Fair Use Policy of Globe

Fair Use Policy of Globe, 800mb limit
800 MB Limit Reached

I've mentioned in my recent blog post that I have chosen Globe Tattoo as my internet service provider because its speed is faster compared to PLDT net at Home. But later on, I found out that there are actually limit to our surfing, download, upload and others. This is because of their Fair Use Policy.

So even if you are registered for an unlisurf for a day, a week or a month - we have a limit of 800mb data subscription per day. Shocks! I really thought that I could make the most of their faster speed but sad to say, I will just have to use this connection for surfing, answering emails and not for downloading my favorite movies and tv series. I still can't terminate my PLDT Net at home subscription unless there is  a wired connection available now in our area. :(
According to Globe:
Globe Fair Use Policy is implemented to ensure that all our subscribers get to equally share an enjoyable broadband experience. This policy is designed to protect those who might be affected by the few subscribers who use the service/promo for activities other than its intended use. We regret to inform you that Super Surf promo is subjected to Fair Use Policy which is normally used for emailing, browsing and info-searching activities. 
If you use it for purposes other than what it is designed for like sharing software and downloading files in large format the tendency is that you'll experience slow browsing. This promo has a maximum volume capacity of 800MB per account per day. If your usage reaches this volume capacity, you will be unable to browse temporarily until end of day but the service will be restored the following day. 
Meanwhile, you may still continue to browse at P5 for 15 minutes if you choose to forfeit your subscription by deactivating the service. The remaining hours of your subscription will not be credited back to your account.  
With 800 MB capacity, you can do the following activities using the Internet: 
Send/receive 22,400 plain text emails 
Send/receive 2,720 emails with document attachments 
View 2,720 web pages 
Download 200 songs 
Upload/download 1,600 social media posts 
View 272 minutes of streaming video or 4.5 hours of video conferencing with your loved ones abroad Download 1 90-minute movie
