Buhay night shift sa Mega Tower, kamusta?

Hello po! Finally got a new job~ 🎉

Mega Tower, 8pm-5am night shift, 3x/week on-site.

Any recos for my new Mandaluyong lifestyle? Places to eat na open pa ng hatinggabi. Kamusta safety around 5am-6am. And the like.

Galing ako south, ang recommend sakin ay bumaba ng Shaw Station kasi mas malapit daw yun. Gusto ko sana bumaba sa Ortigas Station para pwede muna gumala sa Megamall, but what are your thoughts?
(Of course I can try both, but I'd love to hear your inputs!)

Anything else you can share, please let me know, too~
Thank you for reading!

Help finding merchant category for BPI CC transactions

Hello!

I recently discovered BPI CC Platinum is wasted on me, and I should have been using their Amore or Robinsons (prev Amore Platinum) cards.

Now, I want to know if:

  1. I have been spending more on groceries (for Amore) or on food delivery (for Robinsons); and if

  2. The SM Markets online store ( https://smmarkets.ph/ ) counts as groceries category or online shopping in the first place.

According to BPI's Nov 2025 announcement (see attached), the merchant category should be visible when checking transactions after the latest statement.

However, after checking both BPI Online and BPI App, neither of them showed the merchant category (see attached).

Perhaps I'm missing something?

I would have been fine using BPI's Track & Plan Insights if it can give me a computation per merchant category, but I can't seem to understand how to get that kind of info out of it. 🫪

Can you guys help me find the best proven way to calculate spending per merchant category so I can decide if I should go with BPI's Amore or Robinsons CC?

Thank you!
