When Sun Cellular entered the scene the two 'giants' did not feel threatened by the newcomer. Sun was left behind and needed of a plan to lure more subscribers to their network. This became the origin of UNLIMITED. Sun used this strategy to lure customers, and sure enough, the population grew each week. And the strategy was so powerful that both Globe and SMART were forced to follow. Visit the Cellular Mobile Philippine Phone Sun about this.

Sun Cellular gained popularity because of its "24/7" offer of unlimited text messaging and calls for a fixed price for Sun-to-Sun transactions. This led competing networks Smart Communications and Globe Telecom to offer similar but higher-cost plans. Visit the Cellular Mobile Philippine Phone Sun about this.
