By manager's cheque obtained from any bank registered in the Philippines. Cheques should be made payable to the 'British Embassy'. Only managers' cheques with the correct fee and payable to 'British Embassy' will be accepted. There is a bank charge when you purchase a manager's cheque which varies from bank to bank. You should ensure that you obtain a receipt.
after reading this below, i said to my wife to make the fee payable to the vfs services philippines private inc, i only said to put this because there is no mention of who to make the visa fee to further down the page, and my wife had the go and get another manergers cheque and pay again, wife said im stupid hehe, im dissaponted that im finding it so hard to find the correct infomation,
also my wife has only taken pictures of the front of the cards, i know this is not good and that they need coppies of what is written, as far as they are conserned they is nothing written inside the cards, am i rite or wrong, but my wife will be suplying the original cards anyway.

Tony, for the visa fee, the manager's checque should be payable to BRITISH EMBASSY only..do not confuse it with the VIP premium lounge service..you will be able to pay P1800 in cash for the VIP premium lounge at the vfs..the vfs employee would collect P1800 from you after you've given all the docs and the biometrics..
Just spotted the problem.
The VIP lounge fee of 1800 is paid to VFS directly on the day.
The visa fees managers cheque is made payable to the embassy.
Tony as we've said before copy everything. No it's not good enough, to send the original card, then just make a copy of the front of the card...What was written in the card, is proof of your relationship.
I know it's getting you down, but everybody feels like that. It's hard trying to find all of the info. I kept running out of ink, when I copied all my docs out, plus stayed up all night, one night to finish copying them, as I needed to send them to the Philippines next day...Good communication & support, between you & your wife is what you want, to get through this.
You're nearly there.
thankyou so much guys, all is ok now, she has took pics of whats written inside the cards, but she says its too small to read, it hard formy wife because she has to travel to the cafe to use there printer
Same here. My wife had to go to a copying shop as her printer is very unreliable....
Tony, it's been a long hard road for you. Most members here know that.
I really do send all my best wishes and best prayers for the best outcome.
Everyone's rooting for you both.
