simangot, i suggest your GF switch to smart sim in pinas. I will tell you some encouragement and ideas. And advantages and disadvantages of both Globe and Smart. Here it goes:
With SMART, you dont have to load everyday or every week just to maintain your sim or be activated. you can do SmartLoad or Over The Air Reload once in 3 Months. The sim will be deactivated within 120 days of NO LOAD. 1 Peso text from Pinas to Internatioal Roaming Sim. Smart Signal is also good in Doha. In industrial Area is good, why not in the city. :)
With GLOBE, you have to maintain a LOAD everytime for the rest of your life in abroad. Much Expensive.
With Smart, when activated as Roaming Sim, Pure Text only. While Globe, you can receive/make calls but it's expensive. International Rate Charges Apply. If you happen to buy that Globe OFW Sim, it's a BULL! They said on the TV Commercials that no maintaining balance for 1 year or Forever, i dont remember anymore. It's not True! you still have to reload within 1 month of use.
I guess you are working here in Doha, right? I bet you talk to your GF at night or after work or in the morning. Why don't you buy QTEL Sim from QTEL Offices. It's only 50QR now, i think they still have this Promo going on. Or better yet, there is this internet calls located in Doha. Maybe its in Souq or Industrial Area. 1 minute is to 1QR. Cheaper than using your QTEL SIm to call Pinas for 1.85QR per minute.
