Why SMS rates are still not down to Php0.80?

well that is one of the problems here in PH…mga gamahan sa pera. From Government officials to Telcos to private institution.

But then again, nung free naman ang SMS dati, sobra naman mga tao magpadala ng SMS, na nagmemessage failed pa talaga.

Hayz! Nasa tao lang talaga…Sana meron ulit isang bagong telco na magpapabago sa flow like what Sun did (but sad to say, it was acquired by smart)

Cause Pinoys doesn’t care… pag tumagal ng few months ang unresolved issue, nakakalimutan na… and move on to the next issue…

This will be brought up sa next election… pang commcercial ulit ng mga politiko…

It’s because the administrative agency NTC does not have the power to impose upon the tele companies how much they will charge, because the law wanted to deregulate the industry. Unfortunately, the free market economic principle behind the law is not functioning because there is no real competition since now, only two companies dominate the entire industry.

i was wondering the same thing, kung bakit di na implement. siguro mahiba ang ntc o posible nag bribe ang telcos ng bilyon bilyon para manahimik ang ntc.

nasan na ang media para maungkat uli ang issue?

Mga taga NTC nagno-Noynoying. lol

same reason as to why the Chinese got away with their illegal cargo on Scarborough standoff, the government ain’t got balls. even our president doesn’t look like he’s getting laid

that’s the problem with our government… so many laws and yet kulang sa implementation.

This will cost Enrile’s popularity… Lower than 20%, I think? :P

(Just my opinion) If you want lower SMS then you should change your network to SUN Cellular. They offer TU200 which will give you 500 free SMS to other networks and unlitext sun to sun.

SMC? you mean the mother company of wi-tribe? nah! wi-tribe is a crap..

lower the rates?? haha. what if they agree to lower the rates then abolish unlimited txt promos… with unlimited text offerings from telco companies, i would not care how much an sms is worth.

coming from an urbanized “province”, i see these people in manila on tv complaining about how “expensive” 1 peso is for a text, manila?? i’m in the province but i’ve never seen anyone complain how expensive 1 peso is for a text

ganyan rin naman yung rate noon pa mn aah, kun iisipin mu nga, mahal na nga yung piso noong 2000, yung sine 40 lang nung 2000, eh ngayun 120 pataas na, ehh yung load piso parin, bakit pa kayu nagrereklamo ??

gusto nyo kasi lahat ng gusto nyu ibibigay agad nang wala kayung ibibigay na kapalit, isip-squatters, hinihingi na nga lang ng mga telecommunications companies eeeh piso para sa isang text mo, suweldo yan ng mga libo-libong pinapagtrabaho nila at maintenance ng kanilang gamit, kayu may sini-suweldohan ba kayung libo-libong tao na dapat iba-baba yung load para sa inyu ?

at negosyo yan, hindi charity funds, kung may negosyo ka at binebenta mo sasakyan sa halagang 850,000 peso, at may tatawad ng 680,000, magpapa-uto ka rin ba at bibigay mo ng 680,00 ?? eh ang laki ng 5k, SAME PERCENT ANG BINAWAS KO SA EXAMPLE KO, 850,000 x 20% = 170,000 — 850,000 – 170,000 = 680,000 tulad ng 1.00 x 20% = 0.20 — 1.00 – 0.20 = 0.80 <<<

at bakit nag-rereklamo kayo kahit ang mura2x na nga ng piso?? anu ba kayu mag-text ?? kada minuto nagtetext kayu??
kung ganun bakit ?? uso pa ba sa inyu ang "textmate2x" ?? suuuus, ang baduy2x naman, nag-te-textmate2x pa!

at saka "government2x" pa yung pinag-tatapon nyung depensa, lahat nalang gobyerno, bakit di nalg kayo mag-trabaho ng mabuti para makabili ng load ?
