Sun connected even in the middle of the sea
MANILA, Philippines - Diving has been the passion of 39- year-old Ziggy Abella for more than half his lifetime. Abella loves diving with fellow enthusiasts and marveling at the beauty and the richness of the country’s marine life.
Divebros offers diving services including education for divers from entry level to dive master level and organizes tours for groups and individuals. “We are different from other operators,” Ziggy Abella says. “We offer personalized service, from the moment our clients land at the airport all the way to their departure. We pick them up upon arrival, take care of their accommodations, the actual dive, even the fellowship at night.”
Ziggy wanted a communications partner he could rely on – one that offered efficiency and seamless connectivity at the best prices. He found all these at Sun Cellular. He is now able to run Divebros Inc. easily and more efficiently than ever.
“Iyon naman ang pupose naming talaga when we got Sun Plan 999,” explains Ziggy. Because the plan features three free phones with individual separate lines, he says it is perfect for the three key people in Divebros’ operations. “One is me, the other is my business partner, Aladin Rivera, and the third is our guy in Anilao.”
He acknowledges that his business benefits a lot from Sun’s Call and Text Unlimited service. “Communication is the key to our operation. Before, we had to make do with two-way radio which did not address all our connectivity concerns because it only worked in Anilao. But now, even in Manila, I can call Anilao anytime. This is crucial because our business demands quick decision making. For instance, I have to coordinate about logistics and dive schedules. So, it is important that I am constantly in touch with my colleages. Di ba, pag hindi unlimited, tinitipid mo? With Sun Cellular, you can discuss matters extensively without worrying about escalating costs. Sa Sun, tawag ka lang, unlimited pa!”
Ziggy guarantees Divebros divers of Sun’s full-bar signal strength. “If you’re on the boat in Anilao, malakas and signal ng Sun! , even when I’m in the middle of the sea, specifically in Balayan Bay. The connection is strong and clear! Reliable!”
His wife and kids are also Sun Users. He says he can talk to his family anytime, anywhere he is. He is happy to share that his nine-year-old daughter calls him a lot, calls him for no reason at all and texts him constantly.
Other than being the owner of Divebros, Inc. Ziggy is also the business development manager of Scuba World in San Juan. He divides his time between his own business and a full-time job. He needs to stay connected with both Divebros and Scuba World.
Another Sun Cellular product that accompanies him wherever he goes is the Sun Double Unlimited (SDU), the wireless landline service that doesn’t need an extra SIM card or handset. “With SDU, I only pay additional P249 to call any landline phone! Very convenient!” Even his household staff can call him from the landline. And when paying bills, his wireless landline helps him too.
