RCBC-MNG Credit Card

So here's the corpus delicti why I am indebted. I have always received application forms via email from MNG asking me to apply for their RCBC-MNG Card. But i didn't try since I have a "negative occupation" and most  of my officemates always almost got denied in the application. But i gave it a try after the third email.

I filled-out the form photocopied my ID and gave my application to MNG. i told myself that i just wanted the card and won't use it. seriously, for a shopaholic like me it's the biggest irony! hehehe

After two weeks, i got my card! yahoo! I have been an extension of my Dad and brother so i really got excited that i have my own!

the black card is POSH! it's a wallet-candy!and i got a credit limit of Php20,000!

the perks:
gives an exclusive cardholders only access on sale season and gives 0% interest for 3 to 6 months on MNG purchases. how it works? i still do no know.

as if a premonition, the magnetic strip of my card got scratched after a couple of days.

when i called RCBC's hotline number, they told me that they can replace the card for free but i have to try it at two terminals first to see it it works. so that's what i did. it didn't work at Kamiseta's terminal, but 9 terminals after i'm almost maxed out! hala!

haven't received my statement yet so this blog to be continued.

DC: Francesco Buon Amico

      After “forever”, I finally got my Francesco discount card! Yipee! I got mine at Alabang Town Center when I bought my white Madrid Birkenstock for my birthday last year. Ate Vilma “lured” me into applying when she noticed that I bought my third pair of Birkenstock in the same store! Actually it’s my first in the store since my Birkenstock were bought in germany. The first two Birkenstock in the list are my dad’s and brother’s. so for my 6th Birkenstock I’m already entitled to the 10% discount.

Good thing google was able to translate “buon amico” which means ”good friend”. Since I have been buying in the same store for the past three consecutive years, I indeed became good friends with Ate Vilma of Francesco.

The perks:

Buon amico cardholder is entitled to 10% discount on cash or credit purchases on regular items. I’m just not sure if this same card will entitle me to an additional 5% discount on sale items.

Aside from my discount, Francesco gives me a 10% or 20% discount every year during my birth month. Just perfect!

I think it’s a lifetime discount card already with no expiry. But I’ll stll check on that.

The freebie:

The card was stick on a leather journal.

The notebook has the “Gruppo Francesco” printed on the cover and the leaves are blank pages.

The best thing about this card is I was able to get it only after more than a eyar it wasissued. Thanks to my in-laws and to ate vilma!

I’m not sure when to use it again since my cousins from germany will be coming to the PI soon and I missed their sale season.

But this card gotme prepared for the next one.O=)
