Tropical storm Basyang (international name: Conson) hit manila on July 13, 2010. It packed winds from 95 to 120 km per hour. At midnight of that day, there was a massive blackout in luzon. As of 9:30am of July 14, 2010, cellular service are as follows:

Smart and PLDT Landline plus: Up and running well

 Globe: Low signal to none

Sun: No signal since midnight

 I guess that it is smart to go with smart specially when it comes to emergencies.

Globe's 5 peso/15 min internet PDF Print E-mail

I just found out that globe has a new offering as an altenative option for the 0.15 centavo per KB service. They have a 5 pesos for every 15 minutes. Something similar to smart's 10 pesos for 30 minutes. 

To avail of that, you need to send a message 'time' to 1111 to  switch to that feature.

A smart employee did say that you have to be wary about that because if it gets disconnected, they will charge you another 5 pesos. I have no information about that at this point so caveat emptor.
