PLDT: Faking It Bad!
Friday, March 14, 2008I tested our previous DSL connection with PLDT last September 22, 2007 using PLDT’s very own bandwidth tester (it’s at the PLDT website). Below is the result I got from them.
The actual bandwidth that we were getting from PLDT was even slower than their prescribed speed for a dial-up connection!
Tsk, tsk! Need I say it again?
PLDT sucks!!!

Below is the result of another PLDT bandwidth test using 2wire.com’s bandwidth tester, taken last year, July 16, 2007.
Any which way I look at it, PLDT’s cheated us on this. Tsk, tsk!

Your current bandwidth reading is 45.70kbps
