Metrobank Server Failure

How about not having any access to any Metrobank atms, or even other atms, for more than 24 hours already? What if it is the only bank that you have an account for your money savings and nothin else? What will happen if your infant is running out of milk supply and you don't have credit cards with you? What if you got emergency financial obligations but you cannot withdraw from the funds of your account because the server nationwide is down? What will you do? Borrow money? But the thing is, you can't always rely on other people's help if they too are experiencing dilemma with you.

See, Metrobank, Philippines? This is the first time that we encountered your system offline for more than 24 hours. It is a hassle that can do affect many people's financial dilemma. You can't even take the simple protocol of providing advisory to your loyal customers. This is one thing that could've stopped us from fearing wondering what really happened behind this fiasco.

Did you, guys, have your main server or system attacked by suspicious/illegal transactions? Or did that system failed because of a huge net virus and abruptly corrupted your database and files? Whatever it is, inform us that we can't do transactions with you because your server is down! It is one little thing that you owe us and could help us big in these difficult times...

So, because this unwanted failure can occur anytime in the future, I am thinking now of using other bank services, which can allow us to shop or spend when we ran out of cash and no ATM machines dispense money. Well, credit cards are the perfect prospect for now, right? So, okay, I'm going to check what banks offer the best credit card services.
