PLDT Waho - Work at home call center solution
June 3rd, 2007 | by edXcribe |The w@ho (Work At Home) PLDT Advertisement on Inquirer reads:
Off the top of your head… How many call center agents are you going to lose this year?
w@ho (Work At Home) is service of PLDT that equips call center agents with a high-quality internet connection at home. Quality of connection is (supposedly) so good that they can take voice calls (voip) and connect to their employer’s call centre infrastructure as if they were right there inside the call center office.
This is a good solution. It will help our call center kababayans “get a life”. It gives call center agents more time with family at home, reduces commute time and reduced risk from travelling during odd hours.
It also helps call centers bring down operating costs. For example, the call center can have 1,000 agents at their respective homes and won’t have to maintain a large office space. All the other costs of maintaining a flock of 1,000 agents (electricity, security, supplies etc.) will be reduced.
Lastly, this allows more of our workforce to enter into the call center industry which, prior to working at home, requires the physical presence of an agent at the call center’s office. Now a single mother, for example, won’t have to sacrifice her call center career because she can have both career and time with the baby.

I wonder if there are pure virtual Philippine call centers already…
By JP Loh on Jun 3, 2007 | Reply
This will work for call centers that don’t handle sensitive information. The problem is that most call centers do.
Majority of them are outbound campaigns which are call centers’ primary source of income.

hi jp,
Thanks for sharing!
I think there are ways to handle sensitive info, both human and systems solutions.
Entrepreneurs make it work, corporations can too.
I have a friend with a Medical transcriptions business.
Around 70% of his transcriptionists work from home (or at their nearby internet shop).
Some of his transcriptionists he has *never* met face-to-face.

If someone was interested in this, where does one apply?
What other work at home can there be? Aside from doing call center stuff?
By ka edong on Jun 20, 2007 | Reply
I believe it’s a corporate solution. Not available for retail customers.
Other work at home stuff: medical/legal transcriptions, animation, digital design, autocadd, editing, picking one’s nose
… think of any computer/telephone-based work that does not require physical presence in the office — these can be done at home.

Hi ka.edong, i just want to know how to apply for this kind of job.Im a full time Mom but would want to have a job that will help our financial needs.God bless you
By ka edong on Jul 16, 2007 | Reply
hi mhel.
This is not an online job offer. it’s a corporate solution to enable enterprises to allow their call center agents to do their work from home.
see http://www.2minutecommute.com/ for some ideas on how to work from home.
Goodluck!
mabu-hey!

this is good, but problem with most pldt modems, it doesn’t work with VoIP devices, needs to do major reconfiguration first, and it sucks big time!
By ka edong on Jul 18, 2007 | Reply
major reconfiguration of PLDT modems? Really?
I suppose that will be covered for the subscriber by the W@ho service team.

There are a lot of work at home opportunities. But sad to say, there’s also a lot of scam work at home opportunities.
For me, I do employ some people to work for me (work at home). I have people write blogs for me.
Example
http://www.chikamuna.com
http://www.gadgetmetro.com
http://www.manicmobile.com
http://www.lindsaywatch.com
http://www.fashionempress.com
http://www.hiltonbuzz.com
and some other blogs.
Sometimes I have SEO (search engine optimization) related project and I assign them to people who work for me.
There are a lot more ideas. You can check it out at my blog http://www.2minutecommute.com

hi ka edong. I’m a 33yr old call center agent who resigned because of sleeping problems because of a graveyard shift system of a certain call center company. When I saw WAHO I am very interested but have a few questions:
* May I select the most suitable time for me or maybe the suitable shift?
* Do you have an account with weekend rest days?
* What’s the name of the company?
* May I know what accounts you have and positions?
* Do you have a chat and email support?
Thanks Very Much Ka Edong and Best Regards

That will just worsten the condition of the QUALITY of CUSTOMER SERVICE. PLDT has the worst customer service in the whole wide world. Balahura talaga mga agents dyan. They will put you on mute tapos they will talk behind your back na parang mumurahin ka pa dahil tumatawag ka. Well, I came from a call center, I know how they feel about taking in calls pero ang kaibahan lang namin, although US-based ang clients namin, hindi naman kami ganoon ka-walang hiya na kung anu anu ang sasabihin sa customers pag naka-mute or hold.
To sum it up, PLDT is a good company, but they have the worst employees especially in the customer service department.

I really like this article of PLDT WAHO. Yes, there are more benefits earned upon working at home rather than working in an establishment. It is true that, not only the employee benefited for it but also the employer it self. Yet, there is a possibility that an employer will not know much of his/her employee, but still it is a good idea for him/her to lessen the business expenses like building the office for his/her employees. Great idea!
