What is the payback period for the FLOW Lend Loan?

The FLOW prepaid subscriber will be prompted to pay back all loans within 15 days to receive points, but ultimately, he will have 30 days to repay the loan.

How can I keep track of my data usage?

You can download the MyFlow App from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store for quick access at any time to see just how much data, SMS and voice calls have been used so far from the plan you selected.

What happens if I use up all my data during the month?

This is perhaps the most exciting and unique feature of our postpaid plans. Once your plan data is used up, you will only be charged a flat rate of $10 per additional gigabyte. You can then take control of how much additional data you would like to use. This means there will be no surprises when your next bill arrives.

Can I make International call with these plans?

We made sure we included international minutes in the plans as we know that this is important for you to stay connected with your loved ones. Both the single plans and the family plans offer anywhere local and international minutes. These give you as much as 800 minutes per month that can be used by either one user or shared so you can keep in touch with your friends and family overseas.

How much Data and Minutes do I Get?

This is one of the real exciting features about these plans. The new plans give you all the data you need starting from 10GB of data on a single plan to as much as 80GB for the family plan. The single and family plans allow you to talk as long as you like with its unlimited Flow to Flow minutes. Here’s the other great feature. All new postpaid plans come with unlimited text messaging.

Can I share my post-paid plan?

Absolutely! We have two family plans that can be shared. There’s one that can be shared between 2 people and another that can be shared among four persons. This way there’s something for everyone who’s included in the plan.

What are the postpaid plans?

We’re excited to tell you all about how we redesigned our postpaid plans just for you. These plans will give you more data, more talk time, and more flexibility in managing your bills. Whether you’re a family that wants to share your minutes and data with each other, or you are using all the data and minutes yourself, our new plans will work for you. These new and improved plans will allow you to manage your usage and stay on top of your monthly bills

Notification about WAP and MMS Services

Dear Customer,

As of July 1, Flow will no longer support picture messaging sent via SMS/MMS services, or WAP services. We would like to recommend that you use WEB browsers to access the Internet once we stop supporting WAP or WAP services.

We understand that this change may impact how you use our services but we continue to support other channels that make sharing easier.

Thank you for being a Flow customer!

Sincerely,

Your Flow Team

Why I’m seeing an alert or error message when I tried to send a message?

As of July 1, Flow will disconnect SMS/MMS services, which mean that messages that contain images won’t be able to be sent using our SMS service. You will still be able to continue using our SMS service for regular text messages. Try using messaging apps from the app store to share with friends and family.

If you are an iOS user:

  • iMessage: continue using your iMessage service to send multimedia files or text messages, as long as it is available. If you have set the option “Send as SMS” in case iMessage is not available, that message will be only sent if it does not contain any multimedia file. If there are more than 160 characters in your message, please be advised that messages will be concatenated and you will be charged based on the number of concatenated messages sent.
    • SMS: text messages without multimedia files will be sent as a SMS. Messages with more than 160 characters, will be sent as concatenated messages.
    • MMS: in the past, when iMessage was not available or you were sending a multimedia file, the message was sent as a MMS. MMS is no longer supported in the Flow network.
    • Group Messages: in the past, when you created a group message and not all of your recipients had iMessage or your iMessage was not available, the message was sent as a MMS. Please be advised that if iMessage is unavailable, you will be charged based on the number of recipients included in your message, also messages to recipients that do not have iMessage will be charged. Each recipient will receive the SMS and the sender will be charged for the total SMS sent.
  • What are ‘Concatenated SMS’? When you send an SMS message over 160 characters, the message will be split into multiple SMS. Large messages are segmented into 153 character segments and sent individually then rebuilt by the recipient’s device. For example, a 161-character message will be sent as two messages, one with 153 characters and the second with 8 characters.
