What is this?

From the memories of a child who grew up in Davao, Jinggol is born. This section of DavaoBase will feature stories about the city’s past, from the eyes of a writer undergoing second childhood. Keep posted for nostalgic moments and experiences in hometown Davao City.

Who Am I?

Ako si Jinggol. I was once a kid, just like everyone else. My entire childhood was played out within the confines of Davao City. Everything that I learned, enjoyed and experienced was tied up with Davao City's own history. Years after, I am ready to share my memories to the world.

Low Cost Call Advantage for Companies

Several companies these days have been so concerned about keeping their customers happy and contented. And why not? With stiff competition and rising costs, customers are now more discerning and are always looking for the best deals available.

0844One effective way to ensure that customers stay with you for a long time is providing them with quality and reliable customer service. Many companies have already opted to use 0844 Numbers, a prefix that allows callers to pay local rates. Other similar numbers are 0800, 0871 and 0845.

When callers learn that the calls are cheap, they become more interested with the company and the services they offer, as they become more confident that they can get cheap, reliable customer service from the company.

Security Services for Businesses

Establishing a Good Credit Score

Not using your credit card to avoid debt or finance charges may not be the best way to establish a good credit score. To make your credit card establish credit favorably, it is important that you show how well you manage finances — not how well you avoid the use of significant financial tools.

credit scoreWhen deciding to get a credit card, you need to evaluate the benefits that you can gain from getting one and from getting it from a particular bank or company. Many offer low or even zero interest rates and waived annual fees. You may avail of these offers to help you establish a good credit score or to rebuild bad credit.

A good credit score allows you several loan and finance options when you need to start a business or build a new home for your growing family. It is best to start working for a favorable credit score early to ensure that you don’t encounter problems when you need funding. The process is not really complex, but it needs a bit of careful thought and thorough planning.
