Mobile Internet Free on Mondays with Smart Always On
by Smart Communications, Inc. on Saturday, January 28, 2012 at 4:22am ·Do you want to update your Facebook status 1,500 times in a day? Can you possibly tweet 150,000 times within 24 hours? How about reading 1,500 emails in a day?
The numbers may seem huge, but to do all that, all one needs is about 25MB of data. With wireless leader Smart Communications, Inc. (Smart), mobile Internet users can have this 25MB worth of mobile Internet absolutely free.
Smart is driving the so-called Monday blues away. For the next three Mondays – January 30, and February 6 and 13, 2012 — all prepaid and postpaid Smart subscribers simply need to text FREE 25MB to 2200 to have 25MB of mobile Internet, for free.
“Mobile Internet users don’t realize how little volume of data they actually need to engage all day in the activities they enjoy the most – such as updating their social networks. Through this offer, we hope to encourage Smart subscribers to find out for themselves just how much they can do with 25MB of data,” said Giovanni Bacareza, head of Broadband Internet and Data Services at Smart.
Meanwhile, Smart subscribers that prefer to surf the Web their way on other days can always enjoy the telco’s ‘Always On’ Internet packages.
These packages – from as low as P20 per day for 25MB of data, to as much as 2GB of data at P995 for 30 days — allow mobile Internet surfers to pay only for the data they wish to consume.
While the casual mobile Internet user who would use his or her smartphone only for sending email and social networking can avail of the 25MB Always On plan for only P20 a day, the more active users who are into video streaming and data tethering can avail of a 2GB Always On package for P995, valid for one month.
Always On is available to all Smart prepaid and postpaid subscribers. To view the complete Always On menu, go to m.smart.com.ph/volumeplans. To activate a package, simply send ON (amount) to 2200.
“With Always On, we’re making it easier for Filipinos to enjoy mobile Internet connectivity at a price that fits their budget. Always On eliminates worries of being charged beyond what they are willing to spend,” added Bacareza.
Always On reduces the risk of unexpected data charges as it notifies users via SMS once they have consumed 80% of their package. Upon expiration, charging will revert to the regular bucket pricing of P10 for every 30 minutes of use.
Last Monday is approaching guys, so what are you waiting for avail of the free 25mb now.
