As this thread is about money, can I ask 2 questions:-
1) Is it better to take pounds and change money there, as I was getting a lower exchange rate than it was showing on the net, or change here and take there. Do some exchange booths give a better rate than others?
2) What would I need to open a bank account in the Philippines and can I open a joint one with my partner?
Thank you for the answers.![]()
