PLX LoadXtreme Advisory

Here is the latest PLX LoadXtreme Advisory

Loading Services Temporarily Suspended
Announcements (11/23/2007)

We are currently suspending our prepaid loading services for all Over-the-Air (OTA) and electronic pins (e-pins) starting today, 23 November 2007 until 1st week of December 2007.

As much as we would like to have a seamless transition to a better and stable service, it is impossible to have continuous daily operations, including prepaid product loading. We are again asking for your understanding and acceptance for this situation. All our active Dealers and Retailers will receive sms-broadcast once our loading service is available.

We are currently addressing our problem on stability by proposing and hopefully gaining the acceptance of an investor who will obviously help us financially. At the same time, we are finalizing our agreement with our Master Dealers on strengthening our traditional marketing of products to keep the momentum up after resuming services.

Rest assured that we, Portal Innovations Corporation, are still true to our Mission of empowering the underprivileged.

We hope you will be with us through these tough times.

Thank You.

Always check the Disclaimer found on the bottom of this page.

Take a break, have some laugh :d

A NEW CHAIRMAN

Bill Gates organized an enormous session to recruit a new Chairman for Microsoft Europe.

5000 candidates assembled in a large room. One candidate is MARIO DIMACULANGAN.


Bill Gates: Thank you for coming. Those who do not know JAVA may leave.

2000 people leave the room.


MARIO says to himself, 'I do not know JAVA but I have nothing to lose if I stay. I'll give it a try'

Bill Gates: Candidates who never had experience of managing more than 100 people may leave.

2000 people leave the room.

Mario says to himself ' I never managed anybody by myself but I have nothing to lose if I stay. What can happen to me?' So he stays.

Bill Gates: Candidates who do not have management diplomas may leave.

500 people leave the room.

Mario says to himself, 'I left school at 15 but what have I got to lose?' So he stays in the room.

Lastly, Bill Gates asked the candidates who do not speak Serbo - Croat to leave.

498 people leave the room.

Mario says to himself, ' I do not speak one word of Serbo - Croat but what do I have to lose?'

So he stays and finds himself with one other candidate.

Everyone else has gone.

Bill Gates joined them and said 'Apparently you are the only two candidates who speak Serbo - Croat, so I'd now like to hear you have a conversation together in that language.'

Calmly, Mario turns to the other candidate and says `unsa ma na, dong'

The other candidate answers 'ambot, bay..'

LoadXtreme Update: SMS Notification on Online Transactions Removed?

My mobile phone number is registered at my LoadXtreme account. Since I have been a LoadXtreme dealer, I received SMS notification for all LoadXtreme online transactions that are conducted on my account.

For almost a week now, I noticed that the SMS notifications for all my online transactions except for the Reload Request had stopped coming. I know this because I seldom transact using my mobile phone.

If it is another policy change for LoadXtreme, I hope they will take the time to inform their dealers and retailers.

LoadXtreme Guaranteed Retail Override (GRO) Update

When I joined as LoadXtreme dealers, GRO earnings are reflected real time. When I say real time, earnings from my own retail transactions and that of my retailers are automatically reflected and can be viewed on my online account.

The automatic update has served me well as it keeps me updated on who among the retailers are performing well. I feel somehow more secure that my GRO earnings are really credited into my account. About 3 weeks ago, LoadXtreme decided to implement a weekly account update on GRO earnings of dealers.

When I contacted customer support just a few days after the implementation, the customer support informed me that GRO earnings for the week until Monday will be credited on Wednesdays. My second inquiry as to when GRO earnings will be credited was answered with like "We will inform you when GRO earnings will be implemented because the system is still being tested to be sure that correct GRO earnings will credited." I was waiting for the notice and even checked the main website yet no notice was dispatched.

Since it is Thursday today, I decided to check. GRO earnings were credited. No notice was given, again.

PLX LoadXtreme Update: Minimum Maintaining Balance

Although I dispose or retail electronic loads, I seldom use my mobile phone since I prefer to use the online loading facility. Last Oct. 24, I needed to use my mobile phone for international messaging so naturally, I turn to my loading account. Unfortunately, I received a message saying that I am below the maintaining balance of Php500.00 for dealers.

Before the said event, LoadXtreme services was unaccessible for about 2 days. I presume the 2 days were used to update LoadXtreme's system to accommodate the recent policy changes. This is my own presumption since I am aware how it is to implement new changes on an existing system. Is my presumption true? Those who have limited or no knowledge at all regarding technical issues, will they understand? Can't LoadXtreme create a redundant system where such changes can be tested such that there will be no downtime on their services?

Well, that's an unannounced policy change again on the part of LoadXtreme. I wonder how many policy changes are they going to implement in the next days.

Full advisory for maintaining balance below. I have not fully digested the contents but I know that the charges applied - Php5.00 for retailers and Php25.00 for dealers - per calenday day that the account is below the maintaining balance is considered exorbitant. Even banks do not charge that much.

NEW POLICY ON MINIMUM MAINTAINING LOAD WALLET BALANCE(10/28/2007)

To our valued Retailers and Dealers:

Please be advised that starting immediately, the following amount of maintaining balance in your LoadXtreme Load Wallet should be observed to continue availing of our services:

• Retailers – P100

• Dealers – P500

Within thirty (30) calendar days from the date of registration in LoadXtreme, new or prospective Dealers and Retailers will be restricted from dispensing prepaid products against their load wallet when their balances fall below P500 and P100 respectively.

After the 30-day period, Dealers and Retailers shall be allowed to fully use their load wallet balances even when they fall below the minimum maintaining balance requirement. However, a corresponding fee of P5 (for Retailers) and P25 (for Dealers) shall be charged for every calendar day that the load wallet balance is below the required minimum. Should an account reaches zero (0.00) balance, the system will deactivate the said account in the LoadXtreme database after thirty (30) calendar days.

Dealers and Retailers who registered on or before October 26, 2007 and have load wallet balance falling below the required minimum maintaining balance shall be restricted to fully use their load wallet balance until November 5, 2007. After the said date, their balances may be fully accessed and consumed subject to the minimum maintaining balance policy as stated above. This is in view of improving our services to better serve you and our clients.

Please watch out for further announcements.

LoadXtreme Retailer Kit Free P30 Load Replaced

In line with Portal Innovation Company's (LoadXtreme) continous improvement providing quality service to its members, the original Free Php30.00 for every retailer kit is being replaced.

A copy of the announcement posted on LoadXtreme's website is posted below for reference.

To add more value and long term benefits to Dealers and Retailers, we would like to announce that effective October 1, 2007, all FREE 30 PLX loads contained in every unregistered Retailer kit shall be removed and will be replaced by Merchant Tie-up Discounts.

It should be taken into consideration that the FREE 30 PLX loads that are automatically loaded each time a Retailer account is registered, is originally intended to let the new Retailers test the system with regards to capability to dispense loads. And since LoadXtreme is already in its third year (since October 2004) and Portal has been providing universal loads for more than four years already, the original purpose of the FREE load has already been met. LoadXtreme has reached its maturity and its technology has shown its reliability when it comes to dispensing loads.

As a replacement to the FREE loads, Marketing is already finalizing the list of Merchant tie-ups that would entitle each card-carrying member to outright discounts from participating products and services.

The merchant tie-ups would provide long term benefits to LoadXtreme members as discounts far outweigh the one-time benefit brought by the FREE 30 PLX test load.
