I used to be one of the first connected through SMARTBro, only because our area wasn't myDSL ready yet. Lousy service all around for a year and half.
A neighbor of mine who (I didn't know at the time) is a PLDT employee told me to switch to myDSL because our area was activated already. He helped with the application and installation himself, and I was up and running in no time.
I got the Plan 999 then, which was a guaranteed 512kbps with a burst of 768kbps. Now I believe our area has been upgraded to that 1280kbps speed. Oh, yeah, I live in the Novaliches, Quezon City area.
So, bottom line. Very satisfied (so far).
