Smart offers 2 hours 3G internet for Php20

Yesterday, Smart announced a new promo offering mobile internet users an extra hour for every hour of usage during off-peak times. That’s Php20 for 2 hours (Php10 per hour) between 2am to 6am.

The promo starts today and in order to avail of it, one must go to the Smart Mobile portal (m.smart.com.ph) on your phone’s browser and click on the “Free 1 Hour with Off-Peak Internet Plan” link. You need to activate it before you can get your extra 1 hour free.

You will need to have at least 1-peso load balance remaining in order to activate this and activation is only between 2am to 4am. If you go beyond the 6am off-peak hours, you will be charged the regular rate of Php10 per 30 minutes.

The off-peak hours indicated by Smart gives us some idea that 3G internet usage is still at its peak even between 12 midnight to 2am. Now that’s a lot of heavy 3G internet users.

    I really hope the telcos will come up with an unlimited browsing plan already. I think there is a market for this and they’ll make money anyway. Mobile Internet should be flat rate already.

    What kind of a promo is that? Does Smart really think we are that cheap that we have to lose sleep just to avail of their “special Offer”? Duh!!

    Make a more realistic promo, would ya?

    Is it true? I think it has hidden charges. LAst time that I used it it consume P100 of my load but I just use it for only 20 minutes.

  20. Gravatar Icon Jeff replied on Aug 25th, 2009 at 1:48 am (20)

    well, you’re not obliged to sleep late and avail of the promo. What are you thinking dude?

  21. Gravatar Icon juan replied on Aug 26th, 2009 at 4:03 am (21)

    It’s not a promo! It’s something NOT SMART but cheeky move.Walang customer sense, not really smart move, and what’s SMART’s company vision?Ano nga ba yun?

    Ang gara ng promo parang ayaw nila or napilitan lang kc ang Sun may unlimitted 24hrs for only 50 pesos..

    Nakaya nga ng Sun bat ang Smart di nila magawa….
