THIS IS A BOGUS. I applied December 4, 2007 and the modem was installed the following day. Until now — December 17, 2007 — my DSL is NOT YET ACTIVATED. And every time I call Customer Service, they’d advise me to call Tech Support and vice versa. Even the supervisors can’t do anything! I’ve talked to people like Sampaga and Soriano but even they cannot help me with anything. Now I just want my money back, since I’ve never been given such POOR service, but they wouldn’t allow it.

we applied last feb. 29 got the modem the same day and was told we’ll have our service in 3 days… 3 days my foot…
it took them 7 days just to convert our line from prepaid to post paid. and until now march 12 they still cant find a port to plug us in…
i sure hope they can have it fixed soon or we’ll find another isp.

Hi
I sympathize to both of you. These companies cannot deliver what they promised so the least that they can do is to refund the money. Are they that desperate to fool people into subscribing to their service?
Swapang, manloloko, sinungaling, these are the words that best describes these kinds of companies. If these are not true, I hope they will issue a note or any article that clearly explains what will happen, what is happening, and what happened to keep the public informed. If not, then they are simply accepting the fact they they are indeed fooling people and they don’t care as long as they lure people and once they have the money, they’ll keep you waiting and begging for a good service.
Pasensya na po. Can’t help myself.

But why? I just got it 1 day after my subscription. Wow, maybe it isn’t your lucky day, I was one on a 100 person lane willing to subscribe with the PLDT QIK. Just got it the day after. XD
But I didn’t say that it was superb, it’s just balanced speed.
If you want to have a superb speed, I think it will be on Late 2009/Early 2010.
I’m sorry about it. But it’s true, we need another foreign company for these wanted speed.
Sometimes, being independent isn’t good. That’s the way it is.

My boyfriend from the Philippines asked me to apply him for a dsl so he wont have to go to their office to chat with me. I was planning to get this package but i found out from the other users that this isn’t really a good one. I guess I just have to enroll him to the 990php promo.
@mokies
yup, here in us dsl connection is way way faster than those in Phil..me any my family are sharing the same internet connection thanks to wifi. and i still have 48.0mbs speed regardless that we have 5 computers using here at the same time. :)
May 23rd, 2008 at 12:27 pm
just wanna ask, is qik available in all places in the philippineS?
May 31st, 2008 at 1:33 pm
I tried calling 171 to apply several times, but they keep on telling me that it’s still not available in our area (pasig)..maybe ill juat have to find another isp.
June 9th, 2008 at 6:52 pm
Dear Joy!
If you live in the Pasig Area, I suggest you get Globelines Broadband. Pasig is the home of Globe which is way faster than PLDT MyDSL and Smart BRO.

I used to be a PLDT myDSL subscriber. I was very happy with their services although the first 1 1/2 months were terrible but I was advised that internet connection takes a while before you get an established connection. The advised was right.
I am now a globe broadband subscriber because I moved to other place and a friend advised to try globe. the service is terrible. I get no service from time to time and sometimes it takes more than 2 weeks of no connection. What they always promise is that they are going to adjust the bill. Well they did not really adjust the bill. what they did was that they made me look like a liar when I asked where was the adjustment they promised and they said it was not indicated on their record that I am qualified for adjustment. Globe is only after your money. They care less about whether you are satified or not.

this pldt dsl sucks! since my modem change them by what they call ZYXEL, i can only access my internet by 6am til 5pm only! i always call the customer service and they always said that they will do some actions bout this.but until now..no result.. hope this pldt fix this problem of every subscriber that having problem with their dsl.
July 21st, 2008 at 9:42 pm
@jack
i experienced same thing here in iloilo, starting this month of july. connection is good from around 6 am to around 6 pm also. after that connection will drop every 5 mins and when you get connected, it will be very slow. i just emailed them last week like twice and called them last saturday to complain. right now, as of this writing, connection is good. it aint dropping (yet). so i hope this would continue because that kind of connection is really annoying.

i was about to switch from smartbro to this pldt dsl qik…after reading your posts, i changed my mind. smartbro is ok for me the only thing is that sometimes i lose my connection just because it’s windy or may bagyo…it sucks when it happens. but generally, smartbro is ok. ill stick to it…for now.
August 19th, 2008 at 7:44 pm
Well, I prefer the Wired Installation rather than having a 384k/512k modem (Wi-fi) and a landline. But it’s only limited on some areas.
September 23rd, 2008 at 10:34 pm
my fiance and her family libe n Baliwag, Bulacan.. Was thinking about getting the DSL but after hearing of all these poblems i think i will check another isp. Anyone know which service works bet out there?
September 28th, 2008 at 12:25 pm

i was planning to switch to pldt sana since my smartbro is way nkakaloka na!! recently, i can’t connect during the evening, which is the only time i am at home.. whenever i call their techsupport they have nothing else to say but that they’ll make sure that my prob would be solved.. but when?! after reading all ur comments, whew, i might have hold that switching thought first.. thanks to u guys… i might stick with smartbro for a while until they release the best provider… i’m willing to pay anyway, well who isn’t? as long as they give us the best service… i’m currenty using vOip to connect with relatives abroad, can u recommend anything better than pldt or smartbro? thanks Ü

I never had much stress and hassle time since we subscribed to PLDT myDSL. The trend is, If you don’t have any phone line yet it will cause you to wait much 100x time until the internet service will be activated, for us we actually waited for 3 weeks before the phone line was installed and at this very moment we remain not getting any internet access yet. (pain pain pain 100x) I already emailed the said company but it seems that I am only getting a mediocre response. We also received some calls from their team but then they will just leave you an impression of….. do these people really know what they are doing?..
I personally do not deserve such service or should I say treatment. I work in a call center for internet access abroad and our clients are really demanding about the service I myself also deserve to demand in getting the service I deserve…
This is not worth it after all…
March 11th, 2009 at 12:06 pm
nagsubscribe kmi last wik..
then sbi before 10 days iiinstall n dw nila..
tpos ngaun png 10 days n wla parin??
hay, mga sinungaling…
March 24th, 2009 at 9:33 am
We were about to avail the QIK of pldt.. all this comments are very discouraging.. I hope naman may mga taong magmahal sa gngawa nila and not just lure people into for immediate income, they should render their services well because that’s how they should return the favor when we put our trust in them, and eventually loyalty..
April 22nd, 2009 at 10:15 pm
What a name guys, Quik install? It doesn’t mean that you can use your connection right away ‘coz you have to call their CSR from time to time to follow up on your damn connection. I’m pissed off now, liar!
May 8th, 2009 at 7:40 pm
i kinda love my myglobe wireless broadband…but there are certain times i having difficulties for the connection, since i was the only one who had an internet in house my sister is begging me to switch to myDSL..i don’t know but i thinking second thought about leaving globe…since most of us have problems…how can we have a better connections…
June 21st, 2009 at 1:43 pm
Pede bang ireklamo to sa mga senador ? Nag babayad ka para sa DSL hindi dial up. Ang bagal ng F###### internet ko ngayon. Kahit mabigyan ka ng internet… mabagal din.

@Marice Manatac:
ma’am i think if you need to switch to mydsl you better do some research in your area first if it runs smoothly and fast kasi depende rin sa location meron maganda ang mydsl sa isang area pero sa ibang area maganda naman ang globe or ibang isp.
@others:
if follow ups can’t get through quickly within committed time by the isp, try to visit the isp’s office and complaints should be put into writing yourself so that you’re sure that it’s documented, well at least it worked for me.
June 27th, 2009 at 12:36 am
Isn’t it that irerelaunch ang product ng QIK? feeling ko trial run lang last year and hopefully, HOPEFULLY, nagawan na ng paraan ng pldt na kung ano man ang problema na nangyari with QIK last year (or pldt’s DSL in general)
June 27th, 2009 at 1:22 am
just wanna ask, nagrelaunch daw ang QIK DSL? so how was it? better?
my sister wants to avail din kasi since PLDT landline kami.
June 28th, 2009 at 12:34 am
this QIK thingy seems promising.. i think its been relaunched. hope it works better kase
im not enjoying my broadband na ehh.. then i saw meron silang plan hanggang 3Mbps?? oks ba yun? is it worth switching my super slow broadband connection to this???
June 28th, 2009 at 2:19 pm
i think nagrelaunch na ang pldt qik. they have a TV commercial somewhere i saw just very recently.
June 28th, 2009 at 5:13 pm
im using QIK. di naman at least mejo okay connection xamen..
June 28th, 2009 at 7:54 pm
juana, how fast is qik? at par na ba siya with other broadband services like Sky? 3mbps daw ang bilis eh.
June 29th, 2009 at 10:48 am
may money back quarantee ba ‘to? kasi as i have seen sa comments minsan okay & minsan nde.. so how’s that? baka naman pag nde okay dapat lang ireport sa company dba?
June 29th, 2009 at 10:59 am
SAME IRR, IM WILLING TO PAY NAMAN, JUST NEED BETTER CONNECTIONS. BIG DEAL YUNG KUNG GANO KADALI MAGKA BROADBAND BUT HOW ‘BOUT TAKING RISKS SA SERVICES?? THOUGH I WANNA TRY THAT KIT NA MADALI LANG DAW IAPPLY..
July 1st, 2009 at 9:17 pm
madali lang ang installation
five steps lang accdg to this website http://myworldmydsl.com/qik/home.aspx
may link naman that will direct you to the procedure
besides, pwede naman icheck kung pwede for application ang area niyo eh
July 2nd, 2009 at 8:41 pm
yung TVC ni ryan a. QIk noh? more to that, this website i think might help in checking kung yung may pldt landline e swak yung location nila for the kit. eto mga tsong.http://myworldmydsl.com/qik/home.aspx
July 3rd, 2009 at 10:24 pm
hi, im just trying to apply for the QIK but when I call the customer service, she told me that I ahve to pay 1700, 500 for the installation then 1200 for the modem but I was confused , why do I need to pay another 500 for the installation when I have already a pldt landline, I am currently using pldt vibe so I have decided to switch to dsl for the convenient usage
July 3rd, 2009 at 11:32 pm
i think the installation fee is for the internet connection (connection to their available port or something like that) if you wan to confirm this you might wanna try calling them again and check if the info given to you is consistent with other agents or visit the nearest pldt office.
July 4th, 2009 at 12:37 am
@pressy leen– NO. i think there’s something wrong w/ that. call 101-885
July 4th, 2009 at 3:59 pm
