With my 4 years as a part of the workforce, I only have BPI (Bank of the Philippine Islands) as my bank. Mostly because it is the one used for work and BPI is mostly everywhere. You can see a BPI ATM just around the corner. But lately, I’ve been noticing that BPI has been having problems. Whenever it’s nearing salary day, most of their ATMs are down or under maintenance which is a total hassle.
So, I’m thinking of opening another bank account- just thinking. One of my options is BDO (Banco de Oro). I visited their website to check their savings account lists and account opening requirements. I got answers for my first inquiry but the site does not a have a list of requirements for opening an account. Good thing, there’s a BDO branch near my office building so I decided to go there and ask for their requirements.
