Philippine Bank Codes for Paypal and UnionBank Withdrawal Options




Karla Maganto from Quezon City emailed us this inquiry last night:

"Dear TechPinas, I'm an online graphic design freelancer and my clients in the US pay me in dollars via Paypal. I've been receiving payments since May 2008 but I haven't actually tried withdrawing any amount to my local bank just yet -- I'd like to do that now. I've been checking out Paypal's withdrawal process since the first time I received payment and I'm already quite familiar with it save for 2 small things: TechPinas, I'd like to know Unionbank's Bank Code and since I already have a Unionbank EON Card, do I have the option to withdraw directly to my Unionbank savings account instead of to my card? Thanks in advance!"

Hi Karla! Thanks for the inquiry!

Now, regarding your second concern: Yes, you have the option to withdraw your Paypal fund via Unionbank Savings Account if you already have an Eon Card. Most EON card holders do this because Paypal charges $5 if withdrawals are made via Debit or Credit card. Your Savings/Bank Account number is located on the lower left corner of the front panel of your Eon Card starting with 1094[...]. It takes around 5-7 days to complete local bank withdrawal.

  3. Hi,

    I tried to withdraw some bucks from paypal to my unionbank account, but unfortunately I didn't received it in my eon account. It's been one month late :(

    It's quite odd that everytime I called the customer service for unionbank they can't answer me directly.. they keep on passing me to paypal and so as paypal's customer service

  4. Hi Dess!

    That's odd. Normally it takes just 3-5 business days to complete Paypal - Unionbank transfer.

    Are you sure you put your correct bank account number in the box provided?

    Please check.
