SMART slashes surfing costs with new mobile Internet packages

Prepaid subscribers of leading wireless services provider Smart Communications, Inc. (SMART) may now take advantage of the most affordable mobile Internet rates, with the Budget Surf and Daily Surf mobile Internet packages.

These bucket-priced packages enable Smart Buddy subscribers to use their cellphones to go and stay online to post photos and videos, update their blogs, chat or send emails, and browse through their favorite social networking sites at a fixed and low cost.

The packages also makes SMART the first mobile operator in the Philippines – a predominantly ‘prepaid’ market — to offer pay-as-you-go ‘data’ plans at the lowest-ever rate of as little as P.14 per minute, as more and more Filipinos take up the use of the mobile phone as a tool to conveniently access the Internet.
