A defining feature of over-the-top (OTT) services, such as Netflix, is allowing users to binge-watch shows at their convenience. With an extensive library of movies and series, these services cater to every individual’s on-demand streaming needs, especially for those who have a lot on their plate at home, work, and school.
This convenience is precisely why Kapampangan journalist Albert Lacanlale finds Netflix particularly appealing. As the operations head of SunStar Pampanga and a broadcaster for Central Luzon Television (CLTV) 36, Lacanlale’s demanding routine leaves him little time to watch scheduled programs on regular cable TV.
Fortunately, Netflix now allows him to stream movies and shows whenever it suits him.
“Back then, with regular cable channels, you had to wait every week for new episodes. Now, everything’s complete. When I have time, I can watch several episodes in one sitting. You couldn’t do that before. If you missed an episode, that’s it. But with Netflix, you can go back, rewatch anytime, and even replay certain parts,” he shared.
Recently, Lacanlale discovered the Converge Netflix Bundle, an internet subscription plan that combines enhanced internet connectivity with seamless streaming through Netflix.
It is a connectivity and entertainment solution that features a boosted FiberX plan with 325 Mbps speeds, a Netflix subscription, a WiFi-6 Next Gen Modem, and an Android TV box called Converge Xperience Box, all put together in a single plan.
“Since I’m working on the radio, one time I had guests from Converge promoting the new product, the Converge Netflix Bundle. That was the first time I heard about it. That time, I had two different plans I pay separately every month – a Netflix account and my internet subscription. I thought, “Why don’t I just try it here instead?”” Lacanlale said.
He appreciates the ease brought by having his Netflix account tied with his internet plan, which eliminates the extra work of renewing two separate subscriptions monthly.
Additionally, the upgraded internet speed easily accommodates the family’s daily connectivity needs, whether it’s supporting their CCTV cameras at home, or enabling their daily binge.
“For someone working in media, I always need an internet connection when I’m writing. And when I’m not at home, I need to monitor what’s happening there through our CCTV. I have Netflix on my phone when I want to watch privately but when watching with the family, we use the TV. My kids also share the account with me. So with this bundle, all of us are connected to Netflix and our internet is still fast.”
He also expressed satisfaction with the Converge Xperience Box, which they set up in the living area to entertain guests with its wide array of channels.
“This Converge Netflix Bundle is highly recommended, and I would definitely recommend it to my friends,” he said.
