To The Moon And Back

I received my phone and DSL invoice yesterday and one of the flyers inside was about this new feature for PLDT subscribers. It’s called askPLDT and works basically as an information and directory service. Simply dial the numbers 101-811 using your PLDT landline and you can have access to ALMOST all questions that’s bugging you. There’s no information online so I can’t grab any marketing banner or logo.

Amazing huh. I’m very happy to have this feature because my husband and I often find ourselves asking the following questions - “what’s the plumber’s number?”, “do you have the number for taxy service?”, “what’s the number for pizza??”, “we need a carpenter! go fetch the guard to find someone”. Now all we have to do is dial 101-811 and voila! Problem solved. I hope.

PLDt is known for bad customer service so I wonder what they were thinking when they launched this service? I guess I’ll call them all the time just to ask why their customer service sucks. LOL. We’ll see how this goes. First 30 inquiries per month are free by the way.
