no signal smart

However, there are reports of loss in signal even as far down as Paranaque and Cavite (our team in Cavite reported PLDT Ultera services went down to a crawl and CSR confirmed) as far up as Caloocan and Bulacan. Here are copies of those SMS messages: Smart has warned that similar outages will continue to happen in the next few days (perhaps until the 19th). Cell signal is then automatically restored once the Pope leaves a specific area. Rest assured that mobile signal will be restored as soon as we get a go signal from the NTC. If you are wondering why there's no cellular signal around Quiapo and neighboring areas from Globe and other telcos today, it's because they've cut off signal for security reasons as we celebrate the Black Nazarene. The request to cut off cell signal in those areas could be a precautionary measure (probably to hinder remotely-triggered bombs). We haven't gotten any SMS alert from Smart or Sun Cellular yet as of this time. A new poster ad from Smart Bro promotes their broadband speed to be up to 2Mbps.
