We are in the same boat. My fiancée paid the fee Monday at 11 am. By tuesday morning the fee was still not active in their system. My fiancee is going to the back to inquire about the fee on that end. Is there a way to find out where it is in the processing? Does BPI lose fees?

Thanks,

Lyn and Art

Hi there,

My fiancee called USem Manila again this morning (manila time), agent said that they are migrating to their new system and said thats the reason why our payment is not activated yet :wacko: agent told my fiance to call back again tomorrow coz they working on it already. We used all means available addressing our concern, I even tweeted to USem Manila asking who activates the payment, and leave post on the facebook offical fan page but as expected they gave me typical response giving links duh :bonk: Seems like all june 6 payment having a prob scheduling :crying:

Let's hope all be fixed real soon. Goodluck to us!

That explains it! :whistle::innocent:

I paid for the visa fee at BPI around 11am this morning & was able to schedule an interview appointment online around 7pm. :thumbs:

Has anyone tried rescheduling with the new system? I booked the 1st one available which was July 18 already. I wanna try rescheduling to an earlier date if possible but I'm afraid if I try to resked, it may delete the initial date I chose before I can decide. :unsure:

Some people schedule an interview online, then they call the call center and are able to reschedule to an earlier interview date. I have not heard of any problems doing it this way.

yes the receipt # is the passport #. anyway i spoke with a bpi customer rep, she said they have a system maintenance since june 4th/over the weekend up to this time and she doesnt know when would be their system be back to normal but they working on it already. well lets hope their system will be fixed today ;)

Dont expect that to work, i think they are having issues with the scheduling website. Mother-in-law paid the visa fee @ 11:am and by the next day its still not activated, even tried using both the receipt and passport no#. Suggest you call the call center instead. She's already scheduled for interview this Monday..June 13.

I paid last Tue, June 7 at 3pm and I was able to get a July 12 interview the next day, Wednesday on-line. I called them again today Thursday and the lady on the other line said the earliest she gave today was July 20. She can't access the calendar unless I cancel my July 12 , which I am hesitant to do because I might lose it and have to re-sked to a much later interview date. :)
