Good news to all PLDT myDSL subscribers on Plan 3000 — bandwidth upgrades have been rolling to all subs as early as first week of this month. The plan was bumped up from 3Mbps to 5Mbps.
Subscribers are getting offers of the free upgrade as long as they continue their subscriptions and lock it for another year. So far, only the Plan 3000 are being offered the upgrades while the lower tiers have not been extended the same.
This move might have been prompted by the recent offerings of other competing ISPs that offer 3Mbps and 5Mbps at prices between Php899 to Php999 (although the bandwidth is capped for these plans).
It’s a good proposition that should show what customers will be willing to shell out. Here’s the round-up:
BayanDSL
up to 3Mbps @ Php899 with 15GB bandwidth cap {see story here}
Sky Broadband
up to 5Mbps @ Php999 with 15GB bandwidth cap {see story here}
PLDT myDSL Plan 3000
up to 5Mbps @ Php3,000* without cap
We should note that the PLDT myDSL Plan 3000 also comes with a free land-line and WatchPad account and free NDD calls for 1 year.
Just got upgraded to 5mbps but speedtest showed 3.24 mbps only, dsl rep advised me to monitor within the day.
I’m current 3mb subscriber ng PLDT. As of now, may problem ako sa stability ng connection. Around 3 weeks na akong ganito. Ang sarap na nga basagin ito modem nila. Hayz!!!! Walang kwenta ang 5mb nila kung di naman stable, yung palaging napuputol ang internet connection. Sakit sa ulo kaya yun, lalo na kung may client ka na kausap sa skype tapos napuputol. Nakakahiya di ba?! Put*ang In*! na lang lagi ang nasasabi ko araw araw dahil sa PLDT na ito.
pag ganyan yung connection mo, ipa-waive mo yung bill or wag mo bayaran. kasi sayang ibabayad mu.
Throw in a free android tablet and it’s a done deal!
Called regarding this so called upgrade. And was not available for me. It seems that they are offering this to subscribers whose contract term has expired already. Since mine is not over will not be able to get the speed boost.
kalokohan to eh exclusive lng to pra sa new user!!!
tsaka kpg magpromo sila di nila sasabhin sa ad nila kung kailan hanggang may deadline pla
saw on PLDT DSL’s website that the 2mbps plan is now 3mbps.
Well after lots of complaining they finally agreed to upgrade me to the 5mbps. So far been two weeks and no change at all in speeds from when I was under the 3mbps. It seems like a ploy to get you to stay for another 12 months
free upgrade nga tataas nmn ang bayad mo nag inquire na ako nito libre daw pero di na 3000 ang bayad mo 4000 na kalokohan talaga to
pathetic. .i was informed this upgrade of bandwith is not available for us since we’re still under PLDT broadband’s old facility..isn’t that they should offer this more to old subscribers like us who’d been loyal to their company for so many years?
pag luma na mother board mo at gusto mo i-upgrade connection mo …bibilis ba 2
If only the ZTE Broadband deal pushed thru guess what 1,000 niyo is probably 10mbps by now not exagging here trabaho ba kamo ng pinoy at labor hindi naman magdadala ng container ng mga intsik ang ZTE dito magkakatrabaho pa nga reg labor fee tingi niyo ba mataas sweldo ng mga empleyado ng PLDT ofcourse don’t count the higher ups. Kayang kaya naman ng PLDT babaan yung fee pero baka mangayayat yung mga nasa itas… Pwe! Kadiri kayo!
