In a TV commercial aired last Saturday, PLDT introduced a new DSL plan which offers up to 10Mbps for just Php4,000. That makes it the top broadband offering under the myDSL service line-up (PLDT MyDSL Plan 4000).
Prior to this, they have a Plan Xcel 3000 at 5Mbps. The Plan Xtreme 4000 doubles that speed up to 10Mbps. The plan is not yet up on their website but a release sent to us this evening shows the new one.
Take note though that this is for residential line and it’s not really a guaranteed speed. My 2Mbps Plan 1995 only gives me somewhere around 1Mbps so I’m thinking a Plan 10Mbps should deliver 5Mbps on a regular peak hours.
Anybody willing to shell out Php4,000 a month for 10Mbps?
i was a subscriber way back when it was 384Kbps. i remember those pricing, and i guess i’ll stick with their lower tiered plans and not go with the higher end/tiered plans.
but data capping still exist right? thats why they put recommended use, if you exceed then your connection will slow down.
not for gamers…
Good thing you guys have PLDT and their seemingly attractive DSL Plans. If PLDT comes on our area, I will immediately take the Fibr Plans.
Here in Binan, we’re stuck at a local telco (as you all know, there is no PLDT or Globe Wired on the area due to Monopoly) that offers P2750 for 2MBps… (yay high price T_T)
The only consolation I got despite the high price is that the connection is literally 256KB/sec or 2Mbps all the time. But I’ve been using it for a Month now… I’m still quite scared though.
Pero kahit na years behind pa rin ang Pilipinas sa in terms of speed and price ng internet. hay.
magalit kayo pag may problema sa connection nyo, wag nyong tigilan hanggat di naayos.. ganyan ako before! pero ngayon dalawang shop ko 10mbps na ang gamit, yung isa pumapalo ng 9.45/ yung isa naman 11.85, sikreto MAGALIT kayo ng MAGALIT hanggat di nyo nkukuha yung serbisyong binayaran nyo!
ASA PA KAYO SA PINAS? MAG NAKAW NA LNG KAYU NG WIMAX CONNECTIONS NANG BOTH NETWORKS..
NA IGANTI NYO NA YUNG MGA KAPWA PINOY NYO!
MONOPOLY NA KASI NANGYAYARI SA PINAS KAYA HAWAK NA NILA LAHAT NG PRESYO DITO! LOL!
e ano na? fix to? hahaha

Sorry but you’re dreaming. That will stay a “wish” forever :)
I wish google comes to philippines and offers it fibre up to 1Gbps for only $70. I’ll surely get it whatever happens -_-
yup …, mabilis naman talaga ang pldt… justdo some twist… pero ang prob ngayun… ang bagal ng process magpakabit.. ^_^
I have PLDT and Globe DSL (both at up to 3 mbps). Parehong maayos sa area ko (Batangas City). And nag-a-average ako ng 2.5 mbps kahit peak hours.
Kung hindi ko lang kailangan talaga ng back-up/redundancy, mate-tempt akong kumuha nyang 10 mbps connection.
And to think we used to pay 2k for a 56Mbps dial up connection that 4k for a 10Mbps one is “expensive”.
para sakin ang PLDT manloloko ng consumers alam nyo kasi base on my experience 2 pldt dsl connection ko isang 1.5 at 3mbps pero pareho lagi na didisconnect tumawag na ako ng service pinalitan ng modem tapos ok habang andun sila pero pag alis ng technical nila wala na balik sa problema. palagay nyo ano experience nyo!
Is it true that these prices (999 for 1mbps and 1995 for 3mbps) are actually just the internet price, and that PLDT forces you to buy a “package”…for example, my friend says that he has PLDT at 786 (lower than the 1mbps) and his cost per month is 1,300…he said it’s higher because they force you to buy the package with the phone line. So for example, the price of 999 above for 1mbps actually will cost much more than that because they make you buy a “base package’ which includes a phone line and some other nonsense. Is there any validity to this or did he just get screwed over?
