Globe Roaming Promo Validity
Globe roaming promos usage starts as soon as you first turn on mobile data and enable data roaming and use internet. The validity is based on consecutive hours or days, not on monthly or year base, so it only works for that trip. You can also pre-book roaming promos up to one year in advance using the GlobeOne App. If you don’t use a pre-booked promo, it will automatically be canceled.
How to make call while roaming?
To call abroad, dial the full international number:
+ (country code) + area code + phone number
Example: To call a US number, dial +1 316 327 301000 and press SEND.
For cheaper calls, you can use a call or text promo from the GlobeOne App.

How to Activate Roaming in the Globe for 2G and 3G Users?
Unfortunately, roaming services for 2G and 3G SIMs have been turned off by many of Globe’s partner networks. If you use 2G or 3G, your network services will not work when you go abroad.
To fix this problem, go to the Globe store closest to you and either upgrade your mobile network to 4G or 5G, based on how well Globe covers your area. After upgrading, you can use the steps above to turn on Globe roaming on your device.
