My fiance lives and works in the Fairview section of Quezon City. For the last 18 months or so we have used Yahoo IM and Skype to communicate on a daily basis. What is everyone hearing about current cell and internet coverage in Manila. We are having great difficulty communicating right now and I am assuming it is because of the flooding and heavy weather in the area but I wanted to see if others are experiencing the same problems. Skype video calls are not working at all for us and even the always reliable Yahoo IM seems very sporadic.Is this all due to the flooding? Are others experiencing the same issues?
