North Park Noodle House Refuses Senior Citizen Authorization Letter (Ire)

I wrote this on the FB page of North Park Noodle House:

Hello. I went to the North Park Noodle House at SM Hypermarket Cubao this morning, 04 Nov 2014, and I was informed that if the senior citizen is not present, an authorization letter from OSCA is required, and the one that I had brought with my father's signature will not be recognized.

 The manager at opening time (I picked up the congee for my bedridden father at 8:47am, OR# 0097448) applied the 20% but warned me that all future transactions from any North Park Noodle House would require the aforementioned OSCA authorization.

 However, when I inquired at the OSCA in Pasig City Hall, I was told that they are NOT ALLOWED to issue authorization letters. Moreover, the Senior Citizen Office says that by virtue of RA 994, the 20% is guaranteed by law, and asking for an OSCA authorization creates the impression that management wishes to avoid following the law. 

 I hope your present policy will be reexamined. Thank you very much for your kind attention.

Antipolo Jeep Plays Offensive Music (Ire)

On my way to Philhealth Rizal at Sta. Lucia, I rode an Antipolo jeep, which had one of those blaring sound systems. Barely a few minutes into the ride, the driver chose to play a song that repeatedly chanted, "P-tang ina." As the song progressed, the lyrics degenerated to lines that contained the words: k-ntutan, itlog, etc. Although he has the right to listen to music that he enjoys, I think that right overlaps with other people when it's being played in public. So when the jeep stopped to take on passengers, I slid to the front, tapped the driver on the shoulder, and told him, "Kuya, ang bastos-bastos." He immediately caught on to what I meant and changed the music.

Converge ICT Switcher Promo

 We thought switching to PLDT Fiber would solve our internet speed problems. It did for a while but it came to a point that certain sites, like Canva, wouldn't load at all. It was so frustrating that we grabbed the chance to avail of the Converge ICT Switcher promo. The freebies of 3 months were a perk but we were just happy with a faster internet speed that met our needs. Thankfully, our Converge Account Officer helped us process our application. It was approved after five days. And now, we are so happy with the internet speed because we can now do our work in a timely manner. #PLDT #PLDTFiber #Converge #fastinternet #thebachelorgirl

Insurance Commission May Compel Danvil to Pay More (Eye)

A call to Danvil at their Alabang office (tel. no. 828.0468/6184) on 05 May 2014 produced the same answer for the past months: the termination checks cannot be released due to a hold by the Insurance Commission. The delay turned out to be good news. I managed to speak with Ms. Sally Bactol of the Actuarial Dept. in the Insurance Commission who explained the delay. The Danvil audit report is currently with the Management Committee (ManCom), of which the Chief Deputy Commissioner is part of, and who, in turn, will make his recommendation to the Insurance Commissioner. The suspension of payments is due to the fact that ManCom wants to ensure that Danvil's coffers will be at a zero balance, i.e. all possible payments are given to its clients, which means there's a very good possibility that the current offer by Danvil at 50% of the policy's value may become higher, as ordered by the Insurance Commission. When I raised my concern that my mother had already signed the termi...
