Hawak niyo padin ba lahat ng debit and credit cards niyo simula noon? Some people collect and keep them. Kayo ba?

Okay binalik na nang GCash ang kanilang 0% foreign currency transaction fee for transactions made through ATM withdrawals, physical stores, and online purchases.

This means you can use your GCash Visa Card for international transactions without the additional FX fee. Nice nice

A viral social media post has sparked criticism after a netizen alleged that Puregold staff laughed at a customer who was reportedly unable to use a MariBank card.

“What did not sit right with me is the cashier and the baggers pinagtatawanan pa nila yung customer pag alis.”

The netizen also alleged that staff joked with other customers, saying the shopper might be the “tagapag-mana” of MariBank.

Meanwhile, a supervisor allegedly told the customer: “No matter which Puregold you go to, they won't accept it. We have just one management.”

The incident has since prompted other customers to share their own experiences with MariBank cards at Puregold.

So I'm curious, is 828 actually considered a good/decent score in the Philippines?

Would love to hear from people with similar scores/situations.

Add: Anong meaning nung "segment"?? Hinalughog ko na buong internet and I cant find a public TransUnion table that maps those segment numbers to a particular meaning 😭

Around 2 years ago, gustong gusto ko magka Credit Card dahil convenient siya pambayad plus the rewards and perks that comes with it. Pero hindi ako naapprove. 🥲

Hanggang sa napagod nalang ako mag apply. Then last year January, nag open ako ng MariBank dahil nakita ko ito sa r/DigitalbanksPh. After ko magkaroon ng account, doon na ako nagsave.

Kaya nung lumabas ang news na magkakaroon na daw ng Credit Card si MariBank, bumalik yung eagerness mag ka CC 😅

Sadly, hindi ako nakasama sa mga nagkaroon ng early access. Pero kahapon pagbukas ko ng MariBank ko, nakita ko na pwede na daw ako mag apply. Then ayun na nga! Sumakses na! ☺️

Kaya sa mga nahihirapan ma approve ng CC sa mga banks, try niyo magopen ng MariBank account and gamitin niyo lng siya at magsave. Malay niyo, kayo na ma offeran ng CC nextime 😊

I think on-going pa itong Rewards promo nila: https://www.reddit.com/r/DigitalbanksPh/s/jbvQ1Hlkeh
