Twisted and still confused
[QUOTE=PedroMorales;2294995]So you signed nothing and your passport was not stamped so no paper trail to follow up on.
Why had you not got to pay for the flight change?
So you flew out the next day? Were you kept in a holding cell? Did you exchange notes / converse with anyone?
Until you can be more specific and narrow down the reason and who may have done you in, there is no hope.[/QUOTE]Sorry twisted and still confused Pedro. Mr. Toronto did answered all your questions.
Correct you must subscribe to a promo or you will blow through your load in no time.
The Most popular Globe Promo is GOSURF50 = 50 pesos for 3 days all net text +1 GB data.
The Equivalent for Smart is GIGASURF50.
In General if you just get one sim f=go for Smart as between them Smart and Sister brants TNT and Sun have about 70 % of the market whereas Globe and sister brand TM have around 30%. Intra Network calling is the most expensive activity.
Here are some othe Smart Promo codes.

[QUOTE=BrainDrain;2294241]This a post from Manila thread.
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.

I don't mess with sim cards or having to reload every few days.

[URL]https://smart.com.ph/Prepaid/promos/type/data[/URL][/QUOTE]I use Google Fi. It is a little more expensive but I have one US number that works around the world. I have used in the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, Cambodia, Colombia, Peru, Canada, Singapore, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and of course the US. My service is active before my plane finishing taxing. I carry one phone. I don't have to fumble with or reload sim cards. I have US based English speaking tech support. My bill is simple, charged to my credit card It is rarely more than $30 month. Now you can use many phones with the service, but check the site for compatibility or any limitations your phone may have.
It may not be for everyone including penny pinchers or people who don't want Filipinas having your US number. But it is a no-brainer perfect plan for me. If you are interested here is a link that saves you $20 if you sign up. You can just check the link to see the specifics.
