MERGED: All about ODESK...

[8_cRawlin_baby_8]

OT: i have Unionbank EON, BDO, and BPI link to my Paypal as my savings account. i have Citibank, HSBC, Metrobank, and Unionbank EON as my credit and debit card respectively.

i stop using Unionbank after ni-bounce akong gi withdraw and paypal charge me P250. and i think this problem is still being experienced by some. i only use Unionbank as a debit card if naa koy ipurchase and instantly pay the item.

if you have EON, naa ra nimo which type, as a debit card or as a savings account. whatever that suits you.

as for me, i don't mind paying the fees incurred i've mentioned as long as way technical prob masugatan, unlike EON makulbaan ka pirmi (base on my own personal experience and other fellow ebay sellers).

as for the payoneer mastercard, i'm not interested of having one anymore.

just my 2 cents.

Crawlin baby, naa koy pangutana. Ako gamit kay EON sa Unionbank. Then, na link na naq sa akong Paypal. Unsa d.ae mas maayo, i-transfer sa bank or i-transfer sa card? Kay sa bank, PHP50 ra man gud compared sa $5 kung sa card. Kung i-transfer sa bank mo-appear ra man gihapon na sa 'savings' sa imong card, diba? Or sayop ko? Naglibog ko. Enlighten me, please.

this is just a piece of information that I want to share
to everyone who are new to Odesk..

pero so far I have not encountered any problems
with paypal going to my EON acct.

just my 2 cents as well..

Happy Earning to all!

og naa kay Paypal, i-link na sa imong oDesk. pwede nimo makuha imong sweldo to any Philippine Savings Account.

I just withdrew my first oDesk salary sa BPI gahapon. 2 days ra, transfer nako from odesk to paypal to BPI pag wednesday, nireflect sa akong account Saturday (gahapon).

and here are the fees incurred:

oDesk to Paypal = $1
Paypal to Bank = P50
BPI charges = P150

akong payoneer mastercard nawala na siguro to. last May pa ko ni order until now wala pa.

so dapat jud diay bpi noh? hmmm so in totallity mga 350 tanan fees noh? dakoa pud oi.. pero ill try..

Ahhh. Nya, PHP50 ra man ang charge nu? Cge, mao pud ni gi-suggest ni crawlin baby. Kay ana cya, mo-reflect ra daw diritso sa Savings. Abi nako kailangan jud i-transfer sa card. So, pde ra d.ae i transfer sa bank nya makita man ghapon na sa imong savings diba?

mao pud na ako gibuhat. transfer to bank account, ma dretso na nah reflect sa imu savings acct. if mag withdraw ka 7k plus free ra ang transfer.

so far wala ko na encounter probs sa eon pud, unlike sa uban gipang mention sa taas. but nag plan ko mag bpi pud para other transactions kaso medyo dako2 ba ang money kelangan para maka open ug acct? ang 150 charges sa bpi, every withdrawal ba nah xa?

No, until July na lang tong existing Debit mastercard nila kay nag
change man guro to sila ug partner. If you want to get the new card
login lang sa imong acct sa payoneer nya naa form didto kung mo request
kag another card (kadtong bago na)..

July 15 man guro to kutob and current nila nga card.. after that dili na to
siya magamit.

Sakto gyud ka. Pero in terms of practicality lang, lisud na kaayo mangita ug buyer nga $20 diritso labi na first job. To others, it's not just about the feedbacks. We all know it matters but the thing is, they don't really care as long as they get the job. I mean, like, "Ay, gamyun lang sa nako ug hourly rate kay beginner pa bitaw ko." Ila ning gibuhat para sila ang mapili, kay lagee, what matters to them is 'just' to get a job. But dili man pud na mo stop diha, kung magkadugay, pde ra man sad nimo padak-an imong hourly rates.

Kinsa man sad mo-dawat ug provider nga dako'g pangayoon ug hourly rate then bati kaayo ug profile/resume? Diba wala man? That's why mo-start jud na sa gamay. And sooner or later, diha na na maka-bawi. I'm not saying this because I'm pro-lower rates nor an anti. It's just that, mo-start man gyud ta sa gamay. Di man ta makatilaw diritso sa lami kung di ta magsugod sa bati. That's just my two cents though.

thats not the case before nangabot ang mga indians, pakistanis, bangladeshis ug uban pilipino sauna. 4 of my friends tried our luck in odesk with big rates and all of us got jobs with those rates and without even thinking of getting feedbacks. feedback was just a plus for us if we were given. we didnt think of getting feedbacks just to lure clients. we used our comprehensive resumes and very effective cover letters to convince them. naa rana sa taw unsaun pag diskarte sa customer. nya ang pamaagi nga paubsan imu rate para maka feedback, kinsa man ang pildi? ang provider ra. nya some might think after getting feedbacks, maka saka sila sa ila rate?? nah, chances are slim kung ka kuha ka balik ug work. kung kakuha man gani ka, still at very low rates. and basin nag huna2 pud uban diha maka increase ila rates sa ila exisiting clients, im sure mu palag jud ang client nganu ni increase ka. gikuha gani ka kay barato ka and sort of a "suki" thing nya mang increase na nuon ka. mao nana diha ang lisod. you expect to get jobs with higher pay from new clients pero mao lage kayod napud kag apply para maka earn. and now you will feel nga maka ingun ka "grabeha pud aning uban oi gagmay kaayo ug rate". tuyok2 rana. hehehe feedbacks dont talk to clients but rather you as the provider will do the talking on how you will tackle his project. lahi ra ang mentality sa buyers sauna compared karun sukad nangabot nang mga indio nga ga offer ug gamay nga rates.

dont make odesk as your primary job. the pay might be good but you dont have the benefits.

another friend of mine resigned in his job just to concentrate in odesk. he was lucky as hell as he gets invited in a company and was earning almost 30 to 40k pesos a month. with his earnings, he gets to loan a house and car. nindot kaayo iya kinabuhi. pero after almost a year, ang iya company gi apilan sa odesk na disband. probably losing clients to those "hire me for $1 and give me feedback" people. iya kwarta nag hinay2 ka hurot. gibaligya ang balay, ang sakyanan ug uban butang niya kay di na sya makabayad. luoy tawn kaayo nya karun nangita na balik ug trabaho. namatay jud ang way of earning sa odesk tungod anang mga ga $1 diha.

pero naa rana ninyo tanan unsa inyo diskarte. kung gusto mo ubos rates para maka feedback hala sige buhata. in the long run maka feel ra nya mo kung unsa ka hasol ug unsa ka sayang.
