As life is to live so love is to give
I'm currently trying to find someone who will change a few hundred pounds up here for when I go, but they are only offering around 67 peso to the £
i just send now and its zerofees worldremit
A place for everything, everything in its place.
well i got 10% of the cost , so i am happy, its better then western union anyday
The only pesos I take IN to the Phils are the ones I was left with previous trip.
I just change enough at the moneychanger on the way out of the airport building to pay for a taxi to my hotel, and perhaps for the hotel first night, then change some more (£s) at a moneychanger near the hotel, next day. Better rate than the airport, and certainly MUCH better than anything you'll get in the UK.
I've always found that the exchange rates at the airport exit to be very reasonable.
Not the very best, maybe, but highly comparable and not a rip off.
Depends how much Peso cash you've got in your pocket and how easy it is to find another reasonable exchange opportunity. Minimise risks.
I aim to load up my Caxton card, I just wanted a couple of hundred pounds to see me ok for the initial couple of days.
