PLDT Accelerates Home Ultera's Network Migration
PLDT will decommission around 185 cellular towers that provide Time-Division Duplex Long-Term Evolution or TD-LTE connectivity to Home Ultera by the end of July 2022.
This means that over 3,000 Home Ultera customers who are eligible for service migration will have the choice of migrating to higher-speed fixed fiber plans or to a postpaid wireless service for the home at no additional cost and for an improved customer experience.
