Postpaid sub-blocks
Globe issued postpaid lines in five-digit ranges inside the 0917 and 0925 blocks, such as 09173, 09175, 09176 and 09178. These are still Globe; the fifth digit only hints that the line was originally postpaid. Each five-digit block with meaningful search interest has its own page linked from the parent prefix.
