Philioppine Smart network better than Globe–NTC
SMART Communications Inc.’s network is officially better than that of rival Globe Telecom Inc., data from the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) showed.
Translated into layman’s terms, what this result means
is that Smart’s signal level is up to five times stronger than Globe’s. In terms
of customer experience, a stronger signal level means better indoor coverage,
resulting in better voice quality, less drop calls, faster and more reliable SMS
and higher data speeds.
Of all the 5 tests that NTC has conducted, only 1 test
shows that Globe has an edge over Smart and that is the Grade of Service.

Vonage plan combines unlimited calling to all of Globe’s more than 31 million
mobile and wireline subscribers which includes their cell phones and landlines

If PLDT, SMART, SUN, and Talk & Text were all combined in the same package linkup as sister companies, it would be a great incentive for subscribers of PLDT like Globe has already.

PLDT readies ‘broadband over power lines’
Philippine Daily Inquirer 12/03/2009 MANILA, Philippines -- Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co. (PLDT) said it will be ready to launch, in six to 12 months, its landmark “broadband over power lines (BPL)” service, seen as a new technology that will fast-forward the growth of Internet use in the country.
The BPL technology is a by-product of the PLDT group’s acquisition of a controlling stake in Manila Electric Co. (Meralco), the country’s largest power distributors.
The new technology, as its name suggests, will allow PLDT to efficiently bring broadband services to virtually all of Meralco’s 24 million customers concentrated in Metro Manila and nearby areas at a minimal cost.
The technology will allow the company to deliver Internet services to households using Meralco’s network of power lines in Metro Manila. Continue reading here http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/breakingnews/infotech/view/20091203-239926/PLDT-readies-broadband-over-power-lines

PLDT continues to push IDD budget card use
Wednesday, 25 November 2009 Business Mirror DESPITE the increased usage of instant messaging and soft phones, telecom giant Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co. (PLDT) believes there is still room for business as far as budget cards are concerned.
With a call rate of P1.50 per minute to the US and Canada, Balingit said more consumers will appreciate the value offerings of the budget card. She also pointed out that PLDT’s telecommunications infrastructure gives the company leverage as consumers will prefer using budget cards because they are assured of fast and clear connection when they call family and friends overseas. “This is backed up by our market research data wherein 85 percent of PLDT budget card users are very satisfied with the service,” she said.
My comment Note that Sun offers a P2 minute call rate overseas with your regular cell load not a special card load like PLDT and SMART also offers a P2.5 rate per minute to many more countries which benefit OFW workers families greatly also with their regular load which is much less hassle,
