As mentioned in previous reports, DITO’s promo will only cover select areas where it has coverage. These include:

To avail of the DITO Welcome Offer, users must download the DITO App via the link included in the activation SMS, which will be sent to the subscriber after activating the SIM card.
From there, users will need to create and account on the DITO App, where DITO will give an initial password via SMS.
From the App Home Page, users will find a “Welcome Offer” button, which is the Php 199 unlimited internet promo. The subscriber will receive the confirmation both through the App and SMS.
With its first technical audit, DITO managed to cover 37.48% of the population, focusing mostly in Visayas and Mindanao. With the initial tests, DITO managed to deliver an average speed of 85.9Mbps for 4G and 507.5Mbps for 5G networks.
Being a new telco player, we will still have to wait and see if DITO will be able to deliver its promise.
