Are you sure??...you need to consider the selling rate not the buying rate
I checked and its 0.014 PHP to a GBP:Erm:

0.014 is the equivalent to 71.4, with the official exchange rate at 73.5 or thereabouts it could be that you're both right, 71.4 buying and 76 selling :Erm:

It's only slightly more expensive doing it this way, here's an example
