Globe Landline users to enjoy P0.15 per second IDD Sakto Calls to 15 destinations

Globe, a leading telecommunications company in the Philippines, has extended its P0.15 per second IDD rate promo to all Globe Landline users, thereby, providing families of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) with another low cost alternative in getting in touch with their loved ones abroad.

The Globe Landline IDD Sakto Calls gives discounted per second charging for calls to USA, Canada, Australia, Saudi Arabia, Hawaii, Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, China, United Kingdom, Malaysia, Taiwan, Thailand, Kuwait, and Equatorial Guinea. Calls to the rest of the world are charged on a per minute basis at the regular rate of $0.40 per minute or around P18 per minute.

The service combines the convenience of per second charging and the affordability of a cheaper calling rate. It is ideal for those who do not need to stay long on the phone since they will only be charged for the airtime consumed. At the same time, the discounted rate to select destinations makes calling abroad much more affordable.

To use the IDD Sakto Calls, Globe Landline postpaid subscribers need to complete the following dialing sequence: 12800 + + + while Globe Landline prepaid subscribers need to complete the following dialing sequence: 12898 + 12800 + + + . The 12800 dialing prefix will replace the “+” or “00” that precedes an international number. Without the 12800 prefix, subscribers will be charged the regular IDD rate. No registration is needed.

At the same time, the Globe IDD Sakto Calls is available to all Globe postpaid, Globe prepaid and TM mobile subscribers who can also enjoy the P0.15 per second IDD rate to the same destinations.
