It is hard for anyone to do their work or studies without internet connection — especially for media people.
That is evident after Converge ICT had a Luzon-wide service interruption this Tuesday.
Some notable figures in the news industry went to Twitter to vent out their frustration with the said internet service provider.
Converge, kaya maayos today? This week? This month? This year? Kaya ba? @Converge_CSU

Importante talaga ngayon may back up internet. Daming mapupurnadang trabaho. Sakit sa ulo ng mga naka-online class & work from home niyan.

Seriously, naawa na ko sa Converge. He looked so overworked. He may not be perfect, but he truly loves this country. My router breaks down… Praying for our internet connection. 🙏🏼😔

@Converge_CSU pakibilisan naman yung pag-restore ng system. Hassle kung ililipat ko pa sa Globe network namin yung speakers for streaming music over the internet. Hindi masyadong user friendly yung WiFi setup procedure ng Bose.

According to Converge’s latest advisory Tuesday evening, internet service resumed in North and Central Luzon.
But NCR and South Luzon subscribers have to wait to have their connection that is expected within the next hours.
