I am Globe prepaid user since grade 4. That's like for almost 12 years. Therefore, it is a must for me to take my globe phones every time I'm traveling outside the Philippines. The first time I went abroad was 2010. I didn't encounter any problem for roaming my globe. The second time was 2012. My globe international roaming worked perfectly fine. However, during my third and fourth time, my roaming didn't work. I don't know why, but I followed and registered 24 hours before my flight. I also had enough load balance.
