Globe is extending free call, text and data services to customers in Turkey after a massive 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck the southern part of the country and northern Syria.

This will allow Globe customers to use its roaming services to connect with and update their loved ones on their status in the wake of the deadly quake.

“We understand how connectivity is of utmost importance to our customers in the wake of the massive quake in Turkey.  We wish to provide them assistance so they could reach out and communicate with their loved ones back home at this difficult time,” said Coco Domingo, Globe VP for Postpaid and International Business.

Globe is extending 15 minutes of incoming and outgoing calls, 15 texts to all networks, and 1GB data (whichever service is currently available) good for 7 days at no extra cost. To avail of these free roaming services, customers only need to connect to Globe’s roaming partners Turk Telekom and Turkcell.
