Did mine sa Metrobank pero with CIBC. In CIBC, there is an option to choose USD or CAD. I chose USD so from my Php account to USD to CIBC.

I just showed them the letter, filled out a form and done. Got confirmation from CIBC in less than 48 hrs.
Hello. May I know which Metrobank branch po kayo nagtransact for your GIC

dear all,

i just done my GIC application today but I did not put my middle name because in the space provided it only asked first name and last name.
while in my passport there is middle name. is this a problem?

appreciate if someone can revert. i start getting worried after reading some comments here about mismatched information from GIC application against passport information.

thanks in advance.

Not all branch are aware. I know PNB Shangrila and BDO Gil Puyat knows the procedure.
if in UAE, go to PNB Karama branch, they can assist you open an account and all.
Hi! What is the requirements the PNB was asking u to provide?. Kc ung pamangkin ko hinihingan sya ng internation student id ng PNB which is impossible to provide dahil wala pa sya dito. Is acceptance letter from school is good enough?. Thank u

Sa Metrobank ako nag transfer pero nung mag deposit ako ng GIC sa Scotiabank Pinakita ko sa Metro yung acceptance letter ko at yung printout ko ng SDS requirement for a GIC deposit. Tinanggap naman po ng Metro. If ang hinihingi ng PNB ay student id number, usually po kasama yung info na yun sa LOA.
