🚀 We’re Upgrading the Mothership!
Our site is moving to a shiny new platform.
The engines are warming up, the crew is busy, and it may take a little while ⏳.
Sit tight, we’ll be back better, faster, and cooler than ever. 🌌
Hey Everyone! Admin here, It's a bit overdue but I will be migrating our forum site to a new platform for better security. I will take out all the ads as well as these pesky spammers. Please expect a bit of issues here and there, and will slowly move the features to the new one. Don't worry we are very much alive and will be alive as long as I'm here :)
Moving to Australia this June 2021. Should I transfer all my savings from PH to AUS?

I moved everything from BPI to NAB via wire transfer.
You can pick any of the big 4, I like NAB because they have zero fees and zero maintaining requirements

Then ask your PH bank to wire transfer everything, this is the BPI form I used:

You need to know when and where you'll arrive, as wandererPH said you need to pick a branch and physically get your debit card.
