I've lived in Philippines going on 4 years.
When I opened my account, only ACR was needed, as stated. My visa status has since changed, however, to be easier for my long term stay and perhaps permanent stay and naturalization, but I haven't decided about that yet.
It very much depends on the bank though. One tip: don't bother with BPI. They don't want foreign account holders and have tons of requirements, including a letter of recommendation from your previous bank...when I heard this requirement I just left because it was one out of ten for foreign account holders.
Security Bank, BPO and Metrobank are much more likely to accept you, besides being better banks in general.
