Beware: LYNK ASIA OUTSOURCING CORPORATION
« on: November 11, 2011, 10:30:15 am »
To the people of Olongapo and Subic pls. beware of LYNK ASIA OUTSOURCING CORPORATION. It’s the worst call center company in the planet. For those who are desperate to have a job, don’t fall on their traps. If you want to work in a call center, there’s a lot of legitimate company in Clark and Manila.
I’ve worked at NCO for several years, just only last month when I decided to stay here in Olongapo to find a call center job.  Anyway, Lynk Asia is an outbound call center that promotes/endorses vacation packages like Wyndham and Global Exchange Vacation Club (GEVC). Clients are based in Australia and US. To cut the story short, their modus operandi is to hire call center agents who will undergo training for 2 wks. Even if you have 10 years of call center experience, it’s a must to undergo their training. You will have 100 pesos per day during your training period, without transportation and meals. However, they will extend your training up to a month. Afterwards, the account will be closed for unknown reasons and all the trainees for that account will be fired right away. Just like what happened to us. Then they will hire another set of call center agents to do the job for them with only 100 pesos per day. What a waste of time, effort and money! Moreover, the GEVC vacation package is a SCAM....there are many complaints from US clients about this vacation thing. If you don’t believe on this you can Google it and find out the real story behind GEVC. So guys, this is just a reminder, think twice before submitting your resume to Lynk Asia.

I never imagine a person could be so stupid enough to find a blame for his failure... I wonder if i would pity him, or laugh at him. FYI, whoever you are, these people knows better on what this company had achieved. Who gives a SHIT with a small fry like you, who quits for 2 days after calling OUTBOUND.

we know who you are, you only worked for 2 days and no one fires you! you quit because you cant handle outbound calls.
you're from NCO?you didnt worked there for several years! we've checked your background,you only worked there for a year! liar!
 -you just dont know what's the consequence of your actions.
paano mo nasabi na scam ang account if 2 days ka pa lang sa company?and alam mo ba meaning ng outsourcing? stupid gay! bitter ka lang kasi hindi mo kaya sa outbound account,marami pa lang company sa clark and manila,bakit pilit mong sinisiksik sarili mo sa lynkasia? tawag ka pa ng tawag para lang sabihin na nag resign ka na sa nco.and lahat  ng call center ay may trainings kahit saang lupalop ka pa galing. so gusto mo pala hindi ka na mag a =undergo training,wow kaya pala 2 days ka pa lang nag quit ka na kasi training pa lang hindi mo na kaya,bitter!

ang bobo mo naman kung ilegal ang kumpanya hindi tatagal ng 2 years sa SBMA yun,at sana hindi sila bibigyan ng permit to operate,and sana walang mga benefits,pero for your info. na rin kumpleto sa benefits ang mga employee ng lynk asia.

good luck na lang sayo,good luck na lang sa mangyayari sa career mo.
you cant bring us down,God Bless na lang sa mga taong katulad mo-QUITTER & BITTER!

no offence TS but i think all companies would really require you to train first regardless kahit na 10 years ka na sa ibang company since not all call center companies work for the same outsourcing companies, not even the same company with different location/branch has the same accounts, for an example: convergys makati may handles citibank, atnt account, travel accounts while the same company of convergys at commonwealth may handle gaming accounts, Xbox, Hsbc collections and cable. no pun intended

and besides training is the best part in a call center job you get to fool around >_<
and another analogy is that when you are in training you aren't actually doing the job itself so it means di ka pa napapakinabangan ng company hanggat wala ka pa sa operation floor itself, therefore its the company's loss the longer you stay in training and not in the ops. and besides i assume that you have signed a contract? before the contract signing you should have been briefed regarding their 100/day on training thingy (w/c i think is cheap but then again you signed up for w/c means you agreed) you could have easily declined the offer if you hated it that much

again no pun intended peace!

I'm not a call center agent or something please enlighten us

1. sabi ni TS training

kung training yung pinakita ni taruc sa motorcycle diaries na nasa room sila at wala pa silang kausap therefore lugi ang company ng 3000 pesos that month therefore mali si TS at bitter lang sya

2. kung may nakausap na syang outbound calls na taga-US at Aussie therefore lugi sya at tama ang hinaing nya

3. mali yung logic madaming complaints yung company BPO ba o yung cater nung BPO is just a insitution for inquires, online selling, customer service or techincal services di porket madami reklamo e kasalanan or scam yung BPO but yung mismong nag-commission sa company dapat ang may kasalanan

4. Closing of accounts madaming reason bakit close yung accounts ng isang BPO even my 3 cousing working in a Legit BPO sinasabi na may nag-close ng account either may problema dun sa client company, mahina ang sales, na pirate yung mga workers nila, or pina-cancel nun client company at lumipat sa iba etc..

5. may tama din yung alleged scammer may cousin ako na ilan years nadin syang Call center agent nag-inquire sya sa teletech tanggap sya kaso di sya pumirma ng contract dahil mababa yung salary nya back to zero sya

6.To TS  May association ang mga Call center companies you can send us some copies to prove that this company was  registered to that association  if they are legit or  a major scammer at least may evidence unlike ngayon ang details mo di complete di namin alam ang kung sino nagsasabi ng totoo at wala kaming time puntahan yung lugar
 
it's not that worst TS kase sumasahod kapa ng 100 a day a worst call center for me you won't get anything even a penny

I would like to mention this, since salary and compensations is the main reason why this topic was created.

In our Company, sa LPET palang (language training) meron kanang 200-300 per day compensation. If mag start kana for product training of course naka perma kana nang contract, that will be the start of your Salary (per account, per contract).

So TS if you are for product training, I think lugi nga yang 100 per day. Sa amin nga libreng Language Training 200-300 per day (two weeks yan depende kung maka pasa ka from LPET 1 to LPET 2 bago ka mag CST) ikaw pa binayaran.

May ibang company nga, that I personally know, mag undergo ka nang Language Training merong bayad (2,500-3,000) di pa yan sure kung matanggap ka.

magkaiba kasi rate sa manila at sa province. sa pagkakaalam ko sa NCO 500 per day sa kanila during training.

meron din mga company dito na full na yung pasahod kahit sa training pa lang, like ePLDT, 1k/day

gaya rin ng sabi ko before, meron din company dito sa manila na 100 pesos training allowance + free meal, lugi yung ganito. mababa masyado.

Anong classeng training yan? Product Training?

Kasi sa amin bago ka maka product training naka perma kana nang contract, so meaning complete na sahod mo just like regular employee!

for some reasons I agree na kahit na gaano ka pa katagal sa BPO Industry you need to undergo in training. After I decided to join this company I was really surprise how the owner of Lynkasia handle people. I decided to work here in Olongapo so I can take care of my younger siblings kaya kahit na hindi ganon kalaki ang allowance ay sinubukan ko. Kahit saang BPO Company naman ay merong strict na boss. Paano mo masasabing professional ang President-Operating Manager ng Company kung mumurahin ka sa harap ng co-trainee mo. Alam ko sa sarili ko na nagkamali ako sa pagqualify, handa at willing akong itama yun pero yung MURAHIN ka! At ipagdukdukan sayo na napakatanga mo dahil sa pagkakamali yon yun ung nakakababa ng ego. I adore Ms. Rose for being so kind and friendly I think she was the Sec. in that company. Minura ka na nga binantaan ka pa na "wag na wag ko ng makikita yung pagmumukha mo sa company ko!" those words na napakasakit. Hindi ko naman pinagpipilitan ung sarili ko sa company nyo ang sa akin lang marunong sana kayong rumespeto ng tao. I was about to quit by that time kasi first time pa lang muntik na ihagis ng taong yun ung upuan sa sobrang galit dahil sa pagkakamali ng pagbasa ng script at mali maling pagqualify. Naaawa ako sa mga co-trainees ko nanduon pa. Kung paano mo sabihin na umuwi kana kung puro mali ka sa mga trainee mo. You're so harsh and mean to your people kahit ganun pa man yung pinakita mo sa akin na attitude at sinasabi mong kredibilidad ng Company nyo ay umalis ako ng may respeto kahit na walang respeto sa tao ang may ari ng Company na yun. Hindi kailangang MURAHIN at i-DOWN mo yung tao kung nagkakamali kasi mas lalo mo lang pinapamukha sa kanila sa hanggang dyan ka lang. I won't seek for revenge for this pero I've learned a lesson na WAG NA WAG NG MAG APPLY SA LYNKASIA OUTSOURCING  CORPORATION. KUNG GUSTO NYO MAG APPLY ANYWAY KAYO NAMAN ANG MAGDEDECIDE NYAN BUT I TRIED TO OPEN YOUR EYES IN REALITY OF THAT COMPANY. God Bless you too Mr. Tan.

after 2 years ngayon ko lang masasagot ulit ito. English training and product with NCO dati 500/day... wala na sila ngayon, sumalangit nawa  ;D

as for ePLDT/SPI english and product full salary na makukuha ng pumasa sa application pa lang, but no benifits. makukuha lang ang benifits upon regularization. pero meron silang mga "near passing applicants" na pinagbibigyan nila sa magtrain for 2 weeks with 500/day allowance (that was then di ko na alam ngayon). after 2 weeks Job Interview ulit, kung papasa full salary. kung hindi, bye bye na.

may ibang kumpanya naman na training ka pa lang full benefit and full salary. tapos upon regularization salary increase.

====
so iba iba ang BPO industry.  sa case ni TS 100 per day ang training. as i have said meron din dito nyan noon sa manila, hindi ko lang alam kung buhay pa sila  ;D

pero hindi rin naman tama na mura-murahin ka kung nagkamali ka, that's not professional. buhay pa rin ba sila at di pa nagbabago after 2 years?

Yup buhay pa sila.. SANA nabasa ko ito before para di na ko tumuloy at di ko na naexperience yun. Yup may mga BPO Company na nagbibigay ng benefits either your a trainee or an employee. Panu ba mag pm dito super sensitive daw yung nagyari sa akin as I ask for assistance in DOLE.

I have been working with this company. and I am proud to say one of the Pioneers. It is very unfortunate to hear this kind of post against the company.
These people might have experienced nothing more than just training most likely less than 10 days. I would say this was not even compare to what we have for the company. Yes, there will be times, I know it is not an excuse, that our boss gets furious, but this person will never say such harsh things if he was not PROVOKED.

"ereca" for example called just two days, made an alliance to all trainees and urge them to not to continue, which the 3rd day left the company with no agents calling. We the management, even the Boss and the owners called for one week, 6 of us, just to make the account work, from then, it is still active and receiving production and having agents signed up.

 ::redalert

So far, I am happy with the company. And still looking for a long term relationship with them.
