i got my sun sim last week, tapos after my first text, was informed that i now have P100 load (per my understanding, P100/mo for the next 3 months). check.
tapos, last friday, i checked my load and it was at P84. i proceeded to load a 24/7 prepaid card worth P100. i was told by a friendly sun cellular employee in shangri-la, that 24/7 would be activated after 24 hours from loading. up to last night, which is 72 hours from the time i loaded, P84 pa din ang balance ko. di pa din reflected ang P100 24/7 load. ba't ganun? my friend, who i "persuaded" to get a sun sim para may ka-text ako, ganun din ang nangyari sa kanya.
any ideas? ang hirap naman ng 24/7 na 'to.
on a positive note, may signal ang sun in san fernando, pampanga, silang, cavite, tagaytay. also in my usual hang outs in makati, mandaluyong and QC.
yung 24/7 is unlimited for sun-to-sun local calls and is not applicable to NDD calls.
question: kung sun-to-sun pero one party is in bohol (for example) and the other in metro manila, does that count as a local call? or NDD na ba yun, kasi long distance? in short, kung metro manila to any point in the provinces, sun-to-sun, libre pa din ba?
April_ryan. The P100 for the 24/7 card you loaded will not be reflected in your prepaid balance. What happened was it gave you free sun-sun text and calls for 10 days. Yung P84 balance mo mababawasan lang when you call/sms other networks. Go ahead. Try calling/texting a sun number... you'll see that your 84 load wont be touched (well, barring any technical hiccups j/k )
By local network, we mean that anywhere you are INSIDE sun's network libre yung call. so if you are here in Manila and your called party is in Mindanao (Sun subscriber din), effectively unlimited yung call. Pag tumawag sa sa landline sa mindanao (NDD), mababawasan ang load mo since ibang network na yun.
kala ko good for 10 days lang yun. e di lalabas na mas mura ang P100 x 2 per month(15 days x 2) kesa P250 per month (good for 30 days). tama ba pagkakaintindi ko?
The most intriguing stock is Digitel. Apparently, the 24/7 promo is doing very well and high school students have all been switching to Sun Cellular so that they can talk or text night and day. Some university students have followed suit, but the older members are staying with Smart or Globe. The one mobile company that might be affected is Pilipino Telephone Co. as this is also at the low end of the market.
yung dual band naman, para mas may maraming choice lang ang cellphone mo ng frequency na mapupuntahan kung saka-sakaling clogged na sa isang frequency band
depende nga yan kung anong frequency band nagooperate ang sun cellular. kung 1800mhz only, hindi nga pwede ang N5110. kung 900mhz or dual band ang sun cellular (900/1800mhz), pwede ang N5110.
Sun works on the 1800mhz only., kaya kailangan mo talaga dual band.
I just found out na hindi rin pwede yung mga US dual bands dahil 900/1900mhz sila, had to ditch my US Samsung Dual Band
If you want to retain your old SIM while migrating to SUN, bili na lang kayo ng dual SIM adapter para gamit niyo pareho...no need for an extra phone. 150-250 in Quiapo or GH depende sa model ng phone.
Question lang po sa mga taga Sun:
Sa Prepaid Simpack na nabili ko nakalagay na standard feature ang "teleconferencing" or conference call...sabi naman ng CS ninyo pang postpaid lang yun.
Paki linaw lang po.
Overall satisfied ako sa service ng Sun; I can make and receive calls from as far as Davao and Pangasinan.
ang alam ko lang na may service for teleconferencing is for post-paid subscribers only. yun kasi lagi ginagawa ng kapatid ko. sya yung tumatawag sa mga kaibigan nya para magconference sila
