    New pick-up locations in the Philippines

    Over a thousand NEW locations

    We are excited to announce more than a thousand NEW cash pick-up locations in the Philippines.

    From today, your recipients can collect their money from any branch of PS Bank and Palawan Pawnshop. All they need to do is ask for “Metrobank” and quote our 8-digit reference number.

    In addition to the new pick-up locations, they can also go to any branch of Metrobank, LBC, MLhuillier Kwarta Padala, Cebuana Lhuillier and Banco de Oro (BDO).

    WorldRemit is all about making life easier for our customers and their friends and family abroad. We hope that you love these latest improvements to our service in the Philippines.

    Best wishes,
    The WorldRemit team

    Branch finders on http://www.psbank.com.ph/ and the 'Search Location' on http://www.palawanpawnshop.com/

    World Remit also do cash payout at Cebuana L'Hullier, MLHullier, LBC, Metrobank and BDO, this is cash payout at any branch of these organisations anywhere in the country.

    The list is available without signing up, you just have to say where you want to send to and how you want the money paid out.

    All of those organisations also have branch finders on their websites.

    Oh and transfers to Metrobank bank accounts are usually completed in less than 5 minutes, i.e. you send on the website and the money is in the Metrobank account less than 5 minutes later.

    As I understand it, Kevin, yes this is possible. I take it that what you need is cash delivered to you?

    I will check this out tomorrow and get back to you.

    Kevin hope you don't mind but I lifted this from your FB page (I have deleted the address as this is a public forum):

    " I need favour from you guys, im asking the parole and pardons board for executive clemency. My papers are with them as i write, i have advice from an ex warden here who also passed his bar exam that if your on parole or pardon the more letters of support you submit the more successfull you are. This is what i ask of yous guys please can you furnish me with letters of support. The letters should state, who you are, how you know me, that to the best of your knowledge i wont go back to bad, ect ect. Please do include Charlene in this coz as my co-accused she will be included. Please nothing like i knew Kevin as an old drunken bum haha. But seriusly the more better the better chance we goto get home next year. Please do not email them as the p&p board require hard copyies with signitures, so you can send straight to me at (address deleted by Methersgate) Or those who know my father can pass them onto him to forward to me. Thanks alot freinds. God bless."

    Would letters from us help?

    WorldRemit are very good but Western Union (much as I hate them) are currently giving a better exchange rate and a much lower transfer fee from the UK, it makes a difference on moderately large transfers.

    If the local LBC don't do Western Union then WorldRemit are good, the following image gives the options for Cash Pickup transfers from WorldRemit.

    I've used these guys for years to send cash to support my kids.

    I've found a LBC send money abroad link on facebook, haven't tried it yet but seems working. £300=P21.000, each rate P71 to £, £3 to send. All done online via bank or ccard. But the magic is door to door delivery this end.

    @kevin taylor

    World Remit do offer home delivery. An even cheaper service by https://azimo.com also provide home delivery to The Philippines but this can take up to five days (depending on how far the prison is away from a major conurbation) You will also need to take delivery personally and sign for that delivery.
