Lazada's Bad Customer Service

It was way back in 2012 when we first had a bad experience with the said Online Shop. We placed an order for a baby bag for our upcoming baby and to our dismay we never got the item and never had any updates about it. Good thing we chose cash on delivery as an option that time.

Everyone deserves a second chance thus, we gave LAZADA another shot. Only to be disappointed once again.  Me and my wife placed an order for 1 vacuum for our house, 1 vacuum for our car, 1 set of blender and 2 packs of Pamper’s active dry (82+8).

We got weird notifications saying that we made a request to postpone our orders which we didn’t! Then we got another email and text notification that the orders are on its way.  To our  surprise another notification was received that we requested to delay the orders again! The notifications happened 6 times which was really annoying.

(First Package)

The order was place on September 27 2014 and we got the Diapers and the Max health Cyclone Vacuum Cleaner on September 30 2014. We already had a hunch and has been wondering why the car vacuum and the blender still hasn’t arrived but we waited patiently. It’s already October  5, 2014 and still no blender and car vacuum…

LIARS?

I can’t remember how many times I’ve called the representatives of lazada. I can’t say anything good with the previous representatives I’ve talked with. Each time I call I get a different information. First call said the order is already in the warehouse ready to be shipped. Second call the agent advised me that the order is already at 2go courier and even gave me a tracking number! I searched the tracking number at 2go’s website and nothing showed up. Third call I was already mad as the third representative informed me that the item is still on their warehouse. They made an escalation and said I would get an update on Monday. I hope they do give me a follow up about it…

Things just went from worse to worst. The vacuum cleaner we bought is defective! We tested it when we got it and it was working fine. Now that it’s Sunday “The Perfect day to clean the house” it didn’t even last for half an hour and it’s already not working! I already went to LBC to get the thing replaced and I’m hoping they would replace it or else I might have a heart attack! All items even the ones that are a still being shipped are already paid. I don’t pick money out of trees. Like all other people I work for it and definitely want value out of these products.

All in all it was a nightmare making transactions with this Online Shop. It’s sad because I was just getting used on making online transactions and never had this experience with other online shops.

I know it looks like I’m ranting but I just want to express my opinion and experience.

 Lazada keeps on sending me emails and surveys about my experience. Well now they have it here.

One Of The First People To Buy An iPhone 6 Dropped It On TV

We all experience that anticipation, excitement and overwhelming joy when unboxing that brand new phone of ours.

Australian Jack Cooksey was the first person in Perth to get a new iPhone, making him one of the first people in the world to get a new iPhone 6. So he was interviewed on TV then the horror happened.

Jack applied a little too much force upon struggling on his first attempt to unbox the phone. Holding a phone that cost like gold and being infront of the camera might have made him just a bit tad too nervous to remove the lid of the box. The iphone 6 and concrete definitely isn't a good combination.

Next time you buy a phone a like this, a rugged case is definitely needed.

P.S. Jack says the phone "amazingly" was working just fine.

Seat Belts Save Lives

In support to Toyota's Seat belt campaign.

I joined the campaign to make everyone mostly our fellow Filipino to use seat belt. 

Airbags is cool and awesome but works best with the said life saver tool.

Here's my own design of a seat belt. The app is already gone though :D

In the hope of making “It’s more fun in the Philippines” into “It’s more fun and safer in the Philippines” Let’s all go an extra mile in being leaders towards safety by promoting the importance of seatbelts.

The change always starts with you and ends with how much influence you’ve done to others. Be a leader that will take people miles and miles away towards a better road.

The road to success is nothing, when the ride you use is unbecoming.  It’s there for a reason. A seatbelt can save your life and the lives of others. Thank you Toyota for leading this campaign towards a safer Philippines, towards a safer world!

Let's all be safety leader towards a better road for everyone.

Iceberg Restaurant at the Tip of your tongue~

When all else fails there’s always Iceberg Restaurant to fulfill our satisfaction for some good savory food and mouth watering desserts.

My old time favorite is their “Spicy Pork Chop” 1pc P178 and 2 pcs P238. I don’t usually eat spicy food but this one have just enough hint of spiciness. Unlike those that feels like prickly needles on your tongue. This however provides just the enough heat you need to induce your appetite and keeps you coming back for more.

My wife went for the “Crispy Fish Fillet Glazed In Adobo Mango Sauce” P198. A perfect combination of adobo sauce and ripe mango. The blend is just pure bliss. It didn't occur to us that we’d enjoy it as much as we did. The saltiness and sweetness is just perfect.

Finally the most awaited part of the meal, desserts! We usually go for the Halo-Halo P108 or Mais Con Yelo P128 because they definitely don’t hold back on their ingredients but we decided to try the “Strawberry Sunday” P148 and from presentation to taste it definitely didn’t let us down to our expectation.

See the almost clean plate on the background? We just couldn’t resist eating every bit of it haha.

Every visits definitely makes us look forward to coming back for more. Hope you enjoyed reading and go try it for yourselves!
