    Is anyone experiencing this? I noticed since 2022 I've been receiving at least 3 spam messages a day! It was during the pandemic when I gave it to some government agencies and utility companies but it's only this year na I am spammed daily! Sometimes I get these stupid messages during ungodly hours so now I silent my phone before I sleep

    What is happening with Globe??? I am so unhappy with their service lately but I am stuck with this number

    Experienced the same also.
    Mga advertisement about the gaming platform (equivalent sa e-sabong ata) narereceive ko.
    Hindi naman ako nag ee-sabong.

    I do, I am blocking numbers daily. It's different numbers doc e. I checked my blocked numbers folders and I have hundreds of it. I get more spam messages that real messages (from my contacts)

    Same thing with my smart. This started ever since I've used my number on health declaration form during pandemic and other shops. Pati sa lazada, may seller na panay ads sa kin. Nalalaman din pala ng seller number ng customer.

    My number is tied to a lot OTP and banking apps. Mahirap magpalit ng number. Sana noon pa eh nag 2nd number na ko at yun na lang ginamit ko sa mga forms.

    i wonder,
    can we make a formal complaint to these companies, and demand that they stop sending us their infomercials?

    Yan na din ginagawa ko, delete with auto-block. Kakainis nga Globe lately. Smart hindi naman ganun kadalas.

    Try going to the business center doc and inquire why you receive such, baka sakali may magawa sila. Pwede din kasi may nakabili na ng list of postpaid from telcos, we won't really know. At least sa BC eh baka meron sila capacity to tone down or at least limit intrusive messages.

    Or baka meron sila mas magandang palusot, entertain yourself na lang hehe
