Globe offers complete digital experience for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus plans
Brings back the Reset program for recontracting customers, easy app purchase from iTunes Store
Globe Telecom officially launches the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus with its suite of compelling offers and exclusive privileges for a total digital experience for Philippine consumers.
“Finally, the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus have arrived in the Philippines and Globe is beaming with excitement to bring the latest iPhones to Filipinos. With our long-standing partnership with Apple, we are poised to provide a complete digital experience to consumers: best-in-class postpaid plans, exclusive privileges and the biggest rewards, and a complete suite of value-added services and apps,” said Issa Cabreira, Senior Vice President for Consumer Mobile Marketing at Globe Telecom.
Reset program
The leader in postpaid is bringing back its highly-successful Reset program, a Globe-first, which allows existing postpaid customers to renew or extend their existing account to get the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus. This means that if a subscriber’s 24-month contract is still not up for renewal to get a new device, a corresponding “reset fee” can be settled to get the latest devices under the same postpaid line. The Reset program is available until December 31, 2014.
iTunes apps purchase
Another exclusive offer is the easy apps purchase from the US iTunes Store using GCASH American Express Virtual Card, enabling customers to download and purchase apps, media, and games and charge it to their postpaid bill or prepaid load without using a credit card. The GCASH American Express Virtual Card is a prepaid virtual card connected to a user’s GCash mobile wallet which allows the user to shop conveniently online from local and international sites. It also provides users with added security in the form of a card that won’t get stolen, and a security code that can be renewed easily.
Discounts on iPhone accessories
New and existing customers availing of the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus from Globe are also entitled to get 35% discount on Speck, Ballistic and Tech 21 products, and 25% discount on all powerbank brands at Beyond the Box and Digital Walker stores. Customers can also get 30% discount on Moshi, Lab C and Opt cases, Belkin accessories, Milli powerbanks, Divoom and Bluetooth Speakers at Switch stores. The offer is available from November 14-16, 2014, with redemption until March 31, 2015.
