Burat talaga yang Globe na iyan. Hindi ba may ongoing complaint ang ibang telecoms sa kanila because Globelines is charging a flat rate for their NDD? Tatay pa ng kasama ko dito sa UST yung nagrerepresent sa Globe sa mga hearing. Sabi nila wala naman daw masama if they charge flat rates for their NDD calls, blah, blah, blah...

And now Globe is compalining because SUN is charging a flat rate? Ang labo ata.

well ganyan talaga...kung businessman ka eh gusto mong protektahan talaga ang investment mo at all cost... its just a matter of whether it is legal or illegal, morally right or not, fair or unfair.... it is the businessman's choice...

the bottomline is protect your business interest....no matter what...and that what they are doing right now..... Im sure kung ibababa nila nang 3.50 flat rate, malamang sun cellular naman ang magsisigaw nang unfair practice.....hehehe

This is fairly correct! Binasa mo muna at inintindi ng maigi siguro ang report bago ka nag-comment no?

Hi Carlo,
How's your OJT?

Anyway, the reports already speaks to itself. there's no need to elaborate much further.

Point is, Globe and SMART cannot dictate to Sun Cellular how to price their rates within their (Sun's) network. In the first place, SUN would not be able to offer their 24/7 rates without prior NTC approval. If the NTC revokes their approval of SUN's rates, they will get the ire of the consumers. It's like government intervention on what should purely be an interplay of market conditions.

I think SMART and GLOBE are really more scared of having their market share dwindle once SUN is able to expand its network coverage to rival theirs. There will be a migration of subscribers to SUN because of the cheaper rates. Sana nga lang, wag mag turn-around ang SUN once they have their 10 Million subscribers, like what SMART and GLOBE did when they started charging customers for SMS.

ang sakin lang ito masasabi ko sa Globe and Smart etc...

Give the consumers the right to choose...

as long as hindi bawal sa batas ginagawa ng SUN...

mag-innovate na lang sila ng new marketing strategy to retain their current subscriber.

[BlueBimmer]

yeah they should find ways to tempt the consumers back, not by feeling threatened and filing petitions to stop their rival imo. takot lng tsktsk

[KALAMPAG]

Both this giants are shouting "FOUL!" kung baga nakadyot lang ng konti eh. Ano ba naman un nakuhang share ng sun kumpara sa market share nila... its pure monkey business bullying the new kid in school.

So what's stopping them to come up with something better wala namang pumipigil (I still like my Globe). Either way.. panalo pa rin consumer which in the first place (and to remind them) is the reason why they are where they are ryt now.

If i know the attitude of these companies, they'll respond, ok you have the right to choose between the two of us only.

I think its about time the NTC took a stand and rebuffed SMART and GLOBE publicly for insisting on the higher rates they impose on their subscribers. That kind of public castigation should really open the eyes of the public.

What's more, how come they're holding hearings in closed session? Diba the consumer has a right to be represented there while deliberations and arguments are going on?

silver corolla,

well yes and no, binasa ko lang sya nang mabilisan... but since I've been working for a multinational companies, yan ang obserbasyon ko regarding sa kalakaran nang malalaking business...kasehodang me masagasaang maliliit or individual ang mahalaga lang sa kanila eh maprotektahan ang interest nila... and kahit pa yung maliliit na business, ganon din ang gagawin... I worked for a small family business and now to a multinational corporation and parehas lang ang principle regarding protecting their interest. Natural yan, normally sumisigaw nang foul yung naaapektuhan whether they are a big one or small, but later on, vice versa naman when the time comes na yung other parties naman ang medyo naaapektuhan....

Its all normal in the business world, walang personalan ika nga....

[pepengtom]

humihigpit nA Ang competition... masayado lang naapektuhan ang globe at smart sa 24/7 ng sun kaya sila ganyan.
kung hindi nila mabibili ang sun para matigil ang kakumpetensiya, gagawa at gagawa sila ng paraan para bumagsak ang maliliit na company. syempre, pera na ang pinaguusapan.

[BlueBimmer]

it may be common business practice but it isnt necessarily the right thing to do, oh well life's like that hehe

[buknoy2002]

ano kaya kung tapatan ng globe or smart yng promo ng sun?

di kaya lumipat lahat ng taga sun?

di ba may thred dito na di maka text/call during peak hours yung mga naka 24/7 plan ng sun?

mag file din kaya ng TRO ang sun?

[quiksie]

greed is all we need! pweeh!
Gahaman talaga ang smart at globe. Ngayon palang sumisikat ang sun iboblock na nila ang pag angat. Crab mentality talaga ang ugali ng pinoy!

[van_wilder]

24/7 nga hirap naman tumawag sa gabi... dibale na lang... stick to globe ako kaya hindi na ako nagrereload sa sun ko...

i dont think mabibili nila yun and mapapabagsak nila yun. i dont think maliit lang ng company ang sun... kasi gokongwei ang may-ari nun... they donated P200M last year sa ateneo, i think masmalaking funds ang kaya nilang iburn para lang isalba ang SUn..

[tagalnasaabroad]

sa ganang akin mas nakikinabang ako sa smart from where i am..kung me problema sila sa competition who cares..at the end of the day consumer parin makikinabang..

from wikipedia, the free encyclopedia..
"Deregulation is the process by which governments remove selected regulations on business in order to (in theory) encourage the efficient operation of markets. The theory is that fewer regulations will lead to a raised level of competitivness, therefore higher productivity, more efficiency and lower prices overall. Deregulation is different from liberalization because a liberalized market, allowing any number of players, can be regulated to protect the consumer's rights, especially to prevent de facto or even legal oligopolies.."

[kiper]

di lang sila makasabay sa cheap rates ng sun..

kaya eto na ang ginagawa nilang move..!!

scrutinize mo lang ng mabuti..haha pathetic!
