Philippine bank accounts.

that depends where your living and what banks are available  there -why dont you enquire from your pension company or bank -what options they can give.

I asked my bank in the U.S. and was told I needed to open an account in the Philippines and give them in the U.S., the account number. Then, I can transfer funds from my account there to my account in the Philippines.It has to be approved and set up with your bank in the Philippines first. None of the companies I do work for, regardless of the country of origin, would do direct deposit straight to my Philippine account. Now, I just know there will be some that will comment on this and tell me I'm wrong that I can do this and do that. BUT, this is what has been told to me from my bank in the states. I'm going with what they tell me.

I been using xoom.com to transfer my money for the last 5 years I never had an issue with them... it takes just a few seconds and cost 5 dollars..

just transfer the money in ur aussie bank to yourself in the Philippines.  its paid in pesos and you can pick it up in many locations here or they will deliver it to your door for no extra charge

I had a bdo bank acct here, and it was nothing but trouble..  much easier to keep ur acct in aus and transfer money to urself here
