So you owe Home Credit money...but hey, at least you can use BPI to pay it (with a smile!)
Let's face it, nobody enjoys staring down the barrel of a bill. But hey, when it comes to your Home Credit loan, there's a silver lining! You can actually use your trusty BPI credit card to settle that debt. That's right, plastic to the rescue!
But wait, isn't that like robbing Peter to pay Paul?
Well, not exactly. Think of it as a strategic maneuver, a financial foxtrot if you will. You're using one line of credit to temporarily hold off another, all while earning rewards points on your BPI card (if it offers them). It's like getting a high five on the way to the principal's office - you might be in trouble, but you at least got a pat on the back.
Okay, I'm intrigued. How do I do this magical credit card switcheroo?
Here's where things get smooth like butter (or, you know, whatever delicious food you bought with your Home Credit loan). BPI offers two ways to use your credit card for your Home Credit payment:
1. BPI Online or Mobile App: Prepare for a Digital Dance Party!
- Log in to your BPI Online account or fire up the ever-reliable BPI Mobile App. It's like putting on your dancing shoes - you're ready to bust a move (a financial move, that is).
- Head over to the "Payments/Load" section. This is where the magic happens.
- Look for the "Pay Bills" option. Consider it your invitation to the financial boogie.
- Now, here's the key part: Under "Pay From," select your BPI Credit Card as the hero of the day.
- Under "Pay To," find the biller section and look for "BPI EXPRESS CARD CORP (BECC)". This might not be the coolest name at the party, but it's definitely the one holding your Home Credit loan hostage (in a totally legal way).
- Enter the amount you want to transfer from your BPI card to Home Credit. Remember, this amount will be added to your credit card balance, so be sure you can handle it!
- Confirm all the details, double-check everything (just like you would your outfit before hitting the dance floor).
- Finally, whoosh! Verify the transaction with your trusty One-Time PIN (OTP). This is like showing your ID at the club - gotta make sure it's really you.
2. BPI Bill Payment Partners: Spreading the Love
BPI also has a squad of awesome bill payment partners, including Bayad Centers, SM Department Stores, and Robinsons Malls. If venturing out into the real world is your thing, you can head to any of these partners and settle your Home Credit dues using your BPI credit card.
Just a heads up: There might be a minimal transaction fee involved, so be sure to ask before you swipe.
And there you have it!
Paying your Home Credit loan with your BPI credit card is a breeze. Just remember, it's a temporary solution. Like that slice of cake you bought with your credit card, eventually you gotta pay it off! But hey, at least you have a little more time to mambo with your finances.
