#pldt slow internet

PLDT has issued a statement saying that its subscribers may experience slow or no internet connection due to cut cables. According to ABS-CBN News, PLDT said in a statement on Thursday that fiber optic transmission cables were cut by "civil works of a third party in Alabang," causing internet connection problems in some areas of Las Piñas, Muntinlupa, Parañaque, and Laguna. A congressional investigation into the costly, slow, and difficult-to-use internet services in the Philippines is being pushed by lawmakers. The Philippines continues to lag behind multiple Asian countries because its internet service remains slower and more expensive, which creates negative effects for students, workers, and families throughout the country. PLDT and Google’s Taara project have brought fiber-like internet to Barangay Subay in Talim Island, Rizal without laying a single underwater cable. PLDT Home has launched a prepaid version of its fiber internet service, offering Filipino households a flexible alternative to traditional postpaid plans. With this offering, PLDT Home seeks to provide a practical internet solution that aligns with the growing demand for digital connectivity in Filipino homes.
