"Is it allowed by BPI to use two ATM cards with the same account number? I want to use one for me and one for my mother. Both atm card should have the same account number or one account number."
Answer
You may choose to open a BPI joint ATM-based account so you and your mother will be issued ATM cards that are linked to the same account number. Kindly note that when you open a joint account, both accountholders should be present at the branch upon account opening. You may visit any of BPI/BPI Family bank branches and bring the following requirements:
- at least 1 valid ID per accountholder (ie. passport, SSS ID, driver's license, etc)
- Php 500 Initial Deposit Requirement for a regular ATM Savings account
- two 1x1 ID picture per accountholder
- contact numbers
Please note that the maintaining balance for the joint-account is Php 3,000 for BPI and Php 1,000 for BPI Family Savings Bank.
