“With the 4G LTE network, Globe customers in Bacolod City, Boracay, Cagayan de Oro and in Iloilo City now have access to high-speed internet, clearer calls and a stable mobile network. We also made 5G available in these four locations in order for them to maximize the potential and opportunities of the technology,” said Joel Agustin, Globe Senior Vice President for Program Delivery, Network Technical Group.

To fully experience the advantages of 4G, Globe customers nationwide are encouraged to check if their SIM cards are 4G-capable.  Globe postpaid and prepaid customers only need to text SIM CHECK to 8080. Those who are still using 2G/3G SIMs may bring their SIMs to the nearest Globe Stores to upgrade to 5G-ready 4G LTE SIM cards for free as long as quarantine protocols allow them to do so. Postpaid Mobile customers can also request to have their SIMs changed via the GlobeOne App.

Globe strongly supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, specifically UN SDG No. 9, which aims to build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization, and foster innovation. The company is committed to upholding the United Nations Global Compact principles and 10 UN SDGs.
