Not really. I have a Smart Bro connection here in our boarding house now, and contrary to popular belief, it’s fast! Maybe because there is not enough Smart Bro subscriber in our area yet to slow down our connection.
So, if you are living in Bangkal, Makati, don’t ever think of getting a Smart Bro subscription. It will make my Smart Bro connection slow because we will share the bandwidth, right? Stay away from Smart Bro! *evil grin* It sucks! It sucks all the downloadables so fast!
Again, don’t ever think of sharing my bandwidth with you. Get a Globe Visibility or Globe Broadband instead! Hahaha!

Smart BRO sucks! 300+ speed compared w/ PLDTmyDSL 700+ speed w/c has the same price of Php999.
I tried to cancel the service but i will pay the remaining months to do it. Hay!!
September 9th, 2007 at 10:28 pm
Warning for those who want to get smart bro, its a rip-off!!! Imagine getting a download speed of 400 bytes per second yes bytes!!! not even 1 kilobyte, that is if there is connectivity. So i complained to smart and they sent a tech to fix the problem and the result 3kbs average download speed. Imagine trying to download a file size of 25mb and it will take hours!!! so for those of you that want to get Smart Bro it a lot of brouhaha, total rip off, and they have the gall to advertise and promote their product all over the province!!! Ang kapal ng mga mukha!!!

Please email my friend for any concerns (unitedagainstsmart@yahoo.com) against Smart Bro. He is fighting Smart at the NTC. He has already filed a case against Smart for fraud and bad business practices. Let’s help him help us.

Yes, those who want to subscribe to Smart Bro… I am telling you: Do yourself a favor and try something else. It’s my worst decision this year. I have lost a great deal of money because of it.
Last week, I tried to understand the poor connection due to the typhoon. But the weather this week is fine. I think they dont have any excuses now.
Unfortunately, they have this contract and I have to pay the remaining months as a victim of their POOR SERVICE. They are SO unfair. It’s a rip-off. Believe me. After this I will write to unitedagainstsmart@yahoo.com (Thanks, Happy Feet!)
Sana makarma ang kompanyang ito!

Patapos na contract mo yung problema hindi pa tapos.

December 28th, 2007 at 11:08 pm
Smart Bro sucks, totally! I live in Bangkal and we started our connection about 2 years ago. After 2 months, that’s when we started having problems which we are still experiencing right now. We have called their Technical Support countless times and their staff have visited us at least 5 times already. They give CRAPPY service. Nowadays, our connection only lasts about 5-15 mins. then we get disconnected over and over again. The only reason why we FORCE ourselves with this crappy service is that my dad is very stingy. Can anyone please recommend a better connection (with reasonable rates) than what Smart Bro is providing? This connection always tries my patience and it’s near to pulling out my last string. HELP me out of my misery, give me a better connection.
December 28th, 2007 at 11:18 pm
sa akin, wala namang problema. ok naman ang connection. walang putol, magdamag maghapon. sa bangkal din ako. swertehan din ata dito.
December 29th, 2007 at 12:16 pm
Smart Bro’s Service is beyond description…
We’ve a business account…. AND STILL SUCKS
MEGA SUCKS…
They managed to reconfigure the buildings router and all tenants were offline.
The Tech Support wasted half my day running completely useles tests trying to proof that our LAN is the source of the problem. They can’t handle anything else than Windows and the right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing…
HANDS OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SIGN UP FOR ANYTHING BUT SMART BRO…

dito sa amin,,,we(subscribers) belong to a remote AP,,ibig sabihin,malayo kami sa base station(ap cluster),,so they put up a sm(which recieves the bandwith from the base station,about 10 kms away),,then feed it to an AP(accesspoint),,then in turn transmit it to the subscribers(about 40+ subscribers),,,,the problem is that the sm(canopy lite) on the tower is the same as the sm(canopy lite) of its subscribers which has a max throughput of only 1 mbps..500 downlink and 500 uplink…..ibig sabihin 500 kbps na downlink ang pinaghahatian namin mga subscribers…500/40=12.5 kbps…wow!!!!WE BEEN HAD!!!!

February 9th, 2008 at 4:09 pm
I can’t agree with you more. Smart BRO sucks a LOT. During our first weeks with smart bro, I have a fast connection and I was happy since I can download 99 kb/s and upload at 35 kb/s. It wasn’t long when our connection started slowing down. I’m a smart bro subscriber a more than 1 year now. From that fast connection, it dropped to 3 kb/s (YES, 3!!!) download and 315 BYTES!!!/s upload. Now I can barely download a software and upload manga. *curses smart bro*
The worst decision you’ll ever have is to subscribe to their company, CRAPPY service is the only thing they offer.
February 9th, 2008 at 4:12 pm
Oh yeah… you know that little icon thing in the lower right corner of your screen? Yes, the one with 2 monitors and when you drag on it says Local Area Connection (LAN). That thing says I have a 100.0 Mbs right after we subscribed to smartbro. But NOW, I got 10.0 Mbs. What a rip-off!
February 18th, 2008 at 8:38 pm
Marami mang masasamang balita tungkol sa Smart Bro eh nananatili parin kaming subscriber nito. Smart Bro lang talaga ang nagbibigay ng internet connection dito sa area namin, walang PLDT myDSL, walang Globe Broadband, hindi lang ako sure kung may BayanDSL na…
Kumuha narin kami nung Plan 799, sana lang eh ok rin yun tulad nung Plan 999 namin…

hi, I just subscribed the smart bro 999 and its so slow as in my speed is only 69kbps, i called the tech support they went here wasted my time watching them and the result still the same, I called smart about this for cancellation but they said i have to pay the pre termination fee and the that is the remaining months, please help me…
February 28th, 2008 at 11:31 pm
@rhoda… 69kbps? 69 kilobits or 69 kilobytes?

For those asking about GLOBE DSL… my monthly bill is P990 with landline (yes DSL + Landline).. and my suppose download speed is 385kbps but, my daily average speed is always above 512kbps and my download is about 55kbps/sec and higher.. it doesnt go lower than this…(Globe said all P990 plans are now automatically upgraded to 512kbps higner at offpeak) i got friends from around the area marami kaming naka Globe.. pero lahat kami maganda ang service.. (San Juan) and if ever magloko or mawalan ng connection… its true 24hrs or less nung nawala connection ko i called at about 12:30noon time at about 2pm kumakatok ng sa gate ko yung onsite tech rep. nita.. hooooooray for Globe… so bago kayo mag decide magpalagay ng SmartBro like some of my friends… BE SMART… THINK 100 TIMES…. goodluck..

may nakakatakot akong kuwento… basahin nyu po ito..
*CAUTION* baka matakot kayo matulog sa gabi pagkatapos mabasa ito…
isang madilim na gabi.. sa isang lumang boarding house..
habang nakahiga sa kama si tonia(real name disclosed).. matutulog na sana siya dahil
masarap ang lamig sa gabing iyon sapagkat umuulan ng konti.. ipipikit na sana niya yung mga
mata niya nang… may narinig siyang sigaw sa kabilang kuwarto.. ilang araw na nang umalis
ang dating nakaboard sa kuwartong iyon.. kinabahan siya at hindi makagalaw.. nais niya
sanang sumigaw upang humingi ng saklolo ngunit baka marinig lang siya ng kung ano sa
kabilang kuwarto.. ilang minuto din siyang nakahiga at umiisip anong dapat gawin.. patuloy pa
rin ang ga sigaw.. sa isipan ni tonia parang merong pino-posses sa kuwartong iyon..
naglakas-loob siyang bumangon at dahan2x na lumakad papunta sa kuwartong
pinanggagalingan ng mga sigaw.. sumilip siya at…. napasigaw…
…..
may babae…
’sino ka???’ tanong ni tonia
‘ah… sorry sa mga sigaw bagong lipat lang ako dito kanina at nagreresearch ng term paper ko…’ sagot ng babae…
napahinga ng maluwag si tonia…
pero biglang naisipan tanungin ang babae..
‘ano gamit mo pangresearch?’ tanong ni tonia na tila takot na takot sa sasagutin ng babae
…..
…”SMART BRO”….

>>>Weekly/Monthly Struggle with Smart BRO<<<
I usually download something from the net, so I often leave it behind till it finishes… since it’s really, really slow. But then, everytime I check the downloading process… I discovered it was broken because of the fluctuating connection, and so… I have to download again. ~_~
So here I am calling the so-called “support” thingy from smart bro.
Me: Uhm… hello?
Smart Bro rep.: Hello! Welcome to smart bro support service. May I know you name?
Me: I’m pauline… and I’ve called a lot of times before already and…
Smart Bro: May I know your service reference number, ma’am?
Me: It’s #########. Uhm… I have a problem… My net connection is disconnecting too often now… and just last week… I had no connection for almost 4 days which i’ve always been complaining before.
SmartBro: Yes.. ma’am. Please wait a moment.
***few minutes later***
SmartBro: Well, ma’am… I checked your connection area and it seems that its undergoing maintenance.
Me: Oooooh…. well, when will it soon end?
SmartBro: We still dont have any idea yet, so please wait for further notice.
*call ends*
I was so tempted to shout at the phone, “WTF??! YOU ALWAYS KEPT TELLING ME ITS UNDERGOING MAINTENANCE… BUT THAT MAINTENANCE NEVER ENDED!!”
I mean, seriously… i’ve been experiencing fluctuating connection for months now because of maintenance?? Is there a maintenance that runs for months and never really had any improvement in service?? TO HELL WITH YOU SMARTBRO!!
March 29th, 2008 at 1:12 pm
ta3…. buti sa inyo 1 week mabilis pa…
eh yung amin, kakakabit lng bagal agad…
inaasahan ko na 100kbps ang speed pero 16kbps lng…
download na lng 2loy me picture T_T…
khit na tweak na din, bgal pa…. T_T
April 1st, 2008 at 2:18 am
taeng-tae talaga ang smartBRO… isipin mo.. yung sinasabi nilang PALUSOT na dahil daw mabagal ang connection.. eh.. nag-sh-share daw ang isang area ng connectivity ng isang bandwidth.. naiintindihan ko naman kung pa’no umaandar yung bandwidth..
eh kaso lang.. kahit alas dos na ngayong nagsusulat ako.. eh napakabaaaaagggggaaaaaaallllll ng napakawalang-hiyang internet provider na ito….parang ginagago nila ako ah.. anu isasagot nila kapag magrereklamo akong kahit alas dos na ng umaga eh napakabagal parin ang koneksyon ko??
ako : ah.. hello..
Smart Bro rep.: Hello! Welcome to smart bro support service. May I know you name?
ako : ako si ako… bakit ang bagal2x ng koneksyon ko?? eh alas dos na ng uma…
Smart Bro: MAY I know your service reference number, sir?
ako: ah eh..#########. ah…ba’t ang bagal2x?? anu ba to?? wala namang tao gising ata anu ba ang nangyayar…..
SmartBro: YES SIR… Please wait a moment.
***few minutes later***
ako : (*umiisip* langhiyang anak ng kabayo.. di man lng niya ako pinatapos…)
SmartBro: Well, sir… I checked your connection area and it seems that your connection is sharing within a busy bandwidth..
ako : lint….anung sharing??? wala na ngang tao gising ata ah..
SmartBRo : the aswangs and multos are also using our internet connection… have a nice evening sir..
April 12th, 2008 at 4:16 pm

May 19th, 2008 at 1:06 pm
I’ve tried surfing the net para lang basahin mga post about positive and negative feedbacks, after reading all the forums marami ang negative feedbacks. Napansin ko na lahat ng internet provider ay may mga nag ko-complain. Mapa smart bro, globe, pldt or bayantel etc etc. lahat naman may nag ko-complain halos di nag kakalayo ang mga complain (poor connection, na disconnect, mabagal etc etc). So nagpakabit ako ng smartbro sa house then globe sa workplace studio ko (few blocks away lang) kinakabahan nga ako baka di sulit ung ibabayad ko sa mga ito dahil ung mga nabasa kong negative. Pero so far ok naman pareho. Halos mag 2months ko na ginagamit at ok naman average naman ung speed. sa smart bro 20kbps - 60kbps umaabot ung speed using torrent. sa globe halos ganun din. ung smart bro ko nde naman sya na di DC. Siguro chambahan din nag kataon na maganda ung connection ko or maybe nakaka tulong ung router ko kasi may booster un. So what im trying to say is try to read the forums pati sa ibang provider then tsaka kayo mag isip.
May 20th, 2008 at 10:59 am
putang ina tlaga etong smart bro.. i cant upload any file.. even attachments i got an error.. mahina ang connection.. i cant use my internet while im downloading torrent file.. what a disaster in my pc.. worst.. ive got this 10.0 kbps connection.. while my friend is up to 100kbps.. mga manloloko. mga gago.. at sinungaling. ang galing nyo mag advertise pero palpak pala promo nyo.. pera lang pala ang habol nyo.. patapusin ko lang un contract ko .. at magswitch na me sa dsl..
putang ina nyo ulit.. ano anong excuse lang ang sinasabi ng techical team nyo.. sana mamatay na kau..

Sabi nila may virus yung computer namin. Eh ga*o pala sila eh! 1week palang yung computer namin nung nagreklamo ako at reformatted pa. Talagang pinoprotektahan lang nila ang walang silbing internet nila. imbis na 384kbps, 100 nalang. hahay nako

I HATE SMART BRO!!! FOR TWO WEEK, I DIDN’T HAVE ANY FUCKING INTERNET CONNECTION. I CALLED THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICES EVERYDAY FOR THAT TWO WEEKS. THEY SAY THE SAME SHIT BUT NOTHING HELPS. I FOLLOWED UP THEIR TECH SUPPORT BY TEXTING THEIR TECHNICIAN AND THIS IS WHAT HE SAID TO “SIR WLA NMN PO ME PNANGAKO N BBLIKAN Q KYO! SMART PO ANG NAG EESCHEDULE NA MGA S.O NMINS ARAW ARAW. TXT NYO NLNGPO C CHARLES MLPT LNG NMN PO SYA S INYO!” WHAT THE FUCK?. I WANTED TO TELL THAT GUY THAT THAT IS HIS FUCKING JOB! AFTER I GOT MY CONNECTION BACK, THEY DIDN’T EVEN GAVE ME ANY REBATES OR DISCOUNTS FOR THAT TWO WEEKS THAT I DIDN’T HAVE CONNECTION. AND THEIR BILLS ALWAYS (ALL THE TIME) ARRIVES LATE. ASIDE FROM THAT, THEY OVERCHARGE YOU. RIGHT NOW, MY BILL HAS 30 PESOS ADDITIONAL PAYMENT. I DON’T KNOW WHERE THE FUCK IT CAME FROM. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE PERSONNEL DON’T KNOW ANYTHING. THEY HAVE TO REPORT EVERYTHING TO SOMEONE BEFORE THEY CAN GIVE PERTINENT ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTION. THEIR SERVICES ARE INCONVENIENT! BEFORE YOU CAN GET THE SERVICE THAT YOU WANT, YOU TO DO THIS AND GO TO THIS PLACE. FUCK THEM. I FUCKING HATE SMART BRO!

i live in fort bonifacio makati and we use my dsl at home. my dsl is heaven sent: its fast and fast and fast. but whenever it rains, the connection, even the phone line, goes dead. but we love it all the same.
i use a prepaid smart bro for my laptop whenever i have to go somewhere and need to use the net. so far smart bro is decent, putol-putol lang that’s all. and whenever there’s a wifi hotspot around where im working, i prefer using that over smart bro because it’s faster for downloads and stuff. come to think of it, i’ve only been subscribed to smart bro prepaid for a couple of months…i wonder if the connection would also go bad…?
July 4th, 2008 at 11:57 pm
TO NINA: give it some time and you’ll also hate smart bro. i only had problems with smart bro after two years of subscribing to it. trust me, you’ll hate it too. specially when you’ll need the help of customer services. IT SUCKS BIG TIME!
July 8th, 2008 at 10:31 pm
