Nine, Twenty Three, Twenty Eleven

After three months of my request for the transfer of service for my phone and internet. My service got transferred, finally. When was the date of transfer? Take a guess. But the phone had no dial tone for almost two weeks.

In my previous blog, I mentioned about subscribing to my previous internet provider. That one I had when I was in Makati City. I had a second thought, in view of too many months of service disconnects. When I transferred to Pasig City, I subscribed to Philippines main phone and internet provider PLDT. I requested to transfer the service in July to the new apartment, I am renting now. I was denied transfer for the reason the connection will be passing through private properties. PLDT was referring to the other apartment units.

PLDT advised I need to hire my own electrician to hook up a drop or phone wires from the pole to my unit with the permission of the owner of the property. I got busy with other work and home activities and set aside for the while the issue. One time, I was asked by the apartment manager what happened to my phone transfer. Alas! He agreed to hook up a phone wire from the pole to the house free of charge. I rewarded his effort with some few Pesos and a bottle of coke for his snacks.

The rest is history folks. I am happy to be using a faster internet connection compared to the prepared USB internet wireless modem I used for a while. The USB prepaid gadget is plug in to the USB port of my computer. It was what I had been using in the absence of my DSL modem. It belongs to my niece. My problem is, I had to endure the slow internet connection and disconnects while online. The USB uses a prepaid card like that of a calling card to connect to internet.

Happy blogging days are here again, folks! ☺
