Right now, it is the other way around... Since bumagsak substantially ang AUD against USD, this would mean a stronger profit for these companies if you convert their income back to AUD.
Having said this, a weaker dollar may also have some other cons like it would be more expensive to travel, gasoline might become more expensive and stuffs from abroad may be more expensive as well...
To put it this way, double edge sword ang topic ng currency appreciation/depreciation...

@iremit_australia, may tanong ako. Gaano katagal ang padala sa inyo? Sa ForexWorld kasi, 3 hours max, nasa cebu na. Ask ko lang ha, kasi ok yung $4 fee niyo eh. Every month, or evey 2weeks ako nagpapadala.

Oh! Kala ko kailangan ng certified true copy. Sayang sana pala nagpadala nako last week. Bumaba na exchange rate ngaun.
Pano pala un kunyari nagtransfer ako ngaun from my bank account to your bank account, anong gagamitin na exchange rate, ung rate po ngaun or ung rate pag nacredit sa account nyo ung pera.
Thanks
