I am not very happy ..exchange rate is 61.85 as of today.

Yesterday it dropped to 61.29

Lets hope it'll creep up a bit.
These political goings on in Italy have helped the pound from going below 60, but my guess is that is just a short term thing.
The only way for the pound is down

[melovesengland]

It was 60 The other day in WU when I checked it and 61.2 in BPI.

I was about to send some money for my mum as a birthday prezzie...looks like it'll have to wait till friday...

[han]

-sigh-
I'm hoping to get better value for my small amount of money as a b-day presents for my brother this coming 6 March
And in addition to that 9.90 fee in money gram...

To be honest, I doubt it will change much.
Better to look around for the best exchange rate with lowest fees.

Get that pressie sent, the difference in GBP will not be a great deal

[jonnijon]

Only 58-54 HSBC on Monday

What a pile of ..... I'll never forget around 100 pesos to the pound when i first ever went. And also how gutted i was when i went back and it was only 89 pesos. Since then it has been in freefall. really does make me mad. How can a currency drop by almost half in value against another?

[stevewool]

first time for me it was 66

[andy222]

Maybe its because osbourne lost our AAA rating. The scumbag.

[purple]

That's because Britain has been borrowing lots of money to give away to the EU neighbouring countries who came here and milk the system...just my stupid rants and opinions..

First time i went to the phils it was 100 peso to the pound we sill never see these rates again

[imagine]

I think the recent past movement was based mainly on the Peso strength against other currencies.. Now the Pound has dropped re AAA rating news and EU turmoil,Italian election B/S.. Blah bla bla..
Lowest Ive changed at was 12-1 and the highest was 108.00-1..
We changed quite a large sum a month ago and Im now wishing we cleaned out our UK accounts.
Oh well!!...Stiff upper lip and all that!!!
On wards and upwards!!...For the Peso anyway!

[jake]

Just came back form the bank and the manager reckons the rates are being manipulated by the BSP and they should be about 20% higher.
She told me a lot more but i didn't have a clue what it meant!
I moved what little money we had in the UK about 6 years ago at 96-1. Glad i did!

that was only about 5 or 6 years ago ,first time i went there 101 plus to the £, now look at it

[DaveW]

I will be back in Philippines next Tuesday, and will probably change my money up in Robinsons Manila. Hopefuly get around 60 only

[Michael Parnham]

Don't think it will get any better!

[stevie c]

Don't think it will get any better!

It certainly doesnt look like getting any better

[DaveUK]

We'll be going back in a few weeks for the first time since my wife arrived in the UK (3 years ago). The peso is now at it's worst since I've known her.

For me, the first time I went to the Philippines about 5 years ago, I think it was around 75/76 pesos to the pound, so the current rate is not as bad for me as it may be for some of the rest of you guys. Still hurts though!

[andy222]

I look at this way. I like others are supporting my wife in the phils in other words contributing to the phil economy. Wouldnt it be better being spent in this country? No wonder this country is in a mess.

[RickyR]

Thank my lucky stars that i'm paid in a dollar pegged currency, not often I've been able to say that in recent years.

I've just sold my house in Muscat, money should be coming over in 4-5 weeks time. So a weak pound is very good for me at the moment

[aug06_2006]

Back 2008 d £1 rate it was 87 pesos...

[fred]

According to the chart above,the best ever rate was PHP109.36. !

[jonnijon]
