Smart is holding a whole-day Independence Day Sale today. This is a nationwide sale for folks who subscribe to their postpaid line, the Smart Freedom Plan. However, reports are coming in from around the country that the sale was in complete chaos and disarray.
Independence Day is just around the corner and Smart is proposing that you celebrate it by signing up to their customizable Freedom Plan. We assume that that’s not how you plan to spend your holiday, but they have some pretty interesting offers that are sure to make you reconsider.
Globe Telecom has finally confirmed that all iPhone 5 postpaid subscribers will get access to their LTE network at no additional charge. This means that if you are currently on a MySuperSurf data plan, you can get LTE for free.
According to Smart, these are the areas where their HSPA+ base stations or cell sites are available so you can expect speeds of up to 12Mbps here using Smart Bro Rocket Plug-It.

One of the greatest advantages the Philippines have in the world of BPO is that we got really cheap labor and we’re relatively very good in English. That’s why we’re one of the top suppliers in the call center industry. And it doesn’t stop there.

After several email exchanges from the marketing people at Globe Innove, they’ve asked me to hook them up with active bloggers down south.

Though I have several people bloggers in mind down south, I’d like to open [...]
