SNAP: BPI Express Credit Card: Ridiculously fast.



I did say before how I try my best to stay credit card free except for my trusty eprepaid card. What ended that promise and what bothers me now is how I got one in the first place. This is seriously weird, and fast at the same time... and I haven't even applied to them!!

Tuesday. Received a call from BPI That I am eligible for a card. The only thing they ever asked was where I was working. After that I was told that they'd be sending my card anytime soon.

Friday. Text from BPI saying my card was approved. What?

Saturday. Noon. I received my card (LBC) with a credit limit far from the 10k limit I was prepared for. If I want something more than that I will pay in cash but never in credit. Why do they have to give me this tempting limit at all?! Why?!

So what just happened anyway?

Monday-Tuesday I was in contact with a Citibank person after a referral of an officemate. Thursday they called the house and so far not anything from them yet. The mysterious thing is that instead of getting a Citi card, in a span of 4 days, BPI suddenly calling me eligible for a card I never applied and receiving it in less than a week. It's like they bypassed whatever checking Citi has been doing and raced in offering me a credit card I would never refuse (more to that later).

I asked the one who referred me (Another officemate has been bugging me in getting one, although he never offered me a referral, he simply advised me it's for good credit standing) and said that the call RIGHT after Citi's confirmation (of me getting a card from them) made me 'exist' on other banks as well. Like suddenly everyone knows I exist. So what gave BPI any reason to give me a card without actually applying for it?

1. My officemate says that credit companies share database records and this is how they both get clients, AND chase those guys who never pays. So maybe, someone from Citi shared my details to BPI seeing that I'm a customer ever since which brings us to #2

2. I've been a depositor of BPI since I don't know, probably 2010, with two accounts. Maybe it's because of the transactions?

3. It's a miracle.

4. Someone from BPI read my blog about the eprepaid card and came to mock me by approving the card :-p

So why won't I refuse? Two things. Travel and concerts. I usually buy us tickets and the price is really steep at times so it's obviously easy for me to gain points from there. And as for travel, the officemate I mentioned about credit standing told me that BPI so far has the best exchange rates for purchases made abroad-- which I would need if I will go with my plan of travelling overseas once a year. When we went to HK, since I was the only one paying for everything I was always worried of not getting enough cash to go home so we haven't splurged on shopping even just a bit, so this is something I could bring too, right?

  1. I also received a call just a few minutes ago. I was caught off guard with the situation so I said to call me tomorrow morning. But the thing is, I applied for a credit card in BPI last October, had an interview but no call returned if I was approved. This one was different. It was not ab approval from my previous application. The agent said that I have a good standing; had several equity funds account. The credit limit they offered was twice the credit limit I expected. So I'm a bit hesitant to accept the offer. But after reading this, I think I will give my response and accept the approval. Thanks for sharing this.

    FYI: after the call i immediately search the net for those people that experienced the same situation. XD

  2. I just had the same experience. Someone from the head office of BPI called me to offer their blue mastercard, no need to send documents according to her since it was pre-approved. So that was Monday last week, then Wednesday, I received a text just to confirm that the credit card application was approved and that I'd received the card within the next 5 banking days. By Friday the credit card details along with the 30k limit is already reflecting on my EOL account. Then Saturday, I received the card. It's been sitting inside my wallet. I am somehow afraid to use it hehehe. Just sharing. :)

  5. Same with me BPI called and offered me the card. I was expecting like 10k I was surprise that my credit was 55k. Now I'm afraid to use it..
    Still waiting for my card though.

  6. When did you apply for the card? I applied at a Trinoma Event last 24th of April and still no call or information.

  7. hello I never said I applied :-D. They called me hehe

  8. Hi there! I had the same experience with you. My cc arrived yesterday. Can you please help me what to do next? Do I need to activate it first?

    ReplyDelete
  9. had this too! they called me up before holy week so i said i'll think about it and call back monday after, which they did. i was hesitant at first but given the big credit limit and pre-approved status, no requirements needed, i said yes. the delivery came fast but i wasn't there the first time. for the courier to go back a second time took quite long.

  10. I have cc from BDO - American Express and from BPI - Express credit. The reason why you were pre approved with the express credit card is number 2.
    " 2. I've been a depositor of BPI since I don't know, probably 2010, with two accounts. Maybe it's because of the transactions?"

    Because of you deposit account with them. The reason why it's pre approved is they have something they can get from you if and ever you fail to pay your credit card with them.

    ReplyDelete

    1. forgot to add.. both of them are pre approved. BDO limit is 40k and BPI express is 10k which is always the case.

      I have savings account with both of them. I guess as long as your account always hits 10k (deposit) you are included on the pre approved list. So if you wanted to have another cc, try to open a savings account with BDO. The con with my amex card is, there isn't a lot of local groceries in my area that accepts amer. Only savemore and puregold does. And the big ones like SM,Rustan's. Compared to a Visa/Mastercard which is widely acceptable even with small grocery stores.

    2. i believe so too. but i don't know, not everyone gets the privilege. i wonder why we still have approval here though. i used to have a friend who says from their country for as long as you have a job cc companies will line on your door.

  11. This happened to me too. I was even afraid that maybe the one who called me was a fraud. I called BPI to verify the call and they said that the caller was their credit card agent and it was legit. I think they have special agents who review accounts and if yours have a good track record, you are automatically qualified for the blue credit card. I like it so I didn't bother to complain. Plus, if you use the card to purchase tickets online you will have a travel insurance. =)

  12. Hi! I know it's late but I just received a call last Aug. 27 from bpi, saying that I am eligible for their cc. It got approved last sept 2 and now I am still waiting for the card. How many days po ba usually? Nsa province po kasi ako

  13. Hi, I had a similar experience.
    They called me September 2 and said that I'm they were just updating their records and then asked me to apply. I said no, kasi I have an outstanding CC bill with them that I had been trying to settle for the longest time. Sabi nung kausap ko, try lang daw. Well sabi ko, sge na nga and thought I would probably help out the telemarketer din. And I thought na hindi naman ma approve. September 5, I received a text saying it's approved and the card will be delivered in 10 banking days.

    I was thinking pa nga na baka it was all a mistake. tapos yesterday, when I got home, the card has been delivered na. I checked my EOL and andon na nga sya! Super FAAAST.

  14. Hi, me too. They called me last Thursday (September 10, 2015) offering a Credit Card that doesn't have an annual fee, as long as I purchase a total amount of Php 5,000.00 within 3 months. Which is a good deal that's why I grab it then yesterday (September 15, 2015) I received a text message that my application was approved and today around 2 pm our receptionist called me that my card is already there. I checked my online account and I can see my CC account.So, yeah! That's quite fast. ;)

  16. Last Wed (11/11) I received a call super early in the morning from a Telemarketer, just like most of you had experienced. I gave all the information she needed (with me half-awake), and agreed like "Sure, why not?" She gave me a reference number, and thought of calling the BPI hotline to ask what that was all about, and indeed it was a CC application. The only difference is that the telemarketer said "Pre-Approved" and the agent from the hotline said "Pre-Qualified". And just wait for 15days for the result. Now, I want to see the CC in my mail to believe it.

  17. OMG! I got a call rin this morning. I applied last year for a cc pero hindi ako approved. Pero sana ma-approve this time kahit bago palang ako sa work ko :)

  18. Hi Guys!
    I received a call 2 days ago from a BPI representative. She told me that they are updating their records and after that she offered me to apply for a CC.. No requirements needed just my confirmation. So right now, im waiting for a text. Do you guys think that I'll be approved?

  19. I also got a call on November 24, 2015 from a BPI representative offering me to apply for a BPI Blue Mastercard. It's weird because I applied for a BPI credit card earlier this year and they sent me a letter saying I am only qualified to apply for their secured credit card. That means my application for a regular credit card was denied.

  25. I received a call din sa BPI just this Dec. After 3 days lang I think, nadeliver na sa bahay but I was in Divisoria. I called BPI that I'd just hve it picked up sa nearest branch ko. Then, chada.. Got my gold cc! True, nalula ako sa credit limit. To think na wala sa 5 digits ang savings ko sa kanila, bat kaya nila ako inofferan? Pero I use BPI to pay my bills. Di kaya nakikita nila na prompt ako magbayad sa aking mga responsibility? :p lol

  36. Ako din. same experience. Question lang, nakadepende ba sa work ung pag approve nila? Kasi 25k ang gross income ko per month but I am not an employee. I am a freelancer.

So guys, meron naba ditong na offeran nila na hindi regular employee pero approved?

I was shocked, I never applied for it so i just said ok?? haha, i have two savings account with them both are for my payroll for my main and part-time job which most of the time being zeroed out, lol plus one prepaid visa card. Thursday got a text message saying that my card was approved, friday t'was delivered! wow! i can't believe it. I have a savings account in BDO, kinda "reasonable" amount already, I applied for a credit card twice and was declined! haha now i'm thinking of transferring my savings to BPI because they indeed make things happen ^^.

  49. Hi,

    we had the same situation, i received a call from BPI teller then sinabi na qualified daw ako to get CC from them tapos waived pa yung annual fee for life at tempting din yung CL na binigay kaya grab ko agad, waiting nalang ako ng confirmation nila. probably kaya naqualified ako is dahil sa transaction ko nung month of July, medyo malaki kasi yung nagastos ko nun eh, nakita siguro nila sa transaction history ko. hahahha

    1. Secured credit card yung sa inyo,Sir/Maam. Kaya may ATM card ka kasi you opened a deposit account with them. Yung 10k mo serves as your collateral. They hold that amount for a year pero based on online research, after 12 months with your secured credit card, pwede ka nang mag apply for a credit card without the collateral.

It's for amore visa too and I just have to spend at least 5k daw within the first 3 months so that waived ang annual fee. Then binigyan ako ng reference number. Sabi pa nya san ko daw address gusto ipa deliver yung card and id wala daw ako magiwan na lang ako authorization letter and id. That was last October 10.

  59. Just a heads up. Yez, BPI offers pre approved credit card (no requirements needed) as long as you have an account with them and at least 10k in your account as it will be put on hold. This was told by the BPI teller which I declined as I dont want my 10k to be put on hold just to have a credit card.

  64. I applied for a Secured CC as well for a BPI Amore Visa last Dec. 3, 2016 and until now still waiting for the card. I got SMS from BPI informing that card will be delivered Dec.2016 but no specific date and so I thought this will not be deliver in time. I requested for a callback from BPI since I am outside of PH now. They updated me that there's still no estimated time of delivery and i can't wait for the card. I was offered to get a BPI Blue Mastercard while waiting for the Amore Visa. And Blue Mastercard will have free annual fee for a year then I have the option to continue after a year with Annual fee or can cancel the CC within 1 year at no extra charge. This was a better option from BPI instead of blankly waiting for who when it will be exactly deliver.

  66. I was also offered to opt for another BPI card while waiting for my Amore Visa to arrive so I chose the BPI Blue MasterCard w/c has to be linked with my Amore Visa. I have just received the card yesterday delivered to the nominated branch but it takes two months before it was actually delivered.

  68. @Kerra, so they are only offering the BPI Blue Mastercard then. Thought there's another option. The CSR I spoke with yesterday informed that would be about 10 working days to deliver.

    2. I've been emailing then since I cannot get through to their 89-100 hotline, they never say that I can only choose the BPI Blue Mastercard, they said that I can opt for another card w/c they can process within 7 banking days and since this is my first BPI card I just chose the Blue Mastercard just in line with the Amore Visa. Even though I have a JCB Gold from RCBC Bankard but I still have to prove myself to them. The BPI Skymiles MasterCard supposed to be my first option but i'm not traveling that often so thats why I just chose the Blue one.

    7. @kerra: haven't received mine yet. hope it will be delivered tomorrow before the holidays. whew! it's been delayed for quite a long time. i already received my bill on the second week of december.

  70. I've never stopped emailing them, making follow ups and told them to speed up the delivery process to ensure that they've meet their deadline w/c is December 2016. But I have stressed out that if they could deliver the card before Christmas day I would be very happy so ayun na deliver ng 23rd, kulitin nyo kasi wag na sa hotline nila at ang tagal just send them an email. So I have now two cards from them, the BPI Blue MasterCard and Amore Visa both are linked cards.

Was asking about my information like full name, bday, sss #, name ng mother ko and address ko.. Said yes to the offer namn na cc since hastle free na xia.. Asked ko lng if gnito din ba information ang hinihingi nila for cc para ma process na ang cc? She also gave me a reference # and will wait for the sms to know if it's approve or not. Is this legit or was scam? Thanks po sasagot. God Bless!!!

    1. That was the same number of the one who called me last week. Yes this is legit. She offered me Blue Mastercard and was already approved. I already received a text regarding my approval. I'm just waiting for the card to be delivered in the next 5 days.

    2. Hello. My application got approved and card was delivered in the office but I was not there to receive it. What number should I call so I can tell them that I have prepared an authorization letter so they can deliver it again? Thank you.

    3. Hi! 16th day na since tinawagan ako ng number na yan from BPI (15-20 days daw ang processing). Wala akong nakukuhang update galing sa kanila regarding the status so tinry ko icheck sa Express Phone.

      I'm worried kasi I found out na hindi daw valid yung reference number na binigay sakin. Not existing.
      Nag-email ako sa BPI and sabi, wala daw yung pangalan ko sa application system nila.

      Natatakot tuloy ako ngayon. Sobrang unsecured ba ng BPI para malaman nung caller yung personal information ko? I was asked to update my info and lahat ng binanggit niya, na-confirm kong tama. Then inaccept ko nga yang credit card na inoffer. Magkaka-credit card na sana ako na totoo at hindi yung prepaid lang, pero mukhang hindi pa matutuloy. Nakuhaan pa ko ng personal info.

      Meron ba kayong advice on what I should do about this? Nakuha na ng caller lahat ng info ko, what if hindi pala talaga siya taga-BPI? :/

      Thanks sa lahat ng sasagot!

    4. minsan kasi madaming creddit card agents na tumatawag.offering different cards. that's why di na ko nag-eentertain ng mga calls at application offers coming from other agents kc pwede nila ibigay ung info sa ibng credit card agents of different banks.magtataka ka na lang na sasabihin nila you are prequalified..

    5. @Vanny, same tayo ng experience, yung sakin lang ni contact ako via SMS. Good thing she can be reached out via Viber or Line. Pero until now wala padin update, sabi niya lang mag-antay ng text from BPI kung approved. I also sent status request from BPI EOL pero wala raw akong request na CC application (weird!). Last submission ko nun from was March 23rd pa and 6 days na wala padin update (excluding weekends).

    6. that's kinda weird though. someone called you up but upon verification sa bank, you don't have application..maybe delayed lang cguro na nasubmit sa bank.

    Try mo i-report sa BPI kung wala pa din after 20 days. Ang dami kong nakausap na operator, palipat lipat ako. Until yung last na nakausap ko, dinirect na sa marketing dept nila yung issue. Hindi na ko kinuhanan ulit ng info, basta pinaalam lang sa marketing dept na inofferan ako ng CC. The next day, may text agad na approved na. Then next day ulit, dumating na yung card. Nakakatawa na sobrang bilis bigla. Tinaasan pa yung credit limit.

    Pero nakakakaba dba?? Di mo sure kung katiwa-tiwala yung pinagbibigyan mo ng info mo. Pero ang nakatanggal ng worry ko noon is -- cinonfirm nung bpi phone banker na sa bpi nga yung number na to:027952500. Maybe you can ask if yung kumontak sayong number ganun din.

  78. Hi. Na approved na po ang cc application ko nagtx po ang BPI. Do I really need to have an authorization letter if dumating na ang cc ko? I'm renting a room lang kasi then 6pm na kung makauwi. Salamat!

    1. Yes, required siya kapag di ikaw ang rereceive. Plus, photocopy ng ID mo and ID nung rereceive ng CC mo.

    1. Usually, kapag ganyang SMS medyo dapat cautious ka. All the comments I've read here is puro call. Ordinary cell number ba ang nagtext sayo?

    1. Good for you. Yung sakin, I received a message May 26 na approved na card ko and to be delivered within 5 days... up to now wala pa ko narereceive na cc. Nauna pa yung statement of acct kesa sa cc. Thinking of having it cancelled kung tatagal pa ng 2 weeks yun. I received a text din na it was dispatched na sa preferred bpi branch ko.

  81. Nakakaingit naman - ang tagal ko na nag aaply ng CC laging denied

    More than 5 years nako sa BPI at weekly dun lahat pumapasok income ko (Online Freelancer ako) Di bumababa sa 20k ung laman nung dalawa kong savings account sa kanila. Pero di pa din ako tinatawagan :(
