Nightmare at BDO (Banco De Oro) Greenhills Virra Mall

Just a warning to you all, be wary of the BDO ATM in Greenhills. My bro tried to use the ATM yesterday and in one shot, the machine confiscated his Credit Card. We went into the bank to tell the personnel and after presenting his Driver's License she proceeded to say that he needed a 2nd Id. So let's get this straight, here are the facts:

  • We reported the card taken,
  • The guard even saw us,
  • He presented his Driver's License with a Picture and all of the required information,
  • And their policy was to ask for a 2nd ID?
  • Stupid.

This is much like their policy in the Philippines that you need to sign the back of your credit card. So basically it doesn't matter who you are, as long you have something scribbled on the back of the card you're good. It doesn't matter if you have the ID that matches the information on the card, it is their policies.

I'm beginning to think that Philippines Policies like these are simply retarded, but if you want to argue go ahead I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, but mind you, I will go at it with you. ;)

Ya you are right the Phillippines is riddled with idiots trying to live and act like Americans but cant THINK like them...LOL

Its amazing that anyone in that country has ever gotten rich, as they come up with the stupidest systems and ideas and rules for running business.... I wonder how they ever get anything useful accomplished.

ha ha Yeah and I bet you the only ones who would argue with us would be the actual ones who got rich in the Philippines, either those who were Born with it in one way or another or those who are corrupt or know how to cheat the system.

Thanks for Reading! =D
