If you guys are Facebook junkies and Globe subscribers, you are on for a very nice treat.
Globe Telecom and Facebook just partnered to offer free access to Facebook.
When enrolled to this service, you can use Facebook on your mobile phone without incurring any data charges. This means that you can effectively browse your Facebook feed even if you are not enrolled to any data plan. Please be informed though that you will only incur charges when you view content outside Facebook like YouTube and Vimeo video, or going to your tech websites like Gadget Pilipinas.
I tried using this service and I can concur it works like a charm. Take a look at screenshots below.
What do you guys think about this service? The opt in notification is gently being rolled out to some users, but the service will fully be available by next week. Be sure to check back on us so we can tell you how to opt in or opt out.
