HOWTO: Verify Paypal Philippines using Union Bank's EON Card

If you're looking for ways on how to verify your paypal account using Union Bank's EON Card, then this page is best suited for you. Make sure that your account type in Paypal is Premium. I'll share you my experience on how to verify paypal account using Union Bank. I assume that you reside in the Philippines.

Here are my suggested steps:

1. Go to the nearest Union Bank in your place. Be sure that you know your SSS number and Tax Identification Number(TIN) because they are needed when you fill up the EON application form. After 4 weeks, go back to the bank to claim your EON card. Make sure to bring 350 pesos for card's annual fee.

When I entered the bank, I approached the beautiful lady, one of the Bank's employees. I don't know if she's assigned to New Accounts. I told her that I'd like to apply for EON Visa card. She gave me an application form. I filled it up but I forgot to fill up the SSS field and TIN field. She noticed it and told me that SSS and TIN are required fields.

2. After 1 month, claim your EON Visa Card. Here are the requirements to claim your EON Visa card:

a.) You'll be paying 350 pesos for the annual fee.
b.) Photocopy of two valid IDs.
You could also deposit 500 pesos to your EON Visa Card. You can pay the annual fee and deposit 500 pesos at the same time. Your account number appears at the bottom of the EON Card (below your name in the card).

Your EON Card PIN will be given to you. Make sure that it's readable. If not readable, request for replacement.

3. After 2 to 3 days, go to any UnionBank ATM. Check if your 500 pesos that you deposited will appear if you inquire for your balance. When you inquire for balance, choose Savings Account. You might also want to change your PIN. Just follow the instruction in the ATM machine on how to change PIN.

4. If your 500 pesos appeared in your ATM when you inquired for Balance, you could now register/enroll for EON CyberAccount Online Banking. Find the EON CyberAccount Online Banking in UNION Bank's main page. Google the website of Union Bank by using 'Union Bank Philippines' as your keyword in www.google.com.

During registration, you will be asked to provide your preferred User ID. Don't forget your preferred User ID for you will use it to login and access your EON CyberAccount.
