Shet!!! Puk!!! In_ang skymobi… Ilang araw ko lng ung 6g. Nagba2yad ako ng 999… Parang hindi yata tama… Easy money lng sa kanila… Dapat magawan na ng paraan ang internet sa pinas. Hndi ung ganito. Ginagatasan ng mga mala2king companya ang mga internet user ng hindi makatotohanan. P_KSH_T!!!!

Now i know.thanks for all your comments di na rin ako bibili.i thought unli na ung streaming sa mga cable shows gagamitin pala ung data allowance?6Gig is too little for 1month use.

Isa ako sa naloko ng skymobi na to ang sabi lang sa akin ng tumawag mag top up lang ng 499 sa sky cable namin, without explaining na mag bayad ako pag mag excess ako ng gamit ang sabi lang free FB yon pala pag na consume mo na ang 800 MB after that ma charge ka na rin. Im so disappointed with skymobi imbes maka save ako sa prepaid load ko sa smartlte pocketwifi ko mas malaki pa ang bill ko and to think naka lock in ako ng 24 months, imbes mag tipid na pamahal pa ako.

Kakakuha ko lang niyan about two days ago nung nagamit na namin siya. Gaya ng dati…wala pa din kuwenta…sa loob ng bahay namin walang signal. Para ka lang din naka mobile data ng prepaid sim. HIndi ako halos makapagbukas ng website. Depende daw kasi sa location mo ang signal strength niya…E teka, alangan naman para lang gumanda ang signal niyan, ako dapat pala ang mag adjust…ako ang lilipat ng bahay para may signal siya. Ayos na ayos!

Ugok rin yung mga sumulat ng article na to. Nagpapagamit sa mga telco. Ni hindi niya sinabi kung ok ba itong skymobi na to o hindi, inadvertise lang niya rito.

Walang kwenta. Napakaliit ng data allowance. Basura talaga mga serbisyo ng internet sa Pinas. Walang pinagkaiba sa 2 telco.

Local service providers walang competition. Invite Telstra over here para bumaba ang rates and gumanda ang service. Sa America magsawa ako sa steaming no added fee.

5gb a month? Kulang pa sa isang araw ko iyan e!

TalinoMoKasi · 11 years ago

Eh kasi Globe parin po yan kaya the same

5GB is not bandwidth. It is the total amount of data.
Bandwidth is the amount of space used by a signal in the frequency domain which is measured in Hz, although sometimes people often referred bandwidth as data rate (measured by bits per second).
