The country’s leader in fixed broadband, PLDT HOME, together with mobile forerunner Smart Communications, bring to PLDT HOME DSL subscribers a first-in-the-country data plan that enables users to share data allocation with the mobile devices of their family members.
Through PLDT HOME DSL’s new Speedster Fam Plan 1299, users can enjoy an Internet speed of up to 10 megabits per second (mbps) and a monthly data allocation of 50 gigabytes (GB). Moreover, subscribers who upgrade their Speedster Plan with Smart’s Plan 399 or Plan 600 can share 6 GB of this 50 GB monthly data allocation to their family members’ mobile devices for the the full mobile experience anytime and anywhere. Customers may get up to four Smart mobile phone lines bundled with their Speedster Fam Plan all conveniently billed under one subscription.
PLDT and Smart EVP and Consumer Business Group Head Ariel Fermin stated that this new service takes off from the Filipino value of sharing. “Sharing is at the core of every Filipino family. We share everything, from food to stories and memories and, now, data connectivity,” he said. “Now, more than ever, the strongest connections truly begin at home. With this unrivaled and powerful convergence of the country’s number one broadband provider, PLDT HOME and the undisputed leader in mobile services, Smart, we are going beyond the home and enriching the mobile experience of our subscribers. It’s certainly not just about the shared gigabytes, but we humanize technology by empowering our customers to live their digitally driven lives to the fullest and strengthen the connections they have with their loved ones despite physical distance through the power of digital and mobile technology,” Fermin added.
PLDT HOME and Smart’s launch of the new Speedster Fam Plan 1299 follows the groundbreaking partnerships dedicated towards enriching the lives of over 70 million subscribers. Last year, the two industry leaders teamed up with iFlix and Fox International Channels to give their users world class entertainment content as well as with industry disruptors like Uber, Zalora, FoodPanda, and AirBnB to further complement the lifestyle needs of their subscribers. In addition to these, PLDT HOME also launched the country’s first 1gbps plan and partnered with technology pioneers Intel and Microsoft to come up with the TVolution Stick, a device that enables users to turn their HDMI-ready televisions into full-feature Windows PCs.
