PLDT announces Wireless Landline

It’s like having another mobile phone with more free call and text credits.

Isn’t wireless landline an oxymoron ?

You know naman here in our country, hardsell lagi, to the expense of creating new words and phrases, even if its an oxymoron or just plain…. you know…

10 hours call per month for PLDT… pretty useless.

I guess that’s the catch for getting nationwide coverage :p

i know the answer na

baka humina na ang texting ngayon

10hours per month? what the?

PLDT not practical limited ang calls only 10 hrs/ month ? plus intallation fee, plus mahal pa ang Unit, anyway im using Bayan Span Now , im experiencing little inconvenience , but still its practical and ko sa budget.

@hazel

you’re wasting your money babe. Go get a Bayan Wireless, we’re using bayan wireless phone for over a month na with IDD, NDD calls, and wallah! Business keeps on running while we sleep :D.

is there extra charge for internet using bayan span or it’s inclusive of the package?

I have tried BAYAN! It’s absolutely useless, even it has full bar signal, still this landline will give you a hard time to reach people’s number. Definitely its not advisable during emergency! Sayang lang pera mo! Just use your cellphone if you have one!

BayanSpan is cheap and wise but the billing sucks, my bill arrives after my line has been disconnected and they ask me to pay the full amount without any considerations that the last month of my billing was never consumed because my phone is cut. I am blaming them but they always say “I-check lang po namin sa records namin”.

I was thinking of switching to PLDT pero when I read na limited lang calls nya, what the heck.

Mas gusto ko pang makipag-away sa Bayantel kesa magbayad ng mahal sa PLDT. hehehehehe.

pangit pldt wireless mrn limit ang local calls. useless dba. ang pangit pa ng mga unit nla mukang remote control ng tv. nakkhyang dalin outside, coz its look like a tv remote control. mas ok ang bayan wireless units, very cute dhil small & celfone tlga.

Kawawa naman kaming smart postpaid subscribers. Ginamit nila ang network namin for their landline plus. Ang catch eh ang mura ng calls. Ang daya!

Nakuha ko ito sa isang blog.

•PLDT inadvertently reveals huge profit markup on SMART’s cellular service
•In case you were wondering how SMART can afford those massive advertising campaigns…
•Smart’s prepaid cards are about Php 6.50 per minute rounded to the highest minute
•Smart’s best postpaid plans come to about 4.58 peso per minute but you would would have to pay for 3500 pesos worth. 764 minutes or 12 3/4 hours.
•PLDT now offers what they call a wireless landline but it uses Smart’s cellular service as its carrier.
•PLDTs but they charge only 600 pesos for 600 minutes (10 hours). Even if you go over 600 minutes they still only charge you 1 peso per minute. Local Long distance is 5 pesos. Calling a cell phone is 6.50 per minute which makes me wonder why considering it’s the same system they charge 4.58.
•Even Smart to Smart is still a whopping 3.56
•So net of discussion, Smart and PLDT can still make a profit charging you 1 peso per minute, and yet for reasons that seem wholly arbitrary they will charge you 4-7 pesos per minute. A 300-700% markup just because its called a cell phone
•They must really think the public is stupid
•Now in an act of unbridled arrogance, PLDT is offering a SIM that you can put in any cellphone to avail of 50 free 5 minute calls (Say I love you faster honey) and 2 pesos a minute there after.
•The ultimate insult to SMART subscribers is that their current system isn’t configured for lots of calls, mostly its for texting, but with PLDT burdening the system with cheap talk, Smart subscribers will increasingly find good connections to be a thing of the past.
•Join the protest! Switch your cell phones from (not very) SMART to Globe or SUN and show SMART/PLDT that you won’t be jerked around anymore!

I am putting up a business in Metro Manila and need a landline for prospective customers. Noticed that people prefer calling landline than via cellphone.
Bayantel better?

ngayon naka lock ako sa bayantel, mas maganda yung offer ng PLDT Wireless landline.. ngayon pwede ka na maka roaimg…
Halimbawa: mayroon kayo PLDT regular landline sa manila, apply lng kayo 2nd line PLDT WIRELESS PLUZ. ma dagdag sa bills mo 360.00 lng… unlimited calls local, PLDT NDD CALLS 1.00 / NDD others network 5.10 / celfone calls 6.50.
nag punta kayo sa Cebu.. pwede mo na dalhin yung Pldt wireless landline pluz sa cebu. tatawag kasa manila local lng… ito lng maganda sa pldt.. D ko alam kung yungg techincal nila kung marunong mag trouble shoots. or i mean Deeper problem not light problem.. kasi yung bayantel almost 2 years na wala parin action case namin did2. bukas ma lipat na ako sa PLDT…
While Bayantel Walang UPDATES. dami pa problem sa others provinces sa SMS walang action..

how & what hardware will be used to connect to fax machine?

We are very happy to have PLDT services in all our houses but this fast 6 months we have been informing personally and by phones in all the areas of PLDT hotline services,etc… but no actions replied. They were telling that they were “prioritize” our complains etc… but NO! we are waiting for them to repair it for 6 months. So i hope this kind of problem will be solved. Not even a reply note or notice…nothing….

how can we use a bayan wireless landline for fax machine?

shiiit ang mga tao dyan sa bayantel… puro magnanakaw… ng pera ng subscriber, ng unit ng company, tanga lang ang company, d nila alam na ninanakaw na ng mga agents nila ang mga units ng wireless phone nila para ibenta kht d namn mag aactivate kc later madedeclare na stolen unit… tanga ang presidente ng company nila. nakakaaawa naman sya. ginagago na ng mga empleyado, sitting pretty pa…
