“We are pleased to inform our countrymen that DITO has hit another milestone in our journey. As of March 14, close to a week after our first anniversary, we have hit 7-million active subscribers. We wish to express our gratitude to all those who have placed their trust in DITO and assure everyone of our continued efforts to provide world-class connectivity to Filipinos wherever they may be.

In a related development, the country’s newest telco has rolled out next-gen features, DITO Auto Pay and DITO Advance Pay to level-up the subscriber experience, marking DITO’s first year of operations in the Philippines.

Over the last year, DITO has emerged to disrupt the duopoly in the local telecommunications market. The launch of new breakthrough features DITO Auto Pay and DITO Advance Pay represent DITO’s latest innovations as it enters its second year of operations—the first of many more innovations to come.

According to DITO Chief Commercial Officer Evelyn Jimenez, the new features are DITO’s response to the ever-present need of Filipinos to have simple offers that give the best value for money, are hassle-free to acquire, and will elevate subscribers’ experience.

“We’re leveling up the customer experience by introducing new breakthrough features such as DITO AutoPay and DITO Advance Pay—a first in the Philippines’ mobile industry; and we’re excited to showcase all these to our DITOzens as we start our second year of operations in the country,” said Jimenez.

“More than ever, Filipinos are relying on online connections as an essential part of their lives, especially in these extraordinary times. DITO is aware of this need and is committed to making our products simple, hassle-free, and offer the best value for everyone, anytime.” Jimenez said.

Best Value for Money and Worry-Free Convenience

Subscribers can experience great value for their money and worry-free payment convenience with DITO AutoPay and DITO Advance Pay.

With the new DITO Advance Pay feature, DITO subscribers can receive and pay for their promo package 3 months, 6 months or 12 months in advance, giving full control of their promo spending and usage for several months at a time. This could translate to as much as 40% or Php 4,795 savings from their total package cost. You also get as much as 1,560GB of data for only Php 4.61 per GB, one of the lowest data rates in the market today.

With the new DITO Auto Pay feature on the other hand, DITO subscribers can automatically renew and pay for their chosen package every month without worry. When subscribers are about to reach their data cap or their package is about to expire, they will receive a notification to advise them that their package is being renewed.

Subscribers can then enjoy uninterrupted web surfing, video streaming and social media without crossing the data limit. Further, customers can get as much as 10gb of bonus data every month when they avail of DITO Auto Pay.

DITO Telecommunity turns over mobile phone and free service to first Davao City frontliners as part of the commercial launch CSR program

Tweet

DITO Telecommunity, the third major player in the telecommunications industry, announced during their virtual press conference last March 8 that its first act as a commercially launched telecom will be to provide free DITO service to 3,000 frontliners from the Visayas and Mindanao, in recognition of their efforts in building the nation amidst the global pandemic. DITO has begun the rollout of this initiative with 300 frontliners from Davao City.

Atty. Adel Tamano, the Chief Administrative Officer of DITO, said, “We are proud to announce that the first two front liners, a nurse and a public school teacher in Davao City, have already received their free DITO-compatible mobile phones as well as free DITO mobile and internet service.”

On March 19, 2021, the DITO CSR and Trade Marketing team visited Miss Daisylen Apostol, a nurse’s aide assigned to care for COVID-19 patients at the Southern Philippines Medical Center in Davao City, and Miss Mae Ann Jean Justol, Grade 1 teacher at the Alfredo A. Aledia Elementary School in Davao City.

“I am truly honored to be chosen as one of the first recipients of the DITO project for front liners. Malaking tulong ito sa akin para mabilis akong makasagot sa mga calls at messages ng mga pasyente ko. I’m always looking for ways that I can be of better service to the patients placed under my care, lalo na sila ay COVID-19 patients,” said Nurse Daisylen.

She added that, as a nurse’s aide, she plans to undergo further training, especially online, to become a full-fledged nurse in the future.

“When the pandemic struck, it became more important for me to have strong and reliable na internet connection so I can do online studies and research and to attend our regular meetings,” ended Nurse Daisylen.

Teacher Mae had this to say: “This truly is a blessing especially now as we all have to contend with the changes brought about by the pandemic. I am very glad na I am able to continue to conduct classes and do research without fear of being disconnected. I also no longer need to walk around to find internet signal as much. Ay daghang salamat DITO for this and more power!”

The DITO Chief Administrative Officer reminded everyone, “From day one, even before the first ever bid documents were opened and made public, the mandate of providing better and more accessible services has stood as the foundation of DITO Telecommunity. As we continue to expand our coverage and as we continue to provide services especially to the front liners, we are optimistic that we will live up to our mandate and our commitment to the Filipino people.”
