what do you meen by remittance companies.sorry if im being stupid. im taking sterling for the visa and holiday because last time my visa debit card would not work in the atm's and i got a bit stuck. my main prob was changing 500 sterling into peso with money changer (bad idea imo). theres a metro bank near robinsons mall in makati so i was gonna get taxi with 500 in my pocket to robinsons then just go to bank but i dont know if they take sterling for visa or if they change money.never been in a bank in phili. so hows it work with the remittance companies
