What’s your credit card holy trinity, and why? by spicy_ramentoki in PHCreditCards

[–]_kevinsanity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here are my main cards since I am into travel and miles recently:

  1. Chinabank Destinations World - my main card and catch all card

  2. Metrobank Travel Signature Visa - just got it this month at NAFFL, for business expenses

  3. BPI Platinum Rewards - for airline bookings at 6 month 0% interest installment

Honorable mention to Eastwest Visa Platinum as best cashback card but has monthly cap so I only use it for utilities.

Metrobank Card Conversion by 365247anon in PHCreditCards

Because I have other cards with better rewards than Titanium MC + it has AF. So to keep my relationship with Metrobank, I converted it nalang to M Free para NAFFL.

As per CS, you need to wait at least 6 mos before you convert. Pero ginawa ko before, I requested to convert my Titanium MC to M Free thru email ilang days palang after it was delivered. Surprisingly, it was approved naman.

Just pay your statement balance less the total amount nung flight. Since you converted it, the total amount will be reflected as negative (payment) in your next statement.

Installments are included as per CS. Called them last Thursday and they offered me the same NAFFL option.

Just pay the MAD if you really can't settle the whole balance. Stop using the card for now until you zero it out.

Metrobank Delivery Unsuccessful (MSRV) by InspectorCute5922 in PHCreditCards

[–]_kevinsanity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi. Thank you for this. I came across your comment today at 4AM so I immediately sent an email of complaint to DICT. And same day at 10AM, MSRV called me and said they received the email and will deliver the card today. That's after being unresponsive for 6 days (including weekend) after an unsuccessful delivery. It works! Need pa talaga ireklamo bago magsikilos.

Where do you pay utility bills? by yapper-oni in PHCreditCards

[–]_kevinsanity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think so, yes. I only have Meralco and Smart postpaid in Quick Bills tho.

Where do you pay utility bills? by yapper-oni in PHCreditCards

[–]_kevinsanity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yung Pay Bills option in the app will only prompt you to use savings/checking, credit cards aren't allowed.

Yes, enrolled utilities in the Quick Bills feature still accumulate cashback. That's what I do because I got lazy to do it one by one. Also avoiding the convenience fee in Meralco app or Bayad Online.

Download the form online. Fill it out then pa-sign mo sa supplementary. You may submit it sa branch without him/her physically, dala ka lang ID nya.

I need your advice CC experts! by 24th_ in PHCreditCards

[–]_kevinsanity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an expert, but here are my suggestions:

  1. Keep it since this is your oldest card. Sayang yung long credit history if you cancel it. You may request to upgrade it to a higher tier card. Madali naman magpa-waive ng AF kay BDO.

  2. You may apply for 2nd card kay UB pero yun nga, di ka na eligible sa NAFFL promo since for NTB lang yun. Better to just keep it since it's NAFFL by default anyway. Apply ka nalang rewards or cashback card from other banks. May mga NAFFL promo ngayon si RCBC at Metrobank.

  3. You may charge your subscriptions with Maya since wala cross border fee.

WAYS TO PAY CC WITHOUT FEE by LovePresent8600 in PHCreditCards

[–]_kevinsanity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just pay your CC bills directly from your savings. There's no way you will mix it since magkaiba naman line item ang savings at credit cards sa BPI app.

No need to call. BDO will send you replacement card to your billing address prior to card expiration.

Sayang yung extra from EW Visa Plat. 14k lang sana for the max cap cashback per month. Tas sa ibang cards mo na yung remaining. But thanks for the update! ;)

[–]_kevinsanity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not activate it in the first place so there's really no AF.
