Nagbukas ako ng account sa Security Bank noong nakaraang araw dahil kailangang kong magbukas ulit ng account sa PayPal at dahil malayo ang Union Bank sa lugar ko I decided na dito na lang ako sa banko na ito kasi authorized sya ng PayPal to handle transactions sa kanila. During the interview I was asked about my sources of income and the interviewer asked me if I am involved with Bitcoin and similar things and I honestly said yes but pointed out that this account is for PayPal and not for cryptocurrency transactions.
I was specifically told na bawal pala daw ang mag-deposit ng pera na galing sa Bitcoin o cryptocurrency na ang ibig sabihin bawal mag encash sa Coins.Ph at ipa-deposit sa account mo sa Security Bank... ang pwede eh yung kanilang eGiveCash na cashless withdrawal. Ang reason na binigay ng interviewer is that the Central Bank has warned them about Bitcoin and similar business transactions as banks are not authorized to handle the same and if ever I am caught depositing or sending money from Bitcoin encashment to my account then the bank can forfeit the same money that's why the warning.
Totoo rin ata to sa iba pang bangko lalo na yung mga sikat at malalaki though I was able to deposit money to my Metrobank account before from Coins.Ph. Siguro itanong ko rin ito sa coins.ph ano ba talaga ang clear situation...
Nag withdraw po ako from coins.ph to metrobank just last week, and wala naman po ako naging problema sa kanya. I think this issue is just for this bank.
Ang nakakapagtaka lang is bakit naka list paring si security bank sa withdrawing ng coins.ph
kahit ako wala naman problema kapag magcashout ako ng pera thru coins.ph papunta sa ibang bangko, pero kapag mag aaply ka sa kanila ng open account at ang source of income mo ay crypto currency sure na denied agad.
