I know each office works differently but at the Sta Rosa satellite office I tried to hand them my copies and passport and all they wanted to see was the ACR_I card. After checking their list on the computer, handed the card right back. No mate i`m on a 13a they have always kept the PP at Dumaguete office as long as I can remember.They have strange rules which people elsewhere don`t have to abide by. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So your 4 minutes is actually 4 days? Am I sat there for 4 days no. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Support Mike J Posted January 12, 2018 Forum Support Posted January 12, 2018 Did mine at the J Mall in Cebu City on the 9th. Arrived about 10AM and took 35-40 minutes. By the time I left the lines had really grown and the room was packed to overflowing. Best to get there early, you can use the elevator in the parking garage to go up before the mall opens.

Howard Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 I did mine in Manila on Monday and luckily I did save and bring my receipt from last year because when the guy bought me up on the computer he made like a concerned face and asked if I had done it last year. He actually looked a little surprised when I said yes, here's the receipt. He took it and said OK it's updated in the computer system, go over there and pay...In and out in like 20 minutes. I look forward to going there once a year and getting a burger at the place inside the building, I think they are the best burgers I have had in the Philippines! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After I complete the first part (ACR #, Name, etc) and hit submit, it asks if I want to save, I say yes, then it comes up with a "Error in saving, contact administrator" message. I can't get past the first page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
