NSO ONLINE APPLICATION...BREEZY USING GLOBE G-CASH

It's the time of the year again when i have lots of idle time.  So to make use of the available time and turn it to productive ones, i'm thinking of renewing my expired ID's and to do so first i need to request NSO birth certificate.  The last one i requested was way back 2007 which i used to apply for passport to HongKong.

I know, it's been quite some time!!! :P

So i went to their website to get birth certificate.  
You can click on the link to get to their website to file an application for Birth Certificate, Marriage Certificate, Death Certificate and CENOMAR.

Online Application Starts Here

After filling-up the application form, you can save it and proceed on the next step, paying for the application.

You can either choose online or offline payment.  Online payments being the most easiest since you can pay with just few clicks.  I choosed G-Cash since it's the easiest available mode of payment for me.  Upon sending the number of my G-Cash on the slot provided, i have received text message to confirm sending of payment.  

Confirmation of payment was also sent to my e-mail once done and all i have to do is wait 2 to 3 days for delivery.

XEND EXPRESS EPIC FAIL...AGAIN!

And so I am a irate customer right now.  Quite pissed off to be honest.  I've used Xend express for quite long time, apart from very bad experience that i've encountered before everything is going well until this. AGAIN.

XEND EPIC FAIL 1

Around first week of August, we have sent 6 blankets in a plastic stripes packaging bound with tapes to compact items to minimize the bulkiness.

That costs PHP 820 and so the package seems overcharged considering average weight is less than 6 kilograms.

Last July 23 we have sent 6 blankets to the same address and was only billed PHP 580, quite a huge disparity. Each blanket actually weighs less than a kilo ( around 1/2 for single size blanket and 3/4 of a kilo for double size ones).

 Sometime last week I complained thru their resolution center of this.  
After sending the proof and all communications done thru e-mails.  I have received call earlier today saying the volumetric weight of the package that LBC has charged them is of 10 kilos.  That the actual volumetric weight of package is 11 kilos! This photo says otherwise

And would be entitled to refund of only PHP 80 for the 1 kilo discrepancy.  I say what the HECK!  Not to mention that buyer said 1 blanket has gone missing so i refunded her for that,  dunno how it was lost, tragic transaction indeed.

And so we have opted to send use JRS to send bulky package the next time around.  This package contains 5 blankets and was only billed around PHP 250.  What a relief!  I have refunded the excess postage cost billed to my client because of that.

 As of now, i'm asking them of proof that LBC has in fact billed them for 10 kilos.  

TO BE UPDATED...

LESSON LEARNED: NEVER USE XEND EXPRESS FOR BULKY PACKAGES

WTH!

It was just last night since the semis ended.  

Sadly the team I was rooting for lost the ticket to the finals.   

So that was it, I was saddened but positive that time will come for the Kings to #ReclaimTheThrone as die-hard fans hash tags on twitter say.   

But today is different, I was pissed.  Not because my team lost.  It was how somebody reacted to my tweet.  It was truly shallow but I cannot help but react, wanting to vent.  So what the heck!

How my love for the team starts. 

I have been watching basketball since I was a child, maybe not the PBA but the local inter-barangay teams playing. Interest grows in highschool. It was in late high-school and college when I was able to get to know the PBA teams. As far as I can remember, it was cheering for Purefoods then, Alvin Patrimonio being my favorite, humble and great player.  Of course I also enjoyed watching, the eye-candy, Richie Ticzon.  My sisters was already cheering for Ginebra at that time, crushing on Vince Hizon, yihee!!! (dear sisters, just this shows the age you are now at, peace!) And Big J was already playing and coaching at that time.  Sundays was mostly our bonding time where we would spend watching PBA on television.  Mirienda time spent with pandesal and ice cream or hot noodles. But that was it, clean fun and entertainment.

Then there comes, Rudy freaking Hatfield!  And i was mesmerized.  Yup i'm self-confessed fan-addict of the H-Bomb.  Who would not be...i was sold by the eyes...damn! I'd cut-out articles and photo as hang it out on my bed side. My teenage giggling self is indeed guilty of chasing and cheering the team he's with. From Tanduay to Coca Cola.  And not until late 2012, i have renewed my passion for watching the ball, it has been some time off that i barely know the players.  Of course the magnet that takes me back to the game is my all-time favorite, Rudy Hatfield, who was back playing for Barangay Ginebra San Miguel. And yeah he's now married with kids! Indeed a long period of time has passed.  But still all praises to H-BOMB, he is not just good looking. Loving his personality - great heart - passion, dedication, hard-work along with the goofiness and all. Thanks to the onset of the social media, we get to have step closer to our favorites. Now i'm deeply sold. It was kinda heart breaking when news break out that he's retiring.  I indeed felt so much older, why, my favorite cager is now retiring! :) So at this point, lemme pay tribute to my basketball King...would he be in WWE if he did not become professional basketball player? LOL

We miss the hustle but we are forever thankful.

Trivia: Rudy Hatfield was hailed as the newest member of the 2,000 defensive rebounds club, July 2012.

Love the WWE antics on interview, goofiness overload

 

New blood

After the end of 2013 Commissioner's Cup came the never-ending trade begins. It was somewhat heartbreaking, but the team needs a re-haul after the heart breaking finals sweep by Alaska. It was indeed a journey by Ginebra Kings, after being the seventh seed, we kicked ROS in eliminations, battled TNT for the semis and entered the Finals wounded.  Needless to say, we've been to war to enter the finals, players and import are now injured or not 100% well. If the Kings won that game, it could be the perfect basketball movie plot that would make box-office records, considering the huge fan base the team has, imagine the record breaking attendance for every big game that Ginebra plays.  After the Governors Cup, the draft was held, November of 2013 at Robinsons Ermita. Out of curiosity, i joined the mammoth crowd and was star-strucked.
