PLDT announces Wireless Landline


Looks like Bayantel and Globe are getting some more competition on the wireless landline market. PLDT Landline Plus is the new wireless offering and prices are even more competitive the existing ones.


PLDT Wireless Landline Plus

PLDT uses Smart’s existing cell networks to operate the wireless landline via GSM. Bayantel and Globe on the other hand works on WCDMA which is why they broadband internet capability. PLDT Wireless Landline does not.

    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….

    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..

    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!

    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.
