Another rotten ISP company!

By Sasha on Jun 20, 2009 in Internet-Web Devt

I had my Global Destiny cable internet connection cut. Permanently! The service is BAD! If you are thinking of getting their services, please don’t. Ask someone from your neighborhood if they are subscribed to the same service and ask them if they are satisfied with it. If yes, then try getting their services. But don’t say I didn’t warn you. They can’t give you a decent internet speed, even in the wee hours of the morning when there are only a few of you using their service.

I’ve emailed them, called them up, to complain about the speed. But it’s still the same. I tried them for a couple of months. And I tell you, I haven’t gotten a break from them! Always the same below 200kbps speed. Imagine that! I should have just gotten a dial-up connection! Cheaper and there are times when the connection becomes faster. Also, you should know that they don’t have a 24/7 customer service representative on standby. Oh, they will tell you they have. But believe me, your fingers will get numb from dialing their numbers again and again and it will only ring and ring and ring.

I don’t know why you can’t get a decent service from these internet service providers. Or is it just my rotten luck that I get to subscribe to these rotten DSL companies? Probably both!

Hala, ako pa naman nagrecommend sa yo nito. Siguro by areas, kasi bakit dito ang bilis, hinsi talaga kami nagkakaproblema.

Ay tita, don’t worry about it. Labas po kayo sa reklamo ko hehehe…

I made the decision myself naman based not only on your recommendation. I also asked my cousin about it. Ang pagkakamali ko lang talaga kasi I didn’t ask for the speed. Naiirita rin kasi ako sa Destiny dahil walang aksyon sa reklamo ko and walang pinagbago talaga.

hi nice blog! I’m using 2 ISPs (both 1Mbps for backup purposes). I don’t like the other one (Globe) because of its frequent disconnections so we don’t use it very often. what a waste…
