Customers of the country’s largest telco network PLDT Inc. and its wireless unit Smart Communications, Inc. (Smart) now enjoy an elevated level of experience with the newly launched PLDT and Smart digital hubs in SM Clark in Pampanga and Abreeza Mall in Davao.

Strategically located in the major commercial hubs of Central Luzon and Mindanao, these digital hubs make it convenient for the growing number of families, business, and communities within their vicinity to enjoy the services of PLDT and Smart.

Customers can drop by these digital hubs for their aftersales transactions for Smart and PLDT, as well as payments for individual and corporate accounts. They can also apply for Smart Signature and PLDT Home Fibr postpaid plans while shopping in the mall.

Smart also dominated the ‘Best Mobile Coverage’ category with a Coverage 794, surpassing its closest competitor’s Coverage Score of 732.
