Dear Sun Cellular

An old friend asked me to post this on my blog, hoping Sun Cellular would listen and read:

Opening a New Sun Cellular Account

To Whom It May Concern:

Last 18MAR06 I applied for a new Sun Cellular account. I have passed
the necessary requirements as stated in your website.

1. Completely filled-up application form.

2. Valid ID – SSS ID.

3. A. Proof of Billing

– Electricity Bill
– Water Bill

I live in a condominium where the electric and water bills do not bear
the names Meralco or MWSS.

B. Proof of Income – Form 2316 and last 2 payslips.

I vividly remember the lady attending my application informing me to expect 2-3 days processing time. Great!

After 1 week I receive a call requesting for additional statements. Recalling that the statements I provided (water and electricity bills) might not be acceptable, I decided to forward my last 2 credit card statements. I intentionally crossed out my credit card numbers.

Today (28 of March ’06) I receive a call informing me to submit another creditcard statement with my credit card numbers revealed. I will do no such thing and I demand a valid explanation. Anybody in their right mind will not disclose their credit card information to anyone who already has one’s personal information.

I believe I have submitted the necessary requirements. Either you approve my application or not, I don’t really care anymore. I’m no longer excited.

This will definitely fall on deaf ears. Prove me wrong by giving me a response. You know how to reach me.

    I totally agree.. I have submitted all necessary requirements already and keep the 3-4 days processing agreement. It has been two weeks now and they always say the application is still in status.

    Yup. I too applied for a postpaid plan in their Farmers Cubao Branch. I gave them my credit card history but specifically told them that I do not want my postpaid bills auto-deducted. They said they’d call me in 3-5 days. This was on the last week of March. On the afternoon of the 5th day, I was getting frustrated waiting, and it was nearing the holy week break, so I tried texting them to follow up the status of my application. Sheesh…If I hadn’t contacted them they wouldn’t tell me that they needed more reference people. Just the same, I gave them more contacts for their background check. After sending it to them they told me that my application was approved for auto-deduction. I told them that I did not approve of auto-deduction. They said I should submit a copy of my ITR quickly so they can have it processed, but I couldn’t do this since the people in the office were already on holy week break. Holy week passed. On April 11 I received a call from them telling me that my application was approved on the basis of credit card auto deduction. I told them that I told “Dobbel” (the rep’s name) that I didn’t want this and decided to pass my ITR instead. I submitted the copy of my ITR the same day. The following day, I received yet another call from Sun Cellular telling me that my application was approved again on the basis of credit card deduction. I grew tired of them and just had to berate the person I was talking to. I vented my frustration out telling her that I’ve already lost count on the number of times I told them that I will not have my postpaid expenses auto-deducted and that I have just submitted my ITR the other day. They should check my records. She said she’d check and call back…until now I have yet to receive a call from them. Grabe ang ineptitude sa Sun Cellular. Nakaka-drain.
