i didnt mean all of them have bandwidth cap, i`m saying most of them adds additional bills per gb usage. i.e. you get plan 1,000php with free 10gb-25gb buffer and they'll add like 5-10php per gb after you used up that buffer. some of them have lower rates like pldt, though they're notorious about throttling or eastern telecom for their reasonable throttling for higher rates. bayantel's wireless... BS, i'd eat their buffer in two weeks and get "disconnected" for the rest of the month...

start asking how they'd deal on people that passes the cap, i.e. bayantel disconnects you, pldt throttles heavily and charges you by per/gb basis additionally, eastern telecom slightly throttles and charges you by per/gb basis additionally.

So by saying "i.e." those above mention are just examples? Or are they facts?

I contacted Sky and they told me they don't caps any of their plans except for the http://www.lifeat5mbps.com/

@Lupin
hows your sky 6mbps? Is it really that bad as the guys say in the facebook link I posted?

i.e. means "in other words," not "for example."

I'm not on sky. I'm on PLDT. My paying for a 2mbps connection but I'm getting ~3.5 mbps. Customer service wise, they're pretty good and quick but others might disagree with that. Then again, we've been their customer for almost 20 years.

Upload sucks btw. That's why I no longer offer anything here.

PLDT's speed and service depends on location, if you're on a location saturated with PLDT users then you`ll be on a bummer. actually every ISP is like that, except business lines.

PLDT's ntt pipes are overloaded 24/7, not really a good choice. That said, have a proxy server ready for when they decide to nullroute bbt again :3
