Comment on Banco de Oro Closing Bank Accounts Without Prior Notice! by Mathdelane

Shan,
I feel for you. I did the same in the past. Fortunately, the money went back to Paypal minus the 5 dollar free from BDO after a week. Back then, I talked to a BDO branch manager who handles the remittances, Paypal is considered a remittance. If BDO account is closed, chances are BDO has the funds but normally (as they say, their systems rejects it from going into a closed account) it should go back to your Paypal account if it’s still active. A month is a long wait and 3,000 dollars is serious money, I’ve definitely gone so stressed and run amok if I were you. Back then, the withdrawal status changed (I just forgot what it says) when BDO pushed the money back to Paypal. Happened only in 3 days so within a week I got my money back to my Paypal account. I watched it closely kasi within 3 days after I processed it online, ganun ko sya tinutukan.

Next time, limit your transfers to small amounts. Large sums make eyes pop and minds go wild. A devil’s work. You know what I mean… Ingat na lang next time and I hope you’ll get your money back.

Help. I work as an offshore freelance animator, I withrawed the fund from my papal to my bdo account, i waited for abount a week and went to the available atm machine to check my balance and realize its closed, I checked my paypal account and status says completed, i called paypal and the guy told me Wala na daw silang magagawa kapag nasa bank na at completed na ung status. At hindi daw papasok yun sa bdo account kapag closed na. Its been a month na pero wala paring bumabalik sa paypal account ko. babalik pa ba yun kapag completed na status? Tumawag ako sa bdo at sabi imposible daw na my pumasok kapag close na ung account. So san na napunta ang 3,000 UDS ko?

Dropbox. Probably, the best application ever developed for file sharing. But Apple did not buy.

Comment on Expired Certificate Error Quick Fix for Nokia Smartphones by Mathdelane

Hi Shriraj,
If the above options didn’t work, there’s no use pushing to use an app that doesn’t work on your phone as it may cause future troubles due to non-updated codes in it. I’d suggest getting a similar app that has a working certificate instead to avoid any problems that may occur in the near future.

Comment on Secure and Private Email System Made Possible by PrivacyHarbor by PAUL

PAUL — Fri, 02 Mar 2012 23:40:52 +0000

Avoid the Privacyharbor e-mail service. Beneath the glossy web interface lays a slow and unreliable e-mail service. E-mails can take between 15 minutes to half a day to arrive in your Privacyharbor inbox; others never arrived. Response from the support team is either poor or nonexistent. When a refund was requested under their 60 day money back guarantee, this was ignored and to date I have not received this.

Hi, interestingly JustHost is the best provider I have had so far. In my opinion everybody experiences in a different way.If JustHost is that bad, then try 123-reg, freehosting.com..then compare it.

Could someone elaborate on the automatic and forced promo/ad issue mentioned by Henri? Is it avoidable? Also, who is MSGTAG’s main competitor?

Hi Jack,
Have you checked their documentation regarding the email platforms where it’s compatible? I’d suggest doing so or maybe sending this a pre-sales email.

Personally I have only tried Dropbox and CX.com for online file storage. I think I should try out this SpiderOak also.

This is so true. I use the BDO Online Banking to pay all of my bills and make online purchases through Paypal. Apparently, my balance went below their minimum for a while (a result of my avoiding of their long lines for depositing money) and they closed my account without warning.

I called my branch to ask them to reopen it, and they were most unhelpful. They did not even attempt to find a solution. Every time I’ve ever had a problem with this bank, they’d “find ways” to drive me away. It is the most disgusting display of (lack of) customer service.

Another thing that bothers me is their depositing policy. I opened an account in Manila when I first started working and moved to Cebu a few years later. Upon depositing money in Cebu, I was asked to pay 100 pesos for their “regional fee.” I thought this was ridiculous. It’s my money, my account, and the same bank. Why would they need to charge me?

Personally, I think BDO is the worst bank to go to in terms of customer service. They could not care less about their customers. All they want is money, money, money. Who cares who they have to screw over to get it, right?

Bastards.
