Hey all, Im gonna be in Makati for a few days at the start of September. I need to pick up a pre-pay/pay-as-you-go type sim for my N900, Im told I have the choice of Smart or Globe... any difference or are they both much the same? Thx :)

If you're staying within Makati and not going out of town, then Smart and Globe are pretty much the same.

Sinulog was good but I live 4 hours north of the city, only went because my chapter (Guardians) were there. Much prefer the province to the city.

i dont know why its a hassle to find money changers in more modern cities like makati and manila than others.

i lived in the boundery of caloocan and quezon city, and money changers are around like flee markets.

globe have online payments? it was a hassle to reload my roaming globe sim for the first month i've been in canada. so my option is to sign a contract with one of the service providers here.
