Dipole moment of PCl2F3 is non zero while dipole moment of PCl3F2 is zero why?

According to bent rule more electronegative atom or group attached those orbital have minimum S- character. There is in Trigonal bipiramidal (TBP) Geometry we known that axial orbital hare no S- character so F atom attached with axial positions only. Hence PCl3F2 has zero dipole moment.
