Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why don't I see my VJD tracking code immediately after cashing out?
Palawan Express cash outs process in scheduled batches. Upon creating your request, you will initially receive a Dragonpay reference number (starting with FT). Your actual Palawan tracking code (starting with VJD) will be generated and sent via SMS/Email once the batch processing cut-off (1:00 PM daily) is cleared.
2. What if I don't have two valid IDs?
It is highly recommended to bring two valid IDs to ensure processing. If you cannot provide two IDs, you may speak directly with the Palawan Express branch staff regarding alternative identity verification methods accepted by their branch.
3. Can I use an expired ID to claim my cash out?
No. All IDs presented to the branch teller must be valid, active, and unexpired. Expired IDs will be rejected during teller verification.
4. Can someone else claim my money for me?
Generally, no. For security and anti-fraud purposes, the full name on the presented valid IDs must strictly match the recipient name specified in the Coins.ph transaction details.
5. Can I claim my remittance at any Palawan Express branch?
Yes! Palawan Express transactions can be claimed at any of their 3,000+ branches and authorized agent locations nationwide, provided you have your VJD... tracking code, expected amount, and valid IDs.
