Paypal - The Good and the Bad News

It’s confirmed. News came out that withdrawal from Paypal account to Philippine Bank Accounts is now accepted. Let me tell you, i have a Bad news and good news for you.
First the good news. Withdrawing funds from Paypal to your bank accounts in the Philippines will be completed after 5-7 business days. Take note *business days*. The cost of transaction is FREE for Php7,000.00 or more and it will only cost you Php50.00 if your withdrawal is Php6,000.00 or less. See the convenience now? And saving too! No need to enroll for a debit card! Not anymore.
The bad news. I just made a withdrawal 4 days ago to my Union Bank’s account. Of course i was charged $5.00 for that transaction. Imagine just 2 days after the announcement!
If you want to try, just log-in to your Paypal account now!
Note: See OFFICIAL PayPal Bank Codes (withdraw to Philippine banks).

Anyway you can use it to other transactions online Ronnie. I remember we used to talk about it 2 days ago. :grin:

AMBO reply on January 28, 2008:
Verified account ka naman na yata Ronnie. So no need to use the eon since you are using your credit card. You can use your bank account na to withdraw from paypal.

Ronnie kung verified account naman na ang paypal mo, wag mo ng ituloy yang eon mo haha. all you need to do is to apply your bank account sa kanila.

3rd place ka na ka buraot. nag iisip na nga ako ng premyo sa mananalong top commentator of the month eh. hehe. Oo nga $5 is around 250 din yun. aba super busog ka na dun sa Jolibee! :mrgreen:
[Reply]
Just wait till its over P7000 so you don’t get charged. But if you do need the money, P50 is not bad - but definitely not $5 buraot.

omg, nagpakahirap pa naman akong mag apply ng EON tapos ganyan din pala! btw, I’m having problems with my EON. yhree weeks na di pa active yung account. I’ll blog (rant) about it.

AMBO reply on January 28, 2008:
Did you try to contact their hotline dadimon? In my case inaraw araw ko ang customer service nila hanggang maactivate account ko. Anyways, much better if you just use your bank account for paypal. If you have credit card, pwede mo ng gamitin un to get a verified account. if not, just wait your eon card activated.

iRonnie (37 comments.) reply on January 28, 2008:
ambo ano number ng customer service nila? i was calling 84-186 pero not yet in service sinasabi. i called 892-0111 kaso naca cut naman ang line. is this a reflection of their customer service? :neutral:

wow ayos buti na lang di pa ko naka EON lol mabuti nga ba yun? parang nabasa ko somewhere kelangan pa din ng debit/credit cards e. totoo ba yon? tamad na ko magbasa e :razz:
[Reply]
AMBO reply on January 28, 2008:
Yes Joyce. Try to log in then choose bank account. Yung me arrow sa taas. sa ibaba kasi yung debit/credit card. Lipat mo na yang pera mo at baka mabiktima ka pa ng scam sa paypal. Si Thess muntik na jan. Be careful.
If you have a credit card pwede naman yan. If not, eon card ka na lang. Para makawithdraw ka, u need to be verified muna by using your eon card.

AMBO reply on January 29, 2008:
Kotsengkuba at least kapatid wala ng charge na malaki once na verified na ang account mo. Gagamitin mo lang ung debit/credit just to verify your account. malaking katipiran yun sa mga taga Pinas. :wink:
[Reply]
by the way, what’s an EON card?

AMBO reply on January 29, 2008:
Eon card from Union Bank yan kapatid. It’s a debit card. :wink:
[Reply]
Ambo,
kahapon ko pa nabasa tong post mo… I just checked today and it’s true, the charge is $5. I think for small earnings from blogging, this is a high rate. If perhaps you’re withdrawing some $500, I think it’s just fine but below $50, the charge is exorbitant.

Yes Jessie. That’s why bloggers are so happy to hear that bank account in the Philippines is now accepted by paypal. Wala ng malaking charges except for the Php50.00 if you withdraw 6,999 or less. Or depends on your bank’s policy if they still collect other fees from your transaction. But i think maliit lang yun kesa sa $5.00.
The $5.00 is charged if you use debit/credit for withdrawal.
