Contrasting Presidency



I may not agree with everything she did or didn't do,
but at least she did something.

Gabriela party list Representative Luz Ilagan said “contrasting” the two women Presidents would be more appropriate than “comparing” them.

True,even the man behind her.

Barangay



They will go to your house in an intimidating manner.
They will pretend to be Fiscal Ek-ek or Attorney C.Mission; or
SPO 1 Mando Rugas. and lately,they are using the Barangay!

What they do? nothing much. just give you that 1/4 shit of paper to
call Atty/Fiscal/Judge/SPO (lahat na ata)otherwise you will have a
case( and they will have the cash).
Guess who is on the other line to answer you? why, Mr. Collector

Swiped Away


There are about 6.5 million credit cards held by four million users in the country, according to data from the Credit Card Association of the Philippines (CCAP). Credit card receivables reached P130.billion last year, P15 billion of which turned out to be bad accounts.

"The failure of these credit card firms to respond to the BSP rate cuts brings to mind what Mr. Jun Lozada was once told by a ranking official: moderate their greed,"
- Sen. Chiz Escudero

A Tragic Love Story


Many times, I wished you were here,
Many nights I wished you would be mine.
Then finally, one afternoon, I just cant believe it.
I am holding you.
'Twas a happiness I simply cant describe.

The ensuing days would have me spending the whole day with you.
A splurge. As if our days wont last without it.
Finally, I realized to my regret - I can no longer afford you
anymore.

Sorry.But as they say "The trouble with Hello is Goodbye".
Leaves me no other choice but to finally say "goodbye".
It hurts. Was tragic, I guess. But I have no choice.
I have to face reality.

I have to give you up.
I have to cut our relationship.
I have to cut you, my beloved Credit Card.

RA 8484 Part II



Please post your query on RA 8484 HERE.

Salamat.

RA 8484 Simplified


Note : for your query, please e-mail us instead


What RA 8484 is talking about :

Section 3. Definition of Terms.

(b) Counterfeit Access Device
(c) Unauthorized Access Device
(d) Access Device Fraudulently Applied for
(g) Device Making or Altering Equipment

Why, it is actually talking about faking cards! After faking a card, one uses it.
then,disappears.

Thus:

Section 9. Prohibited Acts.
(j)obtaining money or anything of value through the use of an access device, with intent to defraud or with intent to gain and fleeing thereafter;

What are the indications that you got that motive?

Section 14. Presumption and Prima Facie Evidence of Intent to Defraud:

A cardholder who abandons or surreptitiously leaves the place of employment, business or residence stated in his application or credit card:

a.without informing the credit card company of the place where he could actually be found
b.if at the time of such abandonment or surreptitious leaving, the outstanding and unpaid balance is
-past due for at least ninety (90) days and
-is more than Ten thousand pesos (P10,000.00)

shall be prima facie presumed to have used his credit card with intent to defraud.

What is abandonment or surreptitious leaving? Basa.

Abandonment is that to which a person has voluntarily relinquished possession without vesting ownership to any other person. Umalis ng walang paalam.

leaving surrept.. what? kinda tongue twister here. basa.

adj. - Conducted with or marked by hidden aims or methods; Marked by quiet and caution and secrecy.

Why would he do that?
Because in the first place, he faked his cards!

Now, go tell that to Mr. Collector.
