ReplyDeleteWhat if you don' t have a TIN number? Is it possible to apply for a bpi direct savind account?
ReplyDeleteNo, do not invent your TIN numbers. You'll be having a problem if you do that. I suggest you go and get one. You can even have an ID in just a day. And, most of the facilities/agencies are asking for this TIN.
