    Leave it in the UK and use Transferwise to send to Philippines bank, quick and cheap, I've had money arrive within minutes.

    No UK address so you cannot have UK account.

    I've started having issues with my usual remittance routes. Many of the cash-pick points I use are no longer available via Worldremit.
    Also last time I used Worldremit I waited over 2 days for them to process...I'm currently looking for short term solutions in case our lockdown continues beyond Aprl 30

    I use Transferwise to send money over to the Philippines, I dont know if this is what you are looking for Peter, I did try to open an account with Worldremit some years ago but they refused my application, cant remember the reason now.. but hey its there loss..
