Send money from AU to Phil

sohc

Ask ko lang what is the best way to send money from AU to Phil? Also kailangan ba alam ng recipient kung magkano. I want to surprise my mom in Phil. Thanks!

forexworld ang gamit ko. bale may first time enrolment then transfer ka lang ng money sa acct nila then email mo ang recipient details and within 3 hours nandun na sa acct sa pinas ung money. pero pag outside metro manila ata mas matagal. eto yung link:

Hi, sorry for bringing back this old thread pero gusto ko lang humingi ng update kung anung ok na remittance company for sending aud to ph. I was looking at forexworld pero hindi secure ang website nila so concern ako of giving my details online. Has anyone tried iremit? Grabe kasi yung taas ng filipino store sa area namin from $10 yung service fee ngaun $15 na. Anu pa yung pwede nyong ma-recommend. Salamat.

how about citibank sir? may free transfer ata sila from oz to other participating citi branches.

http://www.citibank.com.au/aus/international_banking/transferring_money.htm or i maybe wrong, hehehe. kung may citi dyan, tanong ka muna tungkol dito. and balitaan mo kami.

Mayroon dito dating advertisement sa forum, iremit ata yun? Mataas palitan nila ng dolyar sa piso kaya mas malaki yung napapadala mo 🙂

@Bryan

Going thru banks would be the safest and yet would be the most expensive, hence hindi sya value for money, besides wla akong napapansin na citigroup dito sa brisbane tska baka ipag-open pa nila ako ng account. I've tried citigroup, sweldo ko sa bpi manila tapos withdraw ko sa tokyo branches so same day transaction. Mahal din ang withrawal fee nila sa Tokyo kaya iwas muna ako sa citibank/group. Thanks for the input though.

@LokiJr

Nagpunta ako sa website nila, its not the most 'customer-friendly' site. Hangang ngaun hindi ko alam kung paano magpadala ng money. Products, service fees, contacts and news events lang yung makikita mu sa website. Hindi man lang sila nag-allocate ng menu for new customers or 'paano magremit process' dun sa website nila.

Or baka bulag lang ako kaya hindi ko makita yung instruction sa i-remit. Any feedback from this company?

@Davidx23 : im from SG and yung pinakasikat na remittance center dito ay ang iRemit. so i would say na safe itong iRemit kung meron dyan sa oz. 🙂

Bryan

@Davidx23 ganon po ba. salamat sa info!!

Yung orbit remit kaya? paano malaman kung secure ang site nila? mas mababa lang nga exchange rate compared to forexworld.

I used i-remit twice ok naman, fast and easy.
