Got my visa the other day. Good and sad news: Approved, but single entry only. Must be the fact that I have no recent purchase and supplementary card lang kasi yung akin. Hindi ko rin magagamit ang visa since I was only after the multiple entry promo ng BPI and I have other plans this year at hindi kaya i-accomodate ng budget ang biglaang korea tour. Oh well papel. Reading cases of unused visa para in case kumuha ulit ako di ako magkaproblema since agency na ang application ko. Ayoko magpaconsult since pati yun may bayad na kaloka.

^Awww buti nasabi mo yan sis. I?m planning to apply na sana this weekend pero 150php lang nasa recent statement ko haha. Naiwan lang na bayarin. Aantayin ko na lang mag-generate next statement ko, andun yung big purchase ko. Anong agency pala yung may bayad consultation? And hindi ba ibabawas yung consultation fee sa application fee?

Sayang $:-\$ Ako naman wala akong card--bale si husband ang meron. Pero nabigyan naman ng multiple. Dapat siguro you applied as a family with the primary account holder? Ganun yung nangyari samin.

Nakakahinayang sis. Gamitin mo na lang--meron naman cheap flights Ceb Pac, yun nga lang pangit yung hours. Pero pinatulan ko

Pwede ka rin mag-hostel. Siguro kahit 3 days 2 nights lang.

Travel Pros 700php nalang from 950php

sis @mysterioza_me sis sa iyo ko pala nabasa. Nag-check ako ng website ng Reli tours pero Japan Visa lang ang naka-post sa main page so di ko ma-verify if may consultation fee pa rin. Try mo na rin mag-purchase just to be sure and bring a photocopy of your birth cert to prove na parents m yung priomary (hindi ko alam paano kapag kapatid. Pwede na rin siguro ang birth cert?)

Reli Tours - panget ng Reviews, rude daw mga tauha and may 500php consultation fee (bayad daw sa pagcheck if complete ang requirements - on top pa ito ng visa application fee)

sis @Annie M. sis mas malaki kasi yung gagastusin ko compared sa pag-e-explain bakit hindi ko nailipad ang visa. May mga plans na rin kasi ako this year. Gusto ko lang talaga kumuha ng multiple entry visa na sadly e hindi nga na-grant. Naisip ko na rin yung sa parents pero may mga situation kasi kami na baka hindi tutugma sa i-pe-present namin na documents. Kaya ang naisip ko na painaka-support kapag nag-travel kami as a family is nag-grant kami ako ng multiple entry visa.

Oh well papel. Try again next time. Post ko dito kung ano mangyari sa akin haha! May mga nabasa ako na despite not using their single entry visa e na-grant pa rin sila ng multiple entry because of their BPI/BDO gold mastercard naman. Let's see yung sa akin.

^Ah akala ko nagconsult ka na sa travel agency. Sa Travel Pros nagbaba sila ng singil 700php nalang from 950. Ako nga pala primary cardholder ng bdo card. Hopefully ma-grant ako ng multiple visa.

Yung flights ng cebupac medyo alanganin yung alis and dating. Kaya we opted for Air Asia during our February trip to Seoul.

Waiting ako sa flight deals for cherry blossom next year. Plan namin 1-2 times a year bumalik, sayang kasi ang 3yr ME visa.

on requirements, buti inalis na yung Alphalist. Medyo hassle kasi talaga yun, tapos privacy concern pa.

Hi sisses! My husband, sister and I will be travelling to Korea on the first week of April. Any recommendations for budget accommodations for three? Yung near train stations sana and close din to some tourist destinations if possible.

Thank you so much!

^try mock-booking at booking.com or agoda.com para you can choose your filter.

sabi sa Reli Tours ang reco daw ng Korean Embassy ay PhP 700 lang talaga dapat ang singil. wala naman silang consultation fee. inapply ko si hubby last weekend. kailangan na computerized ang application form, they encoded it for us.

mysterioza_me · « **Reply #369 on:** July 11, 2018, 07:03:38 pm »

^Ah baka kaya nagbaba din ang Travel Pros. 700php na din singil nila from 950php.

Question: kapag nagrequest ba ng bank statement/certificate from bdo ibibigay ba agad or babalikan yun after a few days?

planning to go to korea again on january, do you think they will issue a ME visa? VIsited SK 3 times na (Oct 2011, dec2017,june 2018)I have no BPI gold and BDO cc

Kami on our 3rd time to go to Korea nabigyan kami ng 3 year ME without BPI or BDO credit cards. Our 1st visit was on 2011 and 2nd visit was on 2013 then nung 2015 tsaka kami binigyan ng ME. Pero meron kaming ME US Visa kaya kasama na rin siguro yun sa nakatulong.

projectgora · « **Reply #374 on:** July 18, 2018, 12:15:44 pm »

@sis summer888 sana mabigyan din ako ME kahit wala akong BPI or BDO CC

Twice na ako nakapag Korea (2014 and 2015) at meron akong ME UK Visa. Two weeks na lang aalis na ako at bukas pa lang ako mag aapply haha.

Anyone tried JTB in Vertis North? HM kayo application fee and turn around time?

Naku Sis, in 2 weeks na ang alis mo? Dapat mag apply ka na asap kase mas matagal ang processing ngayon dahil hindi na direct sa kanila. Kung malapit ka sa bandang North EDSA try mo sa Travelpros sa SM North. According to some previous posts here Php700 na lang ata ang processing fee. Balitaan mo kami sa result ng application mo ha. Nag expire na kase last year yung ME Korean Visa namin and are planning to apply again late this year without BDO or BPI credit cards. Hoping for another ME sana ulit kami since marami na ring nadagdag na trips to Korea & other OECD countries in the last 3 years.

Anyone from Cebu who wants to buy won? I have some left over from our korea trip.

I was so disappointed sa Nami Island </3 di talaga maganda in the summer. parang pinas lang, di ko talaga ma.appreciate

mysterioza_me · « **Reply #377 on:** July 19, 2018, 10:07:26 pm »

^^15 working days ang turn around time ng TravelPros. Tumawag ako sa kanila last week.

^Yan din sabi ng sis ko. Parang nasa Pinas lang sa Nami during summer

minatay91 · « **Reply #378 on:** July 19, 2018, 11:36:53 pm »

^ yes, I wouldn't recommend Korea during the summer at all <_<

mysterioza_me · « **Reply #379 on:** July 20, 2018, 12:35:02 am »

^No choice e, if matutuloy kami summer alis namin hay. Unless magpachange sked ang cebpac at iallow ang rebooking
