Two days ago, I was so annoyed with BDO again. One of my pet peeves is inefficient service and senseless policies. I was trying to log in to my online banking, and I was given the following “options”. I decided to waive (updating my) password (waive password does not make sense, like I want to do away with the whole password thing?). If I was not frustrated, I would have laughed! It was like, “gotcha!” Are you freaking kidding me right?
I tried to rebel by holding out as long as I could, but of course I needed to do stuff, so in the end, I gave in and changed my password. The following day, I saw this on my Facebook news feed:
I immediately logged in (using biometrics, what is my new password again?) to check if my P5M is intact. I’m glad to find out nobody dared touch what little I have got left. This incident reminded me to see the bigger picture. I mean, sure it would have been way less exasperating if the bank asked us to change passwords instead of giving us non-existing options.
When I feel down sometimes, I try to force myself to see the bigger picture. That what is happening right now is a part of a grand scheme of things. That someday, all the dots will connect and I will realize that what happened needed to happen. I am grateful I am trying to look past what is right in front of me.
Does it feel like nothing makes sense right now?

One my bank needed me to do that every time I logged in via internet banking. Note I do it through their app where they have double verification system.

That is insane!!! How do you keep track of all that passwords?! And they ask old password before we can create a new one.

So inconvenient! Have you tried biometrics? Or still the same, have to change every log in?

One of the app works with face recognition. The other I need to put in the password.

Yeah the problem with face recognition is if someone knows and tries to access while you’re sleeping maybe. I don’t know… lol
