I’ve been using Smart’s UnliSurf offer (UnliSurf 50) for some time now especially when going out of town and use the Smart Buddy Prepaid SIM card with a USB dongle. The offer is now available with SmartBro Prepaid SIM cards too with the new UnliSurf 100.
To activate the UnliSurf service, just text Using Your SMART Bro Plug-it account:
Text “UNLISURF 100″ to 2200 (for Unlisurf 100 – 2 days unlimited)
Text “UNLISURF 200″ to 2200 (for Unlisurf 200 – 5 days unlimited)
This promo is until November 30, 2010.
I would rather stick with my Sun Broadband Wireless. its much faster than Smart Bro. Smart’s services are getting worse.
Otherwise, they cut the “capping” thingy I will go back to smartbro. Sun is definitely better than smart

Have you ever tried the 1 day unli in smart bro? I’m not sure if it is still working right though…
just send “Unli 50″ send to 211. Viola, 1 day unlimited internet.
It works for both Smart Buddy and Smart Bro.
*suck – look up subject verb agreement.
SUN and Globe is the best.
I use globe tatto0 usb dongle,and when day time the c0necti0n was fast than br0wsing at night time.My nephew use smart bro prepaid usb d0ngle and its a little bit slow.thats why i just stick to globe,i want to try also using sun br0adband in the near future
Globe is the fastest but not consistent in speed as well it is not well distributed in terms of speed like when i browse it really sucks but when i use it for torrent and for vidoes streaming its very fast, its weird.
Smart really sucks! although its fast at a certain time only, actually i wasted a 5 day unli thats why it really sucks!!!!! then i never load my smartbro.
Sun is reliable but not consistent in speed as well not as fast compare to Globe.
Im using Windows 7 and i tried them all in Manila and in Makati, actually i only use Globe for downloads for torrent as well for streaming videos.
What do you think about this guys?
@dan, you POS grammar nazi
Well, Im stick to my GLOBE Tattoo Bcoz eto lang yung may Signal sa may Bulacan. Smart mahina signal and ang SUN naman walang signal dun.

I never experience a good Smart broadband connection so far. It’s Globe broadband that is better in our area. I guess we cannot really expect a consistent good connection on wireless internet for obvious reasons, at least not at this time.
iPad 3G user here using smartbro and smartbuddy prepaid sims, cut for the iPad Microsim, Smart is the only network you can register via web connect for unlisurf 50 for buddy and unlisurf 100 or 200 for smartbro, if Sun and Globe would have this service, the problem is the only way you can register for sun and globe is through text, lets face it if you don’t avail of the unlisurf for the iPad 3G, mobile internet browsing will cost a lot.
Yet to try Globe. Happy with smart here @ my location.

This is good news. Although, I have already subscribed to their plan 999, it’s much cheaper especially for a regular internet user like me.
Smart + broke = Smartbroke..
kung sa manila k lng naman, mag sun ka!
Pero kung out of town tiis ka s smart kc tlgang nationwide coverage ng signal nila kesa s globe… Kht mabgal atleast meron. Kung tlgang ayaw mo maghanap k n lng ng internet shop, wifi hotspot
Guys, what’s the difference between the smart buddy prepaid sim card & the smart bro prepaid sim card? Can i use the sim cards for both cellfone(calling/texting) ang PC(surfing the net)?
Which sim card(smart buddy or smart bro) would you recommend for me to buy?
TIA guys!

That’s weird.. I use a Smart Bro Plug It Prepaid and I can get a decent 1 to 1.5mbps(HSDPA) here in QC near eastwood city anytime though there are days where I barely go beyond 500kbps(HSDPA).. But I enjoy using it with streaming videos from mysoju, viikii or youtube… I download torrents occasionally and it’s ok for me with speeds bumping to 2mbps(HSDPA) sometimes but it’s generally along the 1-1.5mbps(HSDPA) range.. I run a notebook with Win7Ultimate 64-bit..
However, with the feedback here.. I might buy a Globe Tattoo kit..
I tried it but smart won’t register me even though I have 104 balance in my account…weird…can somebody tell me why?
