Last time I went to the Philippine embassy to get my OEC, I was given this sheet containing a link to “www.bmonline.ph“.

The lady advised me to start using this website as the embassy will soon stop processing manual applications and everything will be done online. Problem is, it seems I cannot connect to the website. I trade last year (December 2015) and I tried again this year (January 2016) and I get the same error message.

Doesn’t matter when I try from Safari or from Chrome or even from my iPhone, I get the same message. I do have friends who have successfully used the service, so I’m guessing I am doing something wrong here.
Has the link changed?
