BAYAN Wireless Landline

[boybi]

Yup same lang sya sa MANGO ng Digitel. Pero parang hindi yata aggressive ang Digitel sa pag-market nito.

Q: If nagkalat na ang mga cellsites ng mga ganitong wireless landline katulad ng sa mga cellphones, ano ng mangyayari sa cellphones?

[lipot]

Yan yung Bayantel Span. Meron din naman sila unit na parang celphone lang. Me Nokia pa nga e.

Bago ka magsubscribe, pademo mo muna. Sa akin kasi me ahenteng nag-alok na, sabi dito sa area namin ok daw signal. Nung tinesting, ok sana yung phone pero di makaconnect sa internet.

[musang]

Unlimited yan pag tumawag sa ibang landlines pero magagamit lang sya sa areas na merong bayantel cell sites. yung internet nya mas mabilis lang ng konti sa dial-up (up to 128 kbps daw).

I believe this is what they call SPAN.

I looked into it before but coverage was VERY limited to certain far flung areas.

No new service areas as of yet.

The one from Globe, Speak 'n' Surf has better coverage and comes with a DSL line to boot.

I have a friend who uses it and swears by it.

He brings around the big unit and gets a laugh from people who stare.

You can also send SMS with it since it has an LCD screen.

I think I'll go with Speak 'n' Surf when the time comes

i called my friend earlier who works with bayantel on this.
she will be lending me a unit for a week so i can test it at our house so i will give everyone feedback here on how it went.

per my friend, the monthly subscription cost is 640 pesos+VAT. the cost of th e handset varies. the desktop unit costs 1495-1999, and the mobile unit costs from 3495 to 8600. siguro depending on the features.

you have to buy the handset upon subscription so sa iyo na yun.

i have to disconnect din kasi our PLDT landline sa house dahil once a week, four days lang sya nagkakaroon ng dial tone, tapos nagbabayad ako ng 800++ excluding VAT per month.

i have a demo unit for almost 3 months na, pinahiram sakin ng friend ko from bayantel, as in FREE ko gamitin... ang problema.. mahina signal dito sa taguig ehehe, or maybe because im using their old demo unit.

[fireblade]

get globe because may internet while bayantel wala.

Yes, if you have an enemy go ahead and ask him to get Globe wireless.

Had one before and twas a loser!!!! Very bad reception and only thing good was they refunded all my money for the 9 months that i subscribed.

Naku Bro, totoo yan. Balik sa dating sakit ang PLDT! Sumasama na naman ang serbisyo nila. Yung sa amin sa Pasay, umulan lang, wala nang dial tone. Nakakainis! Pag ni-report mo naman, ang tagal bago dumating yung mga technicians nila.

Meron ba sa Cavite area yang wireless landline?

[snowbound]

ito gamit namin ngayon, mas ok gamitin kasi dala mo kahit saan ka pupunta. madali ka makontak at makatawag sa mas mababang halaga. 1 thing more, davao location namin pero pwedeng makatawag sa cebu at maynila na local call charge, hindi ndd charge rate. downside is, may location na mahina ang signal.
