Philippines mobile service provider Globe Telecom on Friday announced the re-launch of free data offer for accessing social media network Facebook.
Globe Telecom in a statement said that the company is looking to dominate its mobile data business with a substantial growth of its mobile data user base.
The Free Facebook offer will be available on Globe Telecom’s postpaid, prepaid, and TM customers at zero data charges and without Wi-Fi needed.
Globe Telecom will progressively roll-out access to the social networking site to its over 43 million mobile customers between October 3 and 5.
Customers can access Facebook on feature phones and smartphones via Facebook app or mobile site m.facebook .com.
Globe Telecom is not keeping any restrictions on the megabyte (MB) allocation per day to access the site. This apart, its prepaid customers need not maintain any balance.
For accessing Facebook, customers need not purchase data plan to avail of the promo, and should register once. Those who subscribed to Free Facebook previously and did not opt-out do not need to register to the offer.
“With our better and bigger Free Facebook, customers enjoy all-you-want access without any MB cap, no daily registration needed, and no maintaining balance. Globe users can enjoy sharing, liking & posting on Facebook for free,” says Globe Chief Operating Advisor Peter Bithos.
