We were far from the Capital, in Central Java, and even in remote areas we had faster data that anywhere in Metro Manila, not to mention Cebu, where I live. The Philippines has 2 providers, its a MONOPOLY. In Indonesia there are at least 5 companies, and the coverage is everywhere and it works. Before Indonesia had a MONOPOLY; and it was slow and the Philippines was fast. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5688870739795137027.post-68504454861799761592012-12-16T07:34:07.312+08:002012-12-16T07:34:07.312+08:00I also have data charges on top of my unli data pl...I also have data charges on top of my unli data plan & currently no smart technician gave me a call or them reversing my charges.. this is frustrsting indeed.. whats d point if they dont reverse it?

The data charges were reversed. ) and I have few questions for you.<br /><br />1. How can I use Microsoft Exchange Server without getting charge for it?<br />2. What should I tell SMART to reverse the charges for this?

I just got my Galaxy Note (Unli Data Plan 2000) yesterday and signed up for online billing. I already have around 30pesos on top of my bill, and I never even did any Push Mail or anything! I'm assuming this is a misinterpretation of "Push" Notices on the phone, like when someone comments on FB, I get a push notification on my phone. Any inputs? <br /><br />I'm just worried for getting billed for things that should really be free under the plan.

But my number 1 complaint is i get VERY horrible speeds, to the point that my Facebook app won't load anything at all, the app will just display "no internet connection, try again later". It's so weird because my first week was amazing i was getting 800kbps~4.3mbps! What's worst is my friend with a galaxy tab is using a smart bro sim is getting amazing speeds while I was getting 80kbps, we were both on the same room! Both set to CDMA mode only. Btw i'm using a Samsung Galaxy Note. Any advice on my situation?<br /><br />Thanks bro!Tim Chuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00366637379402359675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5688870739795137027.post-19324354170990876972011-05-29T01:28:06.963+08:002011-05-29T01:28:06.963+08:00If you have Plan 2500 and add Php299 for BB Social...If you have Plan 2500 and add Php299 for BB Social, I would just go with Plan 3000 Data.

It is unlocked so I can use it with my Smart postpaid number here. Now, Smart recently gave me a BB Curve 9300.
