In fairness to Globe, despite the numerous hassles I had encountered with most of their promos in the past (see Globe OFW SIMPACK and Globe Super Surf), there still remains one promo that I am continuously enjoying since its introduction. And that is the IMMORTALTXT.
Before they introduced this promo, I was an avid fan and subscriber of their UNLITXT promo. Although this has only led me to spam almost every Globe subscriber friend on my phonebook just so I could really use the promo to its fullest. But IMMORTALTXT does not. Despite the fact that it only allows you to send 50 and 10 text messages to Globe and non-Globe subscribers, respectively, those alloted SMS will not expire until you consume it all (provided that you still have P1.00 remaining balance). I only wonder whether it would expire when the promo ended.
Recently, thanks to a Sarah Geronimo’s ad on TV, I tried texting IMMORTAL15 to 8888 and, to my surprise, I got a confirmation text saying I am entitled (not only with 50 SMS to Globe numbers but also) to a five-minute call to any Globe mobile subscriber. Googling led me to Globe’s website saying this promo is called the Globe IMMORTALCALL+.
There’s also the SUPERUNLI which allows Globe subscribers to unlimited call time (and text) to Globe subscribers for 5 days for only P150.00.
