Step 2. Log in using the username ebanking@metrobank.com.ph emailed and the password mailer the bank branch gave you.

Step 3
. Enter the institution/company you want to send the payment to, 
account number (not your Metrobank account but the account number for that company, e.g. account number in Globe, credit card number), and the amount you wish to pay. Reference No. is not required even though there is an asterisk beside that field.Step 4. Click Continue. Make sure all the information are correct before proceeding.


Step 5. Click Confirm if you are sure about all the information.
Step 6. Congratulations! You have now paid your bills online! You can hit Print if you want a copy of the transaction receipt.

How To Commute To Laguna From EDSA Using Public Tranport (Bus)?






There are numerous bus terminals in EDSA that can take you to Laguna. This post is specifically for commuters who would like to go to Calamba, Laguna or to Pansol, Laguna.

From EDSA, ride a bus bearing Calamba, Lucena, Lipa, or Batangas signboard. You can opt to ride a bus parked inside a terminal which waits for passengers or just wait by the side of the highway and hail one. Once inside, tell the conductor, you wish to be dropped by Turbina.

Upon reaching Turbina, cross the road to ride a jeepney bearing SM Calamba/Crossing signboard. You can ask the driver to drop you off at SM Calamba since it is the most known and safest place for tourist to start with.

There are many tricycles parked there that can take you to famous locations in the place (Rizal's Residence, Pasol Hot Springs). The fare is only P20 minimum if I am not mistaken.

Enjoy the travel and adventure! :)
