The
service will start in January 13 with Globe prepaid, TM, postpaid, and Tattoo
customers. Subscribers can enjoy the telco’s world-renowned free Facebook offer
alongside free Viber with no purchase or daily registration required and
without need for Wi-Fi.

Facebook on feature phones and smartphones can be accessed via the Facebook app
or Facebook's mobile site, m.facebook.com. Moreover, there is no need for
customers to purchase any data plan to avail of the promo, and will only be
required to register once to enjoy Free Facebook all they want. Those who
subscribed to Free Facebook previously and did not opt-out do not need to
register to the offer.
Meanwhile,
free Viber can be accessed by simply downloading the app on their smartphones
to be able to chat away for free.
Globe
forged exclusive partnerships with Facebook and Viber in 2013 to offer its
customers free access to the world's leading social networking site and
messaging app enabled by service innovations for a seamless browsing
experience. Since then, Globe has seen double-digit growth in its mobile data
users on the back of the increasing penetration of smartphones, rise in mobile
internet adoption, and usage of applications and over-the-top (OTT) services
for a richer mobile experience.
Aside
from this innovative offer that strengthens the telco’s commitment to serving
customers’ digital lifestyles, Globe is also offering GoChat10 starting January
13. With GoChat10, Globe prepaid customers get unlimited texts to Globe/TM plus
unlimited access to popular apps such as Facebook Messenger, Viber, Line,
