- PLDT Home inserted humor in a few replies to customer concerns.
- They have made puns with their tweets to netizens inquiring about their services.
Customer Care is always a crucial part of any business.
How you treat your customers and address their concerns can make or break your enterprise. You need to say the right words and take the right action to satisfy their needs.
Complaints are tricky and quite frustrating to handle since you’re going to be dealing with annoyed and demanding people.
PLDT Home is one of the biggest companies in the country, which means that they also receive countless of customer inquiries daily.
One of the ways you can reach out to them is via Twitter. Netizens often tweet them about their problems and the handler will respond right away.
Amid the professional and serious replies, a few entertaining ones stick out like a thumb. The person behind the account remains calm and showcases wit as they reply to some netizens’ concerns.
In a couple of tweets, they composed their message using Taylor Swift song titles.
We feel like TEARDROPS ON MY GUITAR knowing that you are in TROUBLE with your connection, @magentajoyce26. No worries, we will SHAKE IT OFF all the issues in your service for you to come OUT OF THE WOODS. 1/2
It was going well until they decided to insert a line from a song by one of Swift’s exes. Hmmm…

The netizen took it as a challenge and expressed her frustration by replying on the same manner that PLDT tweeted.
For what, to make your #reputation CLEAN? Huh! Never, in your WILDEST DREAM.! It’s DELICATE baka lalo pa po bumagal. Natawag nga po ako sa hotline nyo palaging busy, nakakapagod lang umasa.
Oh that’s HOW YOU GET THE GIRL? Break na po sila, walang forever.!
Band Paramore recently had a concert in the country and PLDT did not miss the chance to ride with the hype

And lastly, are you a Kapamilya? Well, PLDT also managed to insert ABS-CBN related things in one tweet.
