PLDT Fiber to Home starts at Php3.5k for 8Mbps

During the Smart LTE launch yesterday, I talked to one PLDT/Smart exec and he told me that the LTE sites must be supported by fiber on the ground in order for it to work. He then offered to set me up on a test 100Mbps Fiber-to-Home connection.

So I checked up on the Fibr residential plans of PLDT and found this.

The Fiber to Home plans and pricing are as follows:

100Mbps at Php20,000/month
15Mbps at Php5,500/month
8Mbps at Php3,500/month

Here are the areas where it is available at the moment:

ACROPOLIS (LIBIS)
ALABANG 400
ALABANG HILLS
AYALA HEIGHTS
ARCADIA VILLAGE
AYALA ALABANG VILLAGE (FDC2)
CAPITOL 8 SUBDIVISION
CORINTHIANS GARDEN
DASMARINAS VILLAGE
DON ANTONIO HEIGHTS
EAST GREENHILLS
FORBES PARK
GREENMEADOWS SUBDIVISION
KASIYAHAN HOMES
LA VISTA
LEXINGTON GARDEN VILLAGE
LOYOLA GRAND VILLAS
MAGALANES VILLAGE
MAHOGANY PLACE III
MCKINLEY HILLS
MONTGOMERY PLACE
NORTHEAST GREENHILLS
NORTH GREENHILLS (Mandaluyong)
PACIFIC MALAYAN VILLAGE
PHOENIX SUBDIVISION
SAN LORENZO VILLAGE
SOUTHBAY
ST. IGNATIUS SUBDIVISION
TIERRA PURA (Quezon City)
URDANETA
VALLE VERDE1
VALLE VERDE2
VALLE VERDE3
VALLE VERDE4
VALLE VERDE5
VALLE VERDE6
WACK-WACK
WEST GREENHILLS
AYALA SOUTHVALE PHASE 1 & 2
GREENVIEW EXECUTIVE HOMES 1 & 2
PALMS POINTE
VARSITY HILLS

Now that’s something to consider. I think Fibr is much better that regular wired DSL (PLDT has a 10Mbps at Php4k/month) since you usually get the subscribed speed instead of the usual 60-80% capacity.

Same goes for South Korea. Still, a stupid comparison. Sige nga, pakabit ka ngayon ng Google Fiber.

Fiber connections are actually way better than what we’re using now, which is wireless. You constantly get your subscribed speed and sometimes, it gets higher.
