Just carried out a transfer using PNB europe. Sent £500.00 (£505.50 with charges at 2%), exchange rate of 66.30, 33150.00 will land in the philippines.
Actually cheaper by Western Union at the moment! If you sent 33,150PHP by WU right now it would cost £498.03p. No fees and exchange rate @ 66.5623656.
Just seen that other post. I'm not a fan of western union to be honest as I've heard a few bad things in the past regarding their security checks of people going and getting money that wasn't theres. For the sake of 7 quid I've got piece of mind that the money is direct to the nominated persons bank account.
