Rest assured we would contact the corresponding providers. If there is no service, it is affecting the whole of Metro Manila so be patient. - During the holiday season particulalry Christmas and New Years, there are more people using the internet within Metro Manila so this would impact the service. >>>>>We are NOT: - providing a 5 star hotel service - like your home where you can get all the comforts and amenities you would need
