In response to escalating tensions in the Middle East, Globe is extending free postpaid roaming credits and prepaid load to Filipinos in Lebanon.
Several nations have urged their citizens to evacuate Lebanon due to fears of intensifying conflict following the assassination of Hamas leaders, with Iran holding Israel responsible and promising retaliation.
To assist Filipinos in Lebanon in communicating with their families, Globe has begun providing bill credits to Postpaid subscribers and distributing free load to Globe Prepaid and TM customers, enabling them to make calls and send texts to all networks.
Globe and TM customers can connect to roaming partners Alfa and MTC Touch to access call and text services. Globe Prepaid and TM customers will receive a confirmation message informing them of the free load, while Postpaid customers will see the bill adjustment for services used in Lebanon in their subsequent bills.
“In times of uncertainty, staying connected with loved ones is crucial. As Filipinos in Lebanon grapple with the escalating unrest, Globe is offering them a free and open line of communication back home. We hope that this connectivity support will provide some peace of mind to our overseas Filipinos and their families,” stated Paula Rivera-Castillo, Head of Globe International Business.
