GoWiFi services have also been available since March 13 in select public and private hospitals in Manila, San Juan, Quezon City, Taguig and other areas in Metro Manila as support to the national government’s call for community quarantine in the region. This brings to a total of 68 hospitals being supported by Globe.

Globe and TM customers who subscribed to telehealth provider KonsultaMD may also consult with a doctor via the 79880 telehealth hotline without incurring mobile call charges. This is to help decongest physical consultations at hospitals and mitigate the risks of patient exposure to the virus.

In light of the COVID-19 situation Globe provides 30-day bill payment extension for all its postpaid customers nationwide

In light of the impact of COVID-19, Globe is giving all its mobile and broadband customers including business and enterprise clients nationwide an extra 30 days from the due date to settle their monthly bills.

"Globe understands that during these difficult times, the need to be connected and informed on the latest developments in the fight against the global pandemic is very important to everyone.  Globe believes the extension of the bill payment will be one less worry for our customers especially during these difficult times," Ernest Cu, Globe President and CEO said.

The move is in support of the government's call for people especially in Metro Manila to stay at home and practice social distancing to minimize possible exposure to the virus. 

To track down  data usage, subscribe to offers in order to get more data, or pay bills, Globe customers may download and use the GlobeOne app or the Globe At Home app free of charge.  GCash is also  an available option to settle their bills at their own convenience.

Aside from the 30-days bill payment extension, Globe has provided free and unlimited internet connection via its GoWiFi services at select hospitals in Metro Manila to help medical frontliners, patients and their loved ones remain connected and informed. GoWiFi is available at the following locations until April 15, 2020:

Globe customers can also access the official sites of the Department of Health (DOH) and the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRMMC) free of data charges to stay updated on the latest pronouncements coming from the government on COViD-19.

Likewise, Globe and TM customers who subscribed to KonsultaMD may  get in touch with a doctor via the 79880 telehealth hotline without incurring mobile call charges. KonsultaMD has removed the P1 per minute charge for calls to the 79880 mobile hotline to make it easier for the public to avail of medical advice anytime they want to. Aside from convenience, this service aims to decongest hospitals and immediately get medical advice especially on symptoms of COVID-19.

As more companies implement telecommuting and work from home, Globe continues to remind customers to be conscientious when using the internet by avoiding the use of torrent as this practice hogs bandwidth and negatively impacts other internet users.
