Very unreliable! It didn’t work again just like in the fight against Cotto!

Ahem.

I have to take back my last comment. Was finally able to get into WatchPad and it worked fine!

Resolution wasn’t best but the streaming was fine without any buffering or stops/

Props to PLDT. Worked this time!

what more can you expect from pldtdsl? nothing but sorry ass excuses as well lies in advertising. Gma 7 suck big time as well. i wont pay a penny just to watch this fight. its cramped!

Totally sucked.

Registered as required and I am a MyDSL 1299 subscriber.

Logged in before the fight and it was already choppy with significant lag/buffering time.

Got out for a bit and have not been able to log back in. Error messages and the WatchPad app keeps on crashing.

Really crappy customer experience; PLDT shouldn’t even have tried this.

marami na nagsbe nyan that when they subscribe, they didn’t get what pldt has promised. umasa lng daw sila.. –

as for me, what i do is to lock myself in the room watching the regular telecast and no changing in news channels. even delayed i still feel it is the live broadcast haha — crazy me lol

Maybe they should include the sentence: “Service Guaranteed or Get Your Money Back!” Maybe..just maybe people will believe they can deliver.

Whoa! Hope this time “I’ll be sweeter”, as the song goes. Last time I heard, heavy traffic scored a knockout on this service.

ooops….. there are a lot of ways to watch the fight and some are more reliable…. a lot are also free….

too bad I can’t watch it since it requires Windows Media Player (already shifted to Linux Mint) unless I try it with Wine. (test it later)

i doubt it if makakasurvive ang watchpad na yan. sa sobrang dami ng traffic baka bumigay ang system. masakit sa ulo pag nagbabuffer. nakakawalang gana.

I sure hope they’ll hit the spot this time, we all know what happened the last time they advertise the Pacquiao – Cotto fight. It was a knockout on PLDTs part.

There’s no harm in trying, since watchpad is free to MY DSL subscribers… unless they changed that already… hmm….

Mas okay pa nga ang Stream sa SOPCAST libre na hindi pa sira… I doubt kung maging okay yang watchpad this time baka hindi kayanin ng system nila. Tsaka may problem sa Terms and Conditions pag nagregister kasi anytime in the future pagnaisipan ng pldt magcharge ng fee eh automatic ka na malagyan ng charge sa bill mo kaya beware guys.

ALWAYS READ THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS BEFORE SIGNING UP SA ANYTHING LALO NA SA MGA FREE SERVICE KUNO.

Haayy sana maging efficient na sila this time, pero back up nalang sa pay per view kaysa mainis ka imbes na maexcite ka sa laban

I don’t think they have subjected the watchpad through massive traffic generated testing. Streaming through sites like Justin.tv was better to think that these sites are accessed by more viewers. And before attempting another pacman fight, which could result to the dissapointment similar to the last fight, they should have showcased similar viewings to test if they are indeed ready, (opening and closing of the winter olympics for example).
