What is the ATM withdrawal limit? On my last visit quite a few machines declined my card, but would then be OK the next day I tried (same ammount in my account). I was thinking next time I may just withdraw a larger ammount to save any trouble. At one point I was down to my last few pesos, praying the machine would cough up. Luckily it did.

I think in the Phils, maximum withdrawal is P5k each time - then maximum of P20k per day. We bought a laptop in the Phils when we went travelling in 2007 and was able to withdraw 4 lots of P5k in one day

Here in England I think it's £200 per day, although I can't remember as I have not had that much money available for me to withdraw in one day in such a long time. LOL

Four years ago in Manila I found that different bank's ATMs would pay out different amounts. With some I had to make several withdrawals, one after the other, to draw the daily maximum allowed by my bank in UK. HSBC were the only bank that allowed me to draw all my daily max in one go.
