not to forget, saving money for the future is a totally unheard of concept here.

 

I suspect that most people who can afford the internet service would likely be the type to put aside the money for the next bill collection if they could not handle a large payment. They probably will not be able to accept no internet connection. But I know what you mean and I suspect Fil products will not tolerate non payment for very long since they must pay for the bandwidth used.

But he said the online service at 7-11 wasn’t working. I was not aware that Palawan or other places accepted fil products but my PNB Branch did before ECQ. The big problem for me is paying the Dumaguete water bill. (We live in DGTE boundary and use Dumaguete water). They demanded payment when I texted them even though I cannot get there being >65. They suggested I send our helper. Really helpful if we had one! No other suggestions from them. Fortunately I was able to pay a young person who did work for us before, P1K to pay the bill for me before GCQ turned into ECQ. Can’t get a Q pass. I married a Filipina my age 35 years ago so no young bride to do these things for me lol and helper went home. We are in a small forgotten niche and basically screwed.

I haven’t received a bill either and I guess I will hold off trying to pay until I receive one. According to their cable tv channel, the last I could see is that their offices were closed and they only have a skeleton crew to service any outages. I am thinking they won’t cut off our fiber internet and cable until after the grace period expires for the new billing date. Our cable tv plus 10Mb internet is around P2500 per month.

A bit off topic. Sorry about that.
Does your 10Mb internet work reliably?
The TV channels, does it have EPG (electronic program guide) or can you setup favorite channels? I haven't had philproducts for a year. The favorites feature didn't work.
I have globe LTE and cignal satellite which are becoming annoying and expensive.

 

I pay 2899 for Fil products tv and 15 mb fiber internet, for the most part it is okay as tv works well but no Hi Def in my area and I am a tv and movie downloader and usually get 1.5 to 1.8 MB ps which is doable and Netflix works pretty good.... missing my PLDT 50 mbps though

 

Yes, our fiber 10m internet has been very reliable. As for their cable, we don’t use it that much and never tried to set up any favorites. We just go the US and Phils news channels for the mist part. I have no complaints. I do wonder why “fiber” has only 10M, or more to the point, why they bother using fiber when they can only support 10M (which is meant to support much higher speeds). I know why they cannot provide high speeds here.

they deploy fiber now because they can still use that in the future, when, after upgrading the rest of their network, they can offer their clients more bandwidth.
