I followed the steps at the Pag-IBIG website, submitted the application form and uploaded everything they asked, then waited for feedback.
It's pretty straightforward once you get in the site. Of course, by government standards, the submit button may or may not work, and the page may show some mysterious error message, after which you'll get an SMS notification that you have successfully filed a claim.

Monday (July 27) afternoon I got a text that my claim was rejected.
I followed the site to check the details, but as usual, the success rate of interacting with any government site is 50% and I wasn't able to get anywhere with my query.
Luckily, my Pag-IBIG branch emailed me with the reason why. I forgot to put in my date of birth, and they do not allow e-signatures.
SM Aura branch is where I opened my UnionBank Loyalty Card Plus.
