In the wake of the pandemic, we have to admit that things have becoming a bit difficult for us. That’s why companies strive to give us better services. This time, PLDT and Grab are announcing partnership. 

PLDT—one of the country’s top internet service provider—and Grab, known as SouthEast Asia’s leading application for vehicle and delivery services, are teaming up to provide internet solutions directly towards the Filipinos’ homes. 

Both companies understood the concept of the ‘new normal’, and how important technology will play a part during these trying times. This is why PLDT and Grab are in cooperation so when customers order PLTD Home and Smart products, it can easily be delivered to their location within 24 hours. 

Home customers can already order PLDT Home WiFi Prepaid units via the website, with Grab providing the delivery of the items through their Grab Express delivery service. Customers can settle their purchase through credit or debit, and they can also decide on cash upon delivery.
