BPI Depositors' Thread

[illumina]

Got the BPI iPhone app! Finally, they released it na, after their Java applet for feature phones. I can now reload my E-Pass (and pay bills of course) on the iPhone anywhere instead of having to use a PC. That for me is way better than fast food promos.

guys, *** BPI direct savings account, anu ba yung style ng kanilang ATM? same design din ba sa BPI & BPI family atm? thanks

[johnplmc]

Hi rhaps00,

Yup they are the same. Blue color ATM card.

[rhaps00]

ay ok. so nag enroll ako sa bpi direct last night. if hindi ako mag reply (coz the email instruct to process my application i should reply within 10 days) ok lang ba yun? i thought kasi ibang design sya. thanks johnplmc.

[kitchi_vain]

i totally agree with it.. corny ng chimes segment nila mas okay pa yung card thing.. yung "are you happy with my service"

nangongolekta ka ng cards? basis mo lang ata ang design?

Nawawala ang "preferred client" status? Nawala ko na kasi yung letter ko. 2007 pa yon. Though di ko naman napakinabangan yung pagiging preferred client. But I just need to know if there's a way to verify (though I'm planning to ask them when I visit Manila next year)

rhaps, the best way is to call express phone 89-100 and give the reference number to the agent that would assist you.

About sa Design I don't know if you have applied for the Savings or the new ePrepaid Master Card, both has different appearance/design.

Kolmogorov, Try to visit your branch of account. Kung saan ka unang nag open nung Account mo, and ask the Branch Manager (BM) kung ano na ang pedeng remedy or action plan para maging preferred ka ulit?

I would like to ask if you still maintain your funds on that branch maski nawala ka ng matagal? As long as you have maintained your Average Daily Balance of PHP250,000.00 ever since, I would say that you're still being tagged as 'Preferred Client'. But of course, you may ask about it when you visit again to your home branch.

well dont get me wrong, in such a way...i want a new card sa bpi with new look. although secondary concern ko lang yun. i was a bit eager to open kasi nga 1.25% yung interest nya unlike sa regular savings acct ko. i have 2 accts na, yung maxi saver & savings acct at same look sila, i need to write at the back pa to identify them.. unfortunately, medyo busy pa ako ngayon to open for another acct so i opt not to continue my application.

[bebeboy]

yung sa bagon promo ng BPI..talaga bang credit card na lang ang pwede..di na pde yung mga EPS purchases..sayang naman...

sabagay yan din ang napansin ko at mas maganda nga kung magkaiba yung card. yung 2 ATM cards ko na linked sa savings at checking na parehong sa regular BPI is, parehong-pareho.

Anyway I just carry one card lang around kahit 3 ang bank accounts ko sa kanila.

Yung BPI direct at BPI regular na ATM card, kaunting kaunti ang difference sa itsura. May maliit na "direct" sa ilalim ng BPI letters sa harap. Sa likod rin nakalagay yung "BPI direct savings bank". Pero sa malayo o isang tingin hindi obvious ang difference.

aling bagong promo yun?

[freelancer_babe]

tungkol sa chimes...

galing ako sa BPI kanina para magdeposit.

ang daya ng guard - bago ako lumabas, lumapit sya sa chimes tapos sya ang nagpatunog nito.

[KuyaDanny]

Baka may commission yung guard.

[bluecorner13]

haha.. pauso naman kasi BPI eh..

mas ok pa din yung bilog na chips.. mas mabibilang pa nila kung ilan ang satisfied at hindi satisfied na depositor nila..

[deelaurente]

^ They only seem to give out those chips when there are not too many clients - pretty self-serving

[rhaps00]

ive noticed lang. nagbibigay ba ang BPI ng xmas gift sa kanilang depositor? say calendar...ballpen or umbrella? nagdeposit kasi ako last week of december, walang man lang binigay. preferred client ako pero ni isa, wala pa akong nareceived na xmas gift sa kanila for almost 5 years as a depositor.

sa inyo, may binigay ba? or dapat talaga humingi?

Sakin may binigay ang branch ko na calendar at black backpack... preferred client din ako for almost 3 years na...

[KuyaDanny]

I got a big (golf) payong when I visited the branch before Christmas. I am also a preferred client.

[rhaps00]

ay ganun. daya nila. yung BDO, wala din, malaki naman yung savings ko sa kanila. at kahit before na sa RCBC lahat ng savings ko, wala din. hahaha. next week, pupunta ako ulit sa BPI, tingnan nga natin.
