Folded P1K rejected by a famous milk tea shop
FOLDED NEW 1K – A netizen took to social media wherein she expressed her disappointment after a famous milk tea shop refused to accept her ‘folded’ P1000 bill.
It was just recently when a certain Ar De Ma went to Facebook wherein she posted a rant against a famous milk tea shop. According to her, it was her first time to encounter a should that doesn’t accept a folded 1,000 polymer banknote.
In her post, she asked netizens if the new bill could be folded. Then she added that if it is prohibited, one should bring a book or envelope in which the money should be placed rather than the wallet.
In the final section of her post, she asked netizens if the establishment that refused to accept the folded P1000 bill could face a complaint..
Here’s the post:
“First time nako maka encounter nga wala gidawat ang 1000 bill nga bag o kay napiko daw diri sa infinite tea. Bawal jud ba pik on ang bag o nga 1000 bill? Kung bawal sato pa need ta ani magdala dala libro o envelope para ddto ibutang ang kwarta dili sa pitaka.
Kung madawat ra pwede ba nato ireklamo ang mga establishment nga dili modawat anang mga napiko nga bag o nga 1000 bill?”
Her post earned mixed reactions from the netizens. Here are the comments of some netizens:
Meanwhile, contrary to complaints made on social media about their folded polymer banknotes being rejected by malls and other establishments, the new P1,000 bill is still legal tender and should be accepted even if it is folded.
The Bangko Sentral ng Philippines (BSP) stated that wrinkled banknotes, whether made of paper or polymer, are still appropriate for use in transactions and should be accepted by banks and commercial organizations, particularly shops.
