Cell phone roaming charges can be very expensive. Every time I am out for the country, my GLOBE bill for the month always increases drastically. I remember one time when I was in Europe for 2 weeks, my bill sky rocketed to almost 20t Php. That for me is a big deal because on the average my monthly bill never exceeds 5t Php.
If someone calls my roaming mobile, do I incur roaming charges even if I do not answer the call? I have been receiving contradictory answers. Someone please enlighten me on the issue. I once called GLOBE's customer service hot line to ask about this and the answer I got was "No". From then on, I avoided answering phone calls when I am overseas. Just being practical, I guess.
How about you? Do you answer/make calls when you are abroad?
The cell phone bill of a lifestyle writer accumulated to a six digit figure I think he does not only answer/make calls when he is overseas. My hunch is that he runs a cell phone marathon every time he travels. With such a big usage, the management of this telecommunications company should be treating him like royalty. However, in this case, he was not. He was actually being contacted by the company's collection department because he refused to pay for the bill.
After months of not settling his outstanding bill, the media department of this company invited him for a dialogue. In the meeting, he proposed to publish several press releases in exchange of his unpaid bill. Since the company wants to maintain a good relationship with this writer, the company had no other choice but to accept his offer.
Guys, do you seriously need a clue? T.Y. for all your support!!!
