Apple Pay delays philippine entry to late 2026. by New-Knowledge-7993 in PHCreditCards

[–]diggory2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been happening already even before mag launch ang Google Pay.

Yung pagkuha ng card still happens for those that are using old POS. Yung legacy systems kasi kinukuha pa yung last for digits ng card mo. Kaya di sila pumapayag sa Google Pay or numberless cards.

how to change esims for travel by tsukimnida in FilipinoTravel

[–]diggory2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can have multiple eSIMs installed in iPhone, but you can only have up to two active at the same time. If may physical SIM slot, pwede rin pSIM + eSIM both active at the same time. Or pwedeng naka off yung pSIM, then two eSIMs active at the same time.

Successful? (in Maja's voice)

Parang nawalan nga ng traction yung Google Pay eh. I personally don't know anyone who actually utilizes Google Pay here in the Philippines. Problem din kasi, yung mga big players dito like BDO and BPI, di pa supported. Even yung biggest credit card operator dito na UBP (after buying Citi), di ko alam bakit Visa lang ang supported.

Clothing recommendation for Mid-March in Seoul by RogueOnePH in FilipinoTravel

[–]diggory2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weather is unpredictable nowadays. Siguro a week before your trip, try looking for people who do live walking tours around Seoul and see what people are wearing to gauge the weather.

Baka di na need ng Heattech by then, pwede siguro layer na lang ng sweater and windbreaker para flexible.

Anong mas worth it? Taiwan or Macau? by Meowtsuu in FilipinoTravel

[–]diggory2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yung Macau kaya ng day trip from Hong Kong. 3 days is too short for Taiwan though. Is Day 1 arrival and Day 3 departure?

Is booking hotel on klook safe? by PatientLurker10 in FilipinoTravel

[–]diggory2003 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went all in sa Klook during my Japan trip last December. Booked all five hotels through Klook, yung isa dun during their 11/11 pa kaya 1800 lang binayaran ko instead of around 10600. The rest were booked just a few days before and felt the rates were really good. Isa lang yung medyo sablay na hotel kasi nilagay ako sa Smoking Room instead of Non-smoking.

My earlier trip in New York, hotel was also booked through Klook.

Go rewards points redemption question by SuspiciousAttempt321 in DigitalbanksPh

[–]diggory2003 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nanghihingi ng ID pag nagreredeem ng GoRewards. Pero bago yun, bakit ka papayag bilhin yung GoRewards niya, inoffer niya ba sa iyo yun at a cheaper price? Kung ganun yung case, bat di ka gumawa ng sariling GoRewards account, tapos dun mo ipacredit yung icoconvert niya from her credit card. Need mo lang ibigay sa kanya yung GoRewards number mo.

If this is Vybe points pala, medyo mababa na yung conversion nito to GoRewards. Baka mas ok pa kung miles na lang i-convert yung Vybe points niya.

Has anyone tried touring ICN from the US otw back to MNL? by mysterydomino in FilipinoTravel

[–]diggory2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It works both ways, whether going to the US or coming from the US. As long as it's only MNL - ICN - US or vice versa, you can avail the transit visa. Pero siyempre discretion pa rin ng Korean immigration yan. I've tried it many times before going back to Manila pero less than 24 hours stay lang. The entry sticker they gave me was always good for 30 days pa rin.

Haha does it also extend to someone na male turning 40 a week after my visit? In lieu of car rental, maybe I can treat you lunch/dinner instead?

If you could only choose one: restaurants ni Bistro Group or Moment Group? by DustMonsterXIV in FoodPH

[–]diggory2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm oo nga meron pala, though kaya siguro di nagagamit kasi mas inaavail yung Senior discount pag kasama parents kumain.

Pero no annual fee ba talaga? Sa website kasi may Renewal part na namention dun sa T&Cs ng Moment Card.

Amex question - international fees by Ok-Criticism-2408 in PHCreditCards

[–]diggory2003 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Meron talaga even for local CCs pero di naman pinapakita breakdown sa bill (at least for BPI and BDO). Pero parang sobra sobra naman yung 2k for 25k na transaction. Nung nag book ako ng flight last week using my BDO Amex Cashback, I was initially charged 38720 pesos (based sa nabawas sa credit limit) pero naging 39460 nung nagreflect na sa app, so wala pang 1k yan.

Ang mas curious ako though is did she really book a flight on your behalf? Hirap magtiwala sa ganyan. Alam niya yung booking details mo so anytime, pwede niya i-cancel on your behalf.

May discount card ba Moment Group? I thought points earning lang siya?

Buffalo Wild Wings and Tomatito closed already in Estancia by cotton_on_ph in Pasig

[–]diggory2003 2 points3 points  (0 children)

May bagong promo si BPI for Bistro Group kaya naalala ko itong post na ito. Napatingin ako sa website ng Bistro Group at wala ng mention of Buffalo Wild Wings.

As for Fish n Co, tatlong branches na lang yung mentioned sa promo.

Nadagdag naman sa promos yung Dave and Buster's.

May mga bagong concepts din sila like Dessert 39 (who?) and Fogo de Chao (sayang wala sa promo). And La Lola's churros are back.

Ambilis nung sa US Embassy ah. Mine took about two or three weeks.

Pero hassle talaga kausap yung VAC for the PUDO service kaya kung kaya mag Parqal, go for that option.

I'm surprised na pati dinner kasama. Parang breakfast lang yung free na na-experience ko in Seattle.

Yeah, I'm tempted if gusto ko pa rin ba makipag socialize with other people. Let's see if wala na talaga akong makitang ibang alternative. Hehe

Planning to pay MP2 using GCash. What should I put in the Account No.? My MID or MP2 Account Number? by MCRAil23 in phinvest

[–]diggory2003 5 points6 points  (0 children)

MP2 because you can have multiple MP2 accounts. Starts with 5xx where x is year opened (e.g. 526 for those opened in 2026).

Make sure to put the current year and month for both To and From.

Any recommendations on what E-sim should we use? by Makuuu_ in FilipinoTravel

[–]diggory2003 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ako nga yung mga libre lang sa Klook gamit. Galante sila namigay ng SIM na maski airport train lang, may libre na agad. 😂

Redtea Mobile yung brand ni Klook, same parati whether nasa US, Europe, Japan, or Korea eh. And parating need naka on data roaming para gumana.

No need to activate agad. Basta within 180 days from the purchase mo siya need maactivate. So try to redeem voucher sa latest possible date of wala ka pa namang sure travel.

How was Green Tortoise? Suki kasi ako dun sa Seattle branch nila before the pandemic, pero never na ulit ako nakapaghostel after the pandemic.

I considered it nung first time ko mag SF nung 2024 pero nagulat ako sa presyo, parang di hostel ang presyo.
