how to save on mobile internet

**badkuk** · June 28th, 2017 09:38 AM

Any tips? Am currently using Globe prepaid, then nagsusubscribe na lang ako to GoSurf299. i also redeem Rewards now and then for mobile internet.

Cheaper kaya pag Smart?

Google for Globe prepaid tips and tricks ... currently using 246.00 monthly for 500 minutes Globe/TM calls, 1000 all net SMS and 1GB data ... good thing is you can rollover to next month any unused minutes, SMS and data ...

Bro much better ang internet connection overall ng Globe vs Smart imho. Stick with Globe. Mas mura internet sa prepaid nila.

Hindi risky ito? I read some people tried to avail of these bugs, but if you are unlucky enough to have Globe fix it before you register, then you will still be charged and get nothing.

I am amazed, this is super cheap, for 300/month my starter plan, I only get 300 mins call Globe/TM, 300 all net texts and 200mb data, it can also be rolled over indefinitely.

If you are using android it has a setting that you can turn off background mobile data. This means it will not allow apps to use the internet in the background while mobile. Also use Facebook lite and messenger lite of you must have these apps.

My colleague is using this and yes I am amazed pag nakita ko free minutes (unli ata globe to globe) and texts niya.

Is that illegal? Or hack? Glitch?

How come allowed kay globe?

Go to settings, then Data Usage. Then click the menu on the upper right corner. There should be "restrict background data" there.

This will block apps using internet on background, but you will still be able to use internet when the app is on foreground. Also works only mobile data, when on wifi it won't be blocked.

But of course it will also block your email and messenger apps since those are backgrounds. So you won't get update unless you sync the email manually or connect to a wifi.

you could also restrict apps individually....
