Since entry was denied at the airport it must be one of the minor offenses otherwise they would have arrested Toronto on the spot and he would have discovered that prison is not more fun in the Philippines at all.
I see two options, forget about the Philippines and find another mongering destination lots around, or look into having the ban lifted.
Even if just out of curiosity, I'd look into what happened so I could possibly avoid this sort of problem here or elsewhere in the future.

(it was actually flagged but the Phils don't care and never reported back to the Mounties.).
I take it your passport is stamped denied entry. Consider getting a new passport.
You could clear this up in Canuck land by finding out from the Mounties if you were blacklisted / flagged and getting them to refund your plane fare. You have to know if you are flagged anywhere else as the enemy probably made out you were in other places too.
If you do get in cleared up in Canuck land, there is no guarantee you can enter the Phils again as efficiency is not their strong card. And you don't want to engage with their legal system.
If you are very sure of your ground, I would approach the Canuck authorities as they probably are keeping an eye on you. You must relax and try to find out who shopped you but you have probably showed your hand to them and they are happy with the result and are planning their next move against you.
In case anyone wants to criticise the above, I am deadly serious. And: The Philippines is one of the slackest places so be careful. I feel it important to find out if it is only the Philippines. Unlike the others, I am pointing the finger to Canuckland (gut feeling and other stuff I won't go on about).

Beating the claim is going to suck time, money and perspiration that could be better spent elsewhere. As CM said, there is also the chance that he could gain entry only to find himself subject to a similar trumped up criminal charge.

The issue with your load is that you were on a casual plan. Your phone is using load just on data pings. The only way to use a prepaid mobile in Philippines is on a "promo".
I only know Globe promos, I suggest something like GOTSCOMBODD90 which you text to 8080.
This text and data promo comes with 2 GB mobile data and texts to all networks valid for 7 days (1 week) – for 90 pesos.

Plenty lawyers around but many have the habit of charging high and doing zero. And you won't find out until you have paid a lot beforehand!
But PM me I know a good one who represents old Manila friends assuming you want to go that that route, he has helped a few old friends in the past including me.
Westies. The 6 month PP rule applies to many countries and if taking a pinay out of the Philippines it is the first thing I ask her. As for US customs not knowing the rules. No surprises there LOL. Some ask and you cans how a return 'ticket' that you buy for around $10 but depends on the airline and how much sophistication the system at check in has. Many I know use this method with the budget airlines whose staff will accept a paper ticket and can't look up the booking but on bigger carriers am not too sure.

I am aware (starting about 1 year ago) that the US outbound airlines might try and stop you from boarding if there might be an issue (they are responsible for returning you from Phils to your starting point if you get the boot). For example, if your PP is near the end of its expiry, and within the 6-month limit for Phils, you might be denied boarding in the US (because the airline is responsible for your deport / return). Also 2 x in the last year a check-in agent (once in US, once in Asia) swiped my PP, took a long look at the computer screen, and informed me that I could not board the outbound flight from US to Phils. Reason: There was no return flight listed on their computer (no phils outbound), and I did not have a pre-approved 59-day visa (their computers caught this). In reality I had outbound flights on other airlines, but past the 30- and 59-day limits. Both agents told me I could not proceed. The first agent, in the US, worked for a major American airline. I mentioned to her that Americans can stay up to one year by repeatedly extending the original 30-day visa to 59-day visas. "Not. Must have a 59-day visa for that". I showed her the (much) later phils outbound ticket on the other airline. "Sorry. You can't board. I am Filipina and I know my country's Immigration laws". She had the look and accent. Well, musta mahal. I asked her to call a supervisor and look thru the Phils Immigration rules. She did just that. She and the super took more than 5 minutes reading the regulations, and they found it. "Aha. There is exception for Americans. Did not know that. You may proceed sir. ". At another airport in Asia I ran into the same thing; had to call a supervisor to help find the correct Immigration rule. Should have asked them for a screen capture of it. In both instances, their computers red-flagged the issue to start.
If computers are this sophisticated, why didn't the airline's system flag something?

Posts: 107Blacklisted
I was recently denied entry at Manila airport for being on the blacklist. I was given no explanation or reason and I left on the next flight out. I have no idea how I got on the list as I have no criminal background, never broke any laws during my previous trips and have no problems entering other countries. The only thing I can think of is one of my long term girls that I have cut off recently making some false reports to authorities. Some of those girls probably have my info because I have taken them on trips abroad and in some cases I had to sign forms at immigration to get them out. Can anyone recommend a good lawyer that can help me with this? Is it even fixable? Or should I just forget about Philippines? Thanks in advance for any help.

So I went to the General Info and grabbed your post JUST TO USE THE QUOTE TEXT (and brackets etc) so it would show up as a quote. Sorry, I didn't realize it referred to the post!

I have lived here for 21 years. I don't buy load. I have post-paid accounts and have had them for 20 years with Globe.
When I click on "view original post" in your quote I am taken to my quote about Cebu being dead and nothing about buying 100 php load cards?
Weird stuff.
