“the world is shifting into faster and faster network technologies” – yeah, but don’t count in the Phillippines. I have freedom plan from Smart and its data speed has been very slow since I got started this plan, my location is around Pio Del Pilar, Makati near Pasay boundaries and the speed that I always get is so very disappointing, to say nothing of that I have been living in this area for more than 10 years now, and no improvement since then.
