A Simple Guide on How to Get Your EON CyberAccount

In connection with my previous blog, you need to have a way to get paid online. Having a Paypal account is one good option. For Filipinos out there who are looking into having your own Paypal account, I highly recommend applying for an EON CyberAccount which you can link to your Paypal.

These are the things you needed to do:
1. Visit any Unionbank branch near you.
2. Present 2 valid IDs
3. Fill out the Application Form. You may need to provide your TIN and SSS Number.
4. Wait a week for your card to arrive.Get it from the same Unionbank branch you have submitted your application to. You need to be the one to get your card.
5. You need to pay for the annual fee of Php350. There is no initial deposit but it is good to have at least Php200 for linking your account to Paypal. This is just a way of Paypal to check that the card is valid. They will not get the Php200 from your account. Paypal only charged my EON Php100, but it will be refunded back after you verify your card.
6.Wait 24 hours to have your PIN changed using any Unionbank ATM.
7. Go to their website: http://www.unionbankph.com and click on EON CyberAccount.
8. You will need to enter you 16-digit card number and PIN.
9. Fill out the Online Application Form. Make sure that the information is the same as the one you have submitted before.
10. Wait 2 business days for the bank to verify your online account information.
11. Start using your EON CyberAccount. You are now ready to link it to your Paypal account. Note: EON has a Paypal Guide link on their website which you might want to check out as well.

A Road to Financial Freedom - Online Jobs

Are you tired of your monotonous daytime job? Are you a victim of office politics and no matter what you do you can't seem to get that promotion even though you know you deserve it more than the others they choose to be your superiors? Then this blog might be helpful to you too.

After a lot of ranting about how my day went at work, my boyfriend asked me if I was familiar with Odesk. I said "no". He said it was a site where I can find online jobs. Not the shady ones. These are real people. Real Employers. Real Contractors. Real money-making alternative.

What you need?
1. If you are in the Philippines like me, I suggest that you get an EON account from Unionbank. Why? Because you will need this to follow Step No. 2.
2. You will need to set up your Paypal account using your EON account or any other credit cards that they accept.
3. You will need to register on Odesk. You may click on this:

4. Build your Odesk Profile and take the test to be "Odesk Ready".

5. Set up your payment method for you to get paid.

6. Find the jobs you like and apply.

7. Build your reputation as an Odesker by doing good at the jobs you choose to work on.

8. And the best part, EARN EXTRA MONEY!
