Poll: How much do you spend for your Internet?

Ok, new poll again. Just wondering how much do people spend for their internet connectivity on a monthly basis?

Options include:

* Almost free — if you get it from school or office or something similar
* Less than Php500USD 9INR 722EUR 8CNY 62 a month — mostly if you’re using prepaid dial-up
* Less than Php1,000USD 17INR 1,445EUR 16CNY 124 a month – for entry level broadband connections
* Between Php1,000USD 17INR 1,445EUR 16CNY 124 to Php2,000USD 34INR 2,889EUR 32CNY 248 a month — for mid level DSL connections, mobile broadband (Visibility, WeRoam)
* Between Php2,000USD 34INR 2,889EUR 32CNY 248 to Php3,000USD 51INR 4,334EUR 49CNY 372 a month – for mid level broadband or multiple connections
* Between Php3,000USD 51INR 4,334EUR 49CNY 372 to Php5,000USD 85INR 7,223EUR 81CNY 621 a month – for top tier broadband, multiple connections or mobile internet
* Above Php5,000USD 85INR 7,223EUR 81CNY 621 – either you gotta you got a leased line or you’re spending way too much on internet connectivity

If you’re sharing the internet cost with someone else in your place who also uses it, only indicate your own shared expenses. Likewise, if you have multiple connections (2 DSL plus WiFi plus 3G), just add them all up. If you use prepaid mobile internet like Smart 3G/GPRS, just make an educated guess how you you spent for it every month.

  18. Destiny Cable – started P2500 (unlimited) in year 2000… then lowered to P1900(512kbps – 256kbps)… and again lowered to P1688(2Mbps). Now it’s at P999 (unlimited daw, but max at 4Mbps).

  19. P2,000 for globe visibility and P1,000 something something i think 1995 for dsl which i dont really use cause it’s useless

    i used to pay P8,000 a month owith meridian before smart bought them and we cancelled our service

  20. eek, after seeing the comments, i think i’d better “downgrade” my subscription na. >

  21. eek, after seeing the comments, i think i’d better “downgrade” my subscription na. i’m spending almost 3k for pldt dsl (includes landline fee). pldt’s not offering this bundle anymore, i think.

  23. I spent 25€ a month for my monthly internet wireless connection using TIM’s HSDPA pc card here in Italy, free internet connection from Monday to Friday from 5PM to 9Am, also free on weekends(whole day on Saturdays and Sunday) and holidays.

  34. $55 a month from cox cable here in the U.S. 10mbps

  36. Sir,

    Can you tell me how to call the Philippines from the USA using Comcast Voip???

    I wish to contact Mercury Drugs in Baybay leyte to pay for a friends perscription needs

    Will

  37. sus, gprs lang si ako, ninanakaw pa ni smart. Smart n smart talaga!!! katabi lang ng bundok mayon bahay ko.hehehehe

  38. Living in PI for the last 10 yrs., I have come to the conclusion that there is very little BB service to be had out side Manila. Of course you need to define BB, for me that would be 2mbps (NOT up to) down and 1Mbps up.
    Such a crazy mismatch quilt of companies overlapping coverage, and in the next sub-division no coverage. If I can see what ipsatellite delivers and it’s not UP TO then I will spend the $2000.00 for equipment and service.
    At the present time Smartbro is P999 and Comclark is p1350 (up to 768) more like 384 DN AND <100KB UP. For me that just sucks. If ever there was a company that induces hate, ComClark sits on top of the heap.
    If you only email and surf, SmartBro is OK, barely.
    Damm, be glad when the 2 yrs is up.

  39. I spend around P2300 a month. I have sun, globe, and wi-tribe. Wi-tribe is the fastest but limited within metro-manila. Globe and Sun are at even par. Globe signals are sometimes cut. Sun is pretty reliable in Metro-Manila. If you’re always within MM, get wi-tribe. It’s really great!
