Converge boosts internet speeds to support Filipino households amid fuel crisis

This initiative builds on the ongoing commitment of Converge to bridge the digital divide and leave no Filipino behind during this digital age, especially at times of economic and social challenges.

In response to the ongoing fuel crisis and its impact on mobility and daily expenses, leading fiber broadband and technology services provider Converge ICT Solutions Inc. today announced a nationwide speed boost for its FiberX internet plans.

“This initiative aims to empower customers to stay productive, connected, and informed as more Filipinos choose – or are compelled – to stay at home as rising fuel costs affect commuting and household budgets,” said Converge CEO and Co-Founder Dennis Anthony Uy.

“In response to the call of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and Department of Information and Communications Technology Secretary Henry Aguda to help ease the burden of rising oil prices to our people, Converge is stepping in by enabling faster, more reliable internet access—at no additional cost to our subscribers,” he said.

Starting April 1, 2026, Converge is increasing the broadband speed of its flagship FiberX plans by 50 Mbps. The speed boost will initially be provided for a period of one month or until April 30, 2026, and will apply to both existing and new subscribers.

“By boosting internet speeds, we are ensuring that our customers can continue to work, study, run businesses, and stay connected with loved ones without disruption. The faster speeds allow smoother video calls, faster downloads, and improved streaming quality,” said Uy.
