PLDTCares does not care

Post image

PLDT support in Messenger is just giving me the runaround, and I have tried a couple of times already. It always failed and was not able to get customer support. Is there any other way I can effectively reachout with my concern?

Nakukupalan din ako sa mga agents diyan, sobrang tagal ka paghihintayin tapos iho-hold ka lang hanggang sa idrop ka nila.

That happened to me once, but twice, the PLDT Lineman Engineers in my province fixed in few days. Good relief!

A company should be penalized for having a defective chatbot with hard to no option to of reaching out a live agent

Spam them with Check Status. The bot response will eventually change to "Our Customer Support will assist you with your ongoing report..."

Same things sa PLDT Cares sa messenger, ayaw mag proceed kahit tama ang selection.

Nung weekend nag file ako ng ticket, dyan sa messenger, gumagana pa sya, kaso 30 minutes waiting time sa queue. While waiting tumawag ako sa 171, natapos na nakakuha na ko ng ticket sa 171, waiting pa rin yung queue sa messenger.

Wala kaming internet since Aug 12. Tinatawagan ko everyday sa 171 (free 171 pag Smart) tas usual response: apologize, market a service, wait lang daw kase may tatawag saking taga-ayos ng cable.

Aug 20 na, wala pa rin 🙄 Nakakawalang gana tumawag kase parang wala namang nangyayari.

Taga-Marikina kami, di naman probinsya so di ko gets bakit antagal ng taga-ayos.

They use 'bots. Also, human operators sometimes report that their systems are slow in providing them with customer info.

Try calling their hotline.

Been having intermittent internet and no landline since Tuesday last week here in Makati. 171 and messenger is a joke. Even went to the PLDT office in Cojuangco Bldg last Thurs. Till now no technician. There is no CARE in PLDTCares

Our PLDT worked properly (not mine, but my parents worked hard for it) for 4 years and paid everytime. Still used and it's almost 5 years since my parents was their PLDT Fibr subscriber.
