Can I check my Globe load via their website?
Yes, you can also check your load balance by going to globe.com.ph.
Just register your mobile number after signing into the website, which will provide relevant details to your account.
Can I check the load balance of other users?
This is possible if you are a TM subscriber, and you can also enable or disable your account from being enrolled in the service.
You just need to dial *143# and go to Account, then Balance Inquiry.
From there, you need to select the option that you want to check the load balance of another user.
You can choose to proceed with the inquiry, but you can also disable your number from being checked by others.
Alternatively, you can also allow all numbers to check your prepaid balance.
However, there will be a message that says the number is not enrolled in the service if the other person did not enable it.
If you really want this feature, you can try mobile number porting from Globe to TM.
If you want to be able to check another person’s mobile load in real-time, the best option is to just enroll both your accounts in the new GlobeOne app.
Why is the new GlobeOne app not displaying the year of expiry?
Globe may still be working on improving the new GlobeOne app for the users.
However, remember that all load amounts have a set validity period of 1 year.
So don’t be surprised if you see a very near date as it is more likely set for the next year unless you have not reloaded for a while.
Does Globe eat regular load?
One of the common complaints of subscribers is the random deduction of amounts from their prepaid load.
You may experience this if you have not subscribed to SurfAlert and you turned on your mobile data.
Globe sent an announcement that it will be activating the feature for all users.
You can also turn it on by texting SURFALERT ON to 8080, with no regular load required.
If you want to use your mobile load for surfing, you can send SURFALERT OFF to 8080.
Aside from that, you may have subscribed to a ringback tone promo that can really eat your load.
Conclusion
Globe really makes it easy for its subscribers to check their available mobile load.
Don’t forget to check your load every once in a while, to make sure you use them before the expiry date.
