signal again…
whenever this happens i just do a “Manual Network Search” and there it goes signal is back…
just try it it might work with you…
May 19th, 2008 at 1:41 pm
Hi’ya there, i tried to turn off my phone but there is no signal at all! i tried to select manual network search but it keeps saying not allowed! i selected each of them trying to connect t- mobile, 302 720 & cingular but it didn’t work out for me…

i bought two OFW globe sim cards and have them activated a day before departing philippines. hanggang ngayon wala pa ring service. i have P500 worth of load kada sim cards. nakakaiinis na nga eh, sayang lang ang load. i emailed globe for activation but no reply yet. ….sighhhhhhhhh!!!
May 28th, 2008 at 8:52 am
If you have already called them to activate your roaming try turning your cell off and then on. If that doesn’t work try connecting manually with the Network Slection option from your phone.
Hope this helps

no, i didnt call globe for activation, i just texted GROAM [start date][no. of days] to 2884 and have more than P100 load and received a reply that they will activate it in 24 hours. my fones were low bat for a week at kahapon ko na lang ulit na-charged at nabuksan expecting activated na ang roaming but wala pa din. is it true na di raw lahat ng countries covered ng roaming na tu? what countries ba are covered and which are not?
thanks!
May 28th, 2008 at 11:12 am
i had my Roaming activated on my number 09164157498 for more than 12 days now.
i just text GROAM 05/12/2008 12 and sent it to 2884. my problem is how to turn it off since i got back now here in manila and still can’t use my SIM properly. it cannot send messages and i cannot make an outgoing call. isn’t weird?
May 28th, 2008 at 2:19 pm
i already did that many times..i turned my f0ne on and off but there were still no cgnal..i also put it on manual but its no use..

hi,can u help me?I just texted GROAM (start of date) (no.of days) send to 2884.I received a reply coming from 2884 that it will activate in 24 hours but until now it is not activate.please help me.
thanks
June 3rd, 2008 at 7:59 am
got an email from globe and this is what they tell me:
For the OFW sim holder you need to have at least Php 60 to Php 120 balance to be able to receive calls and at least Php 25 to Php 30 for you to be able to send text messages to your loved ones in the Philippines. The rates vary depending on the location of the roamer.
Kindly try the following basic troubleshoot procedures:
1. Kindly turn your phone off and on to refresh the system.
2. Or you could select manually the network. Just go to the menu, then tools. Select settings and choose network then go to operator selection choose manual. Your phone will then search for the signal. (the procedure may vary depending on the handset model)
3. Please check the message center which can be found in the message settings of your phone, make sure that it is +639170000130
to my dismay, nothing works sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh……
June 4th, 2008 at 7:57 am
Hello. Im in Tennessee and my Globe sim is activated for roaming and is fine, but I was just wondering if Globe will ever have a service for roaming cellphones in which we could text unlimited to other globe users?? P25 is quite a lot to spend on one text especially since we have to keep our balance above p100. I know that if there ever was such a thing, that it would cost quite a lot more than the usual cost of p20 if we were in the Philippines. But to me any price (no matter how much) of unlimited texting would be a great help and relief on my part. Anyways, I was just wondering if this is/will ever be considered. Please, let me know.
Thanks bunches.
June 4th, 2008 at 8:03 am
I dont think their price will go down while on roaming.. What I do is have my friends text me to my globe from PI and I respond on my TMO phone from here comes out to 15cents for an International text. I can check my balance to see where I’m at I usually spend about 5dollars in texting. which isn’t bad considering i don’t have to reload my GLobe.
If any one else has any other Ideas please share.
hope this helps,

can some one help me? well, i am supposed to send load to a relative abroad but i bought a call and text card. wen i send it to him he said that he doesn’t know how to reload it since his abroad and not in the Philippines… Is it possible to load via call nd text card in abroad? and how will a person abroad reload it? What are the steps?
Please i need to know, it’s very urgent. Thank You.
June 27th, 2008 at 2:02 pm
did you activate your relative number in roaming service in what country.
June 27th, 2008 at 2:06 pm
1.To reload: Dial *123* + call card number + PIN + #sign. Do not put spaces in between this sequence. Press SEND.
2.A confirmation message will flash on your screen.
“Please wait while we process your request.”
3.You will receive a message “Reload successful. Your new balance is Pxxx”.
If your roaming in Canada and you want to load credits using Call & Text Card, just text LOAD send to 2215
June 27th, 2008 at 2:06 pm
it’s already activated here in the Philippines right before he boarded the plane. the problem is how to reload it, now that he is abroad, using a call and text prepaid card. thanks!
June 27th, 2008 at 2:07 pm

From Canada. Thanks in advance!

July 18th, 2008 at 7:52 am
Before you buy a roaming sim card, make sure to check your handset . It should accommodate the roaming services of the country where you intend to stay. For your handset specification check this website: http://www.gsmarena.com.
July 31st, 2008 at 3:24 am
kung gusto nyong magload sa kahit kaninong cp sa phils or kahit may roaming ka dito at kailangan mo ng load just visit this site http://www.aryty.com you can make an account here and u can load anytime..we used this site kahit yong husband ko for a lont time. And additional information if u want to call in the phils. u can visit 1st-usa.com there’s a lot of phonecards u can choose.

HI, ill be leaving for China on August 24, 2008 and I just buy a new globe sim for me to use while im there and also for roaming. How will I activate or request for roaming? is there a maintaining balance for load? how about is I go below maintaining balance while im there, would it be de-activated automatically? Whats the best time would you suggest to request for activation to be sure it is activated for roaming?
thanks a lot
August 20th, 2008 at 8:19 am
You can download and use Chikka Messenger to send yourself load before it expires. another thing that you can do is have a friend or family put load on ur cell for you ro give u the number to load yourself. If your going to be in China for a long time then you should call globe, you can find the number here to call while on roaming for free. Once you speak to a rep tell them to extend your roaming.
I hope this helps.

HELP! I AM CURRENTLY IN CALIFORNIA, I BOUGHT A GLOBE SIM HERE, SIGNAL IS GOOD, RELOAD WORKED FINE. MAKAKA RECEIVE AKO NG SMS BUT HOW COME I CANT SEND SMS?
October 6th, 2008 at 1:16 am
Lexie what you need to check is to make sure that you have the right message center number. once you have checked and confirmed it it]s correct you need to make sure that you have load. its costs you 15 pesos to send a text from your roaming Globe cell. u mus keep a minimum balance of 100 pesos in order to keep the phone number operating. hope this helps contact me if you need any additional help
thanks,
juanitto
October 8th, 2008 at 11:29 am
im having the same problem as lex, what should the message center number be? I’m not able to send text messages but i can receive them, I just reloaded my phone 300. My signal is fine im wondering if my roaming is deactivated but i have signal and im able to receive msgs from friends, can u tell me what’s wrong and how do I fix it?
October 8th, 2008 at 11:39 am
Ok
go to your text message settings in your phone. make sure that the message center number is +639170000130 then what you can do is send a text message to yourself. If you receive it back then you are good to go.
If your roaming was deactivated you would not have signal.
Hope this helps.

i’ve tried sending several times already but still i couldn’t send. It says no ‘network support for messages’
October 8th, 2008 at 9:49 pm
Try calling Globe it’s a free call from your Globe phone. Tel them that you need to be set up for raoming sometimes youll have signal but no service. Here in the US im raoming with T-mobile. Well in Houston.
Also try switching networks on your phone, once it reconnects to a new network then maybe itll send out.
Let me know if any of this help.

Hi! How long is the expiration of 150 pesos load with a Globe roaming sim card? I just got my simcard today with a 80 pesos free load on it. I messed up my celfon, I probably did something that cost me some money. My load now is 5 pesos. Is there a possibility that they are going to de-activate my roaming if I won’t load it for few days? I coudln’t send a text message too but can received one even when I still have that 80 pesos load on my phone. I got a signal through cingular. The message setting numbes was right too. Is there any fees if I am going to switch to T-mobile instead of Cingular? Thanks
October 15th, 2008 at 9:55 pm
There are no fees if you switch raoming carriers. My phone switches all the time from att to tmo and back and forth depends who has better signal. charges are made when you recieve a call while on roaming and when you send out a text messages using your globe on roaming. you can send yourself load using chikka. or if you have someone in PI that can burchase load and have it loaded to your cell number for you. but Globe does a sweep just about every night of accounts that have low load. you should receve a text indicating that you are low and you have to laod within 24hrs.
hope this helps.
thanks,
juanitto

Thanks, Juanito. Your reply was very helpful to me. I will buy some load today online coz I don’t want my roaming to be de-activated. What if am going to buy 150 pesos load for my roaming and not using it for sending a text message, just so I have enough load all the time so they won’t de-activate it, is my 150 pesos load will expire after few days if I’m not using it to send a text? Usually, if somebody send me a text with my roaming phone, I sent a reply through my AT&T phone since sending a text through the roaming phone cost about 15 or 20 pesos each. And how much does it cost to send us a text message from the Philippines with a smart or talk&text simcard?

hi!..I’m camille..could you please re-activate my number to roaming..i am currently in roaming and used it for 4 days..but when i look at my cellphone again,there was no more signal..i tried to switch my fone on and off several times and look for network but its no use. Could you please activate my roaming back..I still have P125 in my balance..my number is 09156130502..thank you so much!!!!
October 21st, 2008 at 1:35 pm
hi there,,
just ask , is there any contract upon roaming. like for example.we activated it last July
.. how long does the activation work?
do i need to activate it again after 180 days or i dont have to.
my father’s contract at saudi is 2 years.so we just want toknow if the roaming activiation will last for 2 years…
I will wait for your response..
October 21st, 2008 at 11:53 pm
As far as I know the longest that you can have on roaming is 6 months al long as you keep a balance greater then 100 pesos loaded on the number. you should call them like every three months to the toll-free # just so that you never lose service. this way they will know that you are still in roaming.
hope this helps

November 3rd, 2008 at 4:11 am
Rahma how long have you been on roaming? It could be possible that your activation as expired or yout load was not over 100 pesos. you will need to call the Globe line. or if you have a freind or family member call from PI and have it reactivated for roaming.
Hope this helps.

my husband is going to angola, south africa thsi week, and we want to activate our globe OFW sim, when are going to activate it? in the kit-it says, roaming services should be activated 24 hrs. before departure.. but my brod-n-law who just leave for US lastweek and activated his roaming 24 hrs. b4 his departure had a problem with activation, until now he cant still use his roaming services.. so i wonder what is really the procedure so we wouldn’t meet such kind of problem.. hoping for your advise.. thanks..
November 7th, 2008 at 11:43 am
Call Globe and tell them to turn on your roaming. If the signal will permit in Africa you should be fine providing there is GSM coverage there most likely there should be. you should be fine. You should tell you brother to try switching his cellular to the t-mobile network or ATT if possible wither that or his phone was never set for roaming which in case you should call Globe again to ensure that the roaming has been turned on. Hope this helps.
Thanks,

ey! I’m in UAE. I’am trying to reload my Globe, I’d followed every instructions this website says (http://www.shopnzip.com/prepaid_cards/globe_prepaid_roaming_philippines.html) & (Dial the code *123*(prepaid call card number and pin)# and press send.) but unfortunately it doesn’t work at all. All I’ve got was this reply “USSD BLOCKED BY IG3″…
Anything mates? please?? :-) Thanks in advance..

i bought a Nokia 8210 for an alternate use just for texting. it’s been a month now and it’s working pretty well. and this morning, i was texting and i’ve been sending messages for a while then and decided to take a nap. when i woke up, i was supposed to text someone and suddenly, this message appears EVERYTIME now; “Message not sent this time”.
It is very annoying and i am thinking of buying a new one, i searched through the net for solutions. The internet says it has something to do with the Message Centre Number, and it says that the right number is +639170000130. I already checked it a hundred times and i have it correct but still im getting the message and can’t send a single one.
guys, what am i supposed to do?
December 17th, 2008 at 2:13 pm
just a question, m currently in the US now, and i tried the instructions below:
1.To reload: Dial *123* + call card number + PIN + #sign. Do not put spaces in between this sequence. Press SEND.
2.A confirmation message will flash on your screen.
“Please wait while we process your request.”
3.You will receive a message “Reload successful. Your new balance is Pxxx”.
will i receive the confirmation instantaniously? It’s been hours now and it still says
“Please wait while we process your request.”
Is there another way to relaod?

January 10th, 2009 at 4:03 pm
reading the complaints here (and there are gazillions of them) unti-unti nararamdaman ko parang scamming na ang nangyayari. loads na naglalaho, loads na tinatanggap pero hindi nagre-reflect sa account. . . desperate na rin ako. . . panay ang load ko pero di naman ako makatawag or makapag-text man lang. TELCOM companies. . . bilyon ang kinikita ninyo. Maawa naman kayo sa mga OFW na kagaya kong ang kaligayahan na lang ay makapag-communicate sa mga pamilya ni la sa ‘Pinas.
ma-konsensiya naman kayo. This OFW SIM Package is the most agonizing and cruel experience I ever had as an OFW.

globe has problems in roaming. same problem when i was in china and now in thailand. i can make and receive calls but i cannot send nor receive sms. called them up and all they can say is that my account has no problems (i have a postpaid account). why would i call them overseas in the first place if i have no problems? did all their troubleshooting to no avail. good thing i bought a roaming smart prepaid sim before i left. smart is much reliable for roaming nowadays. i suggest you guys get smart prepaid when roaming.
March 3rd, 2009 at 10:19 pm
hi,
i got the same problem as honeycured but it has gotten worse.
i went to Thailand last week (i just returned today) and i had my globe on roaming.
for the first two days, it worked fine.
then, suddenly, i couldn’t send texts or make calls anymore.
i could still receive them, though.
not being able to do anything about it myself, and not knowing anybody who could, i decided to buy a local (Thai) SIM and attached it to a spare phone.
now, i’m back in the Philippines and my phone still can’t send texts or make calls.
i have tried to text groam off but, since the phone can’t send texts anyway, i’m stuck in the muck.
there is nothing wrong with the phone. I swapped SIMS with my wife’s phone and my phone (she uses smart) worked fine. her phone, using my globe SIM, now couldn’t send texts.
some help would be so wonderful.

Procedure on How to reload your credits abroad using Call & Text Card:
1.To reload: Dial *123* + call card number + PIN + #sign. Do not put spaces in between this sequence. Press SEND (or CALL, depending on your phone menu).
2.A confirmation message will flash on your screen.
“Please wait while we process your request.”
3.You will receive a message “Reload successful. Your new balance is Pxxx”.
If your roaming in Canada or other Zone 3 countries and you want to load credits using Call & Text Card, just text LOAD + call card number + pin send to 2215. Do not put spaces in between this sequence.
*Make sure you pack enough Globe Prepaid Plus credits before you leave.

March 16th, 2009 at 5:39 pm
Last week, I had my roaming deactivated for more than a week. And that was after i loaded P300 cellcard too. I ask a relative to call the Globe hotline and was informed that my signal will be activated within 24 hours. After three days, i still didn’t have a signal so i asked my relative again to follow up with globe. We were given the same response, and that is to wait for another 24 hours. This time though, the signal was back as promised.
I guess, you just have to request your relatives in the Philippines to follow up your roaming status with Globe especially if you know that you have sufficient account balance.

I left the Phil. six months ago and actvated my roaming before I left. I got busy and forgot to extend before expiration. I just noticed I have no more signal the other day. Is there no way to activate my cell while here in the U.S.? Thanks.
March 22nd, 2009 at 4:01 am
What your going to have to do is have someone in PI call Globe for you. If not you can always call urself long distance to their number and have it extended urself. U must make sure that you still have a balance of 100P or more.
Hope this helps.

for the people who are displaying their cell number on the web are really stupid..please do not share your phone number with the public …..please use your brains..
April 2nd, 2009 at 6:44 pm
openeye. you are right and I agree. Just try to understand that these people are desperate. The beauty of Philippine cell phone process is they can always change their sim card if something is not right. Which does not cost a lot. Thank you for your concern. But you are not helping. You can always express your concern in a better way and not talking like you got more brains. Almost all of the Filipinos living overseas are smart. Bumusina ka muna at nakakasagasa ka. I am one of the guys that gave my cell number out of desperation. I am living here in Japan for 25 years. Ano ba ang trabaho mo? OFW ka ba? Lets just limit this forum to focusing on helping others. Blame Globe not the consumer. God Bless
April 6th, 2009 at 6:41 am
I am in the us and I just recieved a OFW globe sim card from a friend down in the philippines however my cell phone that i brought back from the philippines says their is no network. I dont know if i have to buy a new phone since the one i have a nokia 1209 is a dual band if it only works in the philippines. I am mainly needing a cell phone to text back to my friends. And after a little research the globe OFW sim card seemed to be the cheapest way to text back and forth. Any advice would be great.
April 14th, 2009 at 4:27 pm
Hi Traven,
Did u try to locate the signal manually? because sometimes it do helps…
and if it still persist then i suggest you inform some relatives or friends in Pinas to help you out. All they do is go to the nearest Globe office and inquire such thing with your cell number. I experienced many times activating my line from Pinas through the help of my brother.
April 15th, 2009 at 10:29 pm

Hi.. pls help me.. just got here in california.. A relative gave me an OFW simpack.. I wonder how do i check the balance…. and how much is the maintaining balance for me to recvd call & texts???? thanks-:)
April 16th, 2009 at 9:14 am
To check your balance just enter
*122# SEND
then you should get a text letting u know your balance. but watch out I think it charges you like 50P each time.
hope this helps

I have a roaming number with more than sufficient load, but i use another number from my own country to text to the philippines. I only receive text msgs in my roaming number so my load never deducts. I just want to know do i have to reload every 60 days to prevent expiry of my load?
May 30th, 2009 at 11:17 pm
Yes you should check it every two weeks just in case so that you don’t go under because you don’t always get the advisory that you are low in load. I use chikka to send my own self load that way i don’t have to bother anyone in PI. Also your roaming is only good for 180 days so you should call every two months (if you remain abroad) to have your roaming extended so that your roaming wont get turned off.
hope this helps

When I came back to Australia, my international roaming was working allright. I can send and receive text messages from my relatives in the Philiippines. A week after I cannot send text to Philippines because of the service which is not available. How did it happen? MY niece loaded me 300pesos and I tried to send text but still service is not available and my load was gone. Where did it go? Am I just wasting money to put load and and lost my load? Tried to activate but I was just frustrated doing it again and again and again. My Mobile # is ****. Please help or if you can activate it, that will relieve my frustration. Thanks

July 13th, 2009 at 5:45 am
In Japan you should be able to connect with DoComo you have to make sure that you have an HSDPA phone. GSM will notwork on their most of their networks are running on 3G. So you must have e a 3G capable phone so that it will work there in Japan. You can always call GLobe from a land line phone to make sure that it’ll work with your phone.
Hope this helps

September 15th, 2009 at 1:46 pm
i needed to keep in touch with my fiancee’ who is in the philippines. while on my last visit, i purchased a cellphone there and a prepaid sim. i activated it 24hours before i left for home in houston texas. every time roaming is activated, my phone goes crazy. it will not respond to any buttons being pushed. i cant access my menu options at all. the only button that works with the sim card installed is the power button. my phone does respond to keypad input without the simcard installed although i cant choose a network nor txt without it. tell me what i should do.

We have the same story, I have loaded and activated for globe roaming ang I loaded it via BDO online peso account Gosh! after loading for P350.00 I tried to send text but it didn’t work. after loaded the amount, I got a respond text telling me that I have the amount load in my globe roaming meaning have sufficient amount to text to pinas. At this point I can’t send text.
Well, anyway,I will find out to see if there is an agent in New York for globe roaming, I will have a trip for personal transaction in NY, I am here in Florida.

November 15th, 2009 at 1:22 am
I am here in the States and my problem is …I load money via bank automatic load online account for my globe roaming cell phone, but I can not check how my balance is. and I realized that in every text cost me P25.00 per text which is too expensive and before your know it you ran out of load.
Unlike my USA cell phone when sending text is cheap because just $0.20 cents per text.
November 15th, 2009 at 2:03 am
hello sue
yes your text from ur globe roaming can add up each time that you send from it. I just receive my text s to it from my family. and I reply from my US phone. makes it easier. to check your balance dial *122# send this will send u a text with your balance. don’t go below P100 or it will close your account.
I use chikka to send myself load when i begin to go low.
Hope this helps.

what’s PI? shouldn’t it be RP?
November 19th, 2009 at 7:26 pm
Thank Juanito, I like to have romaing but it is really disappointing because you always load and load and you never know it you ran out of loads, I asked a friend to activate my globe because I can receive but I can’t send and I found out that I I ran out of load…so I am so tired of doing it…instead I use my USA cellphone to text. I keep my globe number for the reason that I will go home to pinas in March and use teh same globe number becuse last July of this year I was in pinas I can’t believe that I spent more than what I spent using my cellphone here in the States. This time I am tired of keeping my globe roaming but just this month I load P100 via BPI or BPO automatic load and it went thru after loading I did not use it just to have load to keep it active so meaning I load every month for P100 only….you can try to text to me to 09179597514 and see if this number is still active. Thanks Sue

It is really tiring. I believe I am not the only one experiencing having the same problem. Thanks Sue
November 20th, 2009 at 5:43 am
Hello Sue,
there is a way around that so that you don’t have to load every month. do you have an OFW sim card or a regular one? send me an email and let me know I had the same problem but was able to get it fixed. The only time that I have problems is when Globe system goes down
:o)

December 1st, 2009 at 9:39 am
Hi Lilibeth, It seems like we both have the same problem..globe cellphone roaming is sucks…its sip your load days after you load hundred and hundred or a thousand yet your roaming is not working…..and I am really tired of using Globe as it it not worth it having a globe cellphone roaming, I loaded pesos via bank online account in pinas and I noticed that my resources is geting low because of that stupid globe roaming they are just getting your money just like that and you didn’t even enjoy using yoru cellphone because it is not working or deactiavted or something. … we better off using smart roaming and compare the difference.
I asked a friend to activate over and over again and later I am tired of asking favor by doing it…and I will be in pinas in 2 months so I asked a friend to buy me a smart so that I can use it while in pinas and i can call USA from the Philippines.
December 12th, 2009 at 10:50 am
hi sue,globe really SUCKS!my husband will be home this coming april…and i want to buy SMART roaming SIM…i think thats the only soulution to my probz…
December 12th, 2009 at 11:54 am
Thanks, Juanito, My number is 09179597514 is an OFW sim card globe roaming,
Are you in the Philippines? can you activate this phone but the thing is I have P100 balance last time. I don’t know if this still active.
December 12th, 2009 at 12:06 pm
Hi Lilibeth, yes you are absolutely right! I realized that too, because you keep on loading yet you don’t know how much is the over all balance. Anyway, I will be in the Philippines in March 2010, and I asked a friend to buy me a smart roaming.

I’m in the USA. I have roaming and I tried to access my balance dialing *122# but it tells me that I am not allowed to use this service. I’m not a prepaid subscriber. I set up roaming personally in Manila at a Globe store at a mall before leaving. Any suggestions on how I can check my balance?
February 13th, 2010 at 6:43 pm
You probably have a slight problem with your Globe roaming. You should have a balance for at least a P100.00 in order to text globe by entering the *122# access the balance, and remember that in every text cost you P25.00 for 160 characters only if more than 160 then it will be charged you double the rate so you might surprise why your load is gone….because it happened to me all the time that is why I always monitor to make sure that I have a maintaining balance for P100.00 to keep my globe roaming active and to check my balance, it will not work if you have below a P100 in your globe…and the carrier who handle globe roaming is ATT&T because that is what I have at this point. You are allowed to access the balance but there is a limit to 8 or 9 times a month but you should have at least P100 minimum balance before checking. I wil not work if your have less tha P100. I do the loading balance ransfer online via bank to bank load because I bank with BDO so it is more convenient for me without asking people in the Philippines to ask fro a load.
Good Luck! don’t forget to inquire globe direct at http://www.globe.com.ph click chat and enter info what whatever you have and indentity yourself just tell your first name and your globe number, Chat with them. Sometimes the chat personnel is busy so just be patience until someone can help you.
Always go to http://www.globe.com.ph and chat with the globe representative, Click “CHAT” when you see a message online says “it’s online” then go ahead and chat and enter your name and choose globe prapaid at your choice then send …someone will be able to help you in time you have problems with your roaming. I hope with the information I gave will help you solve your problems…. GoodLuck!
I chat with them online as always. I also keep my minimum balance and have my globe roaming active because that is the only way to have my globe number active and use whenever I travel back home, and can be easiliy get intouch by my family in the USA at anytime, anywhere when I am in the Philippines and I will be in pinas in 3 weeks. same way, friends and family in the Philippines can easily get intouch with me here in the USA despite of globe rate is too expensive to reply coz our rate here cost P25.00 per text for 160 characters, I spent more than what I paid in my monthly usage at t-mobile but have no choice but to keep up my globe number active.
