So if you're like me you sometimes have to send some funding overseas to friends or family. I've done it many ways, but in the recent past my service of choice, RemitHome, was consumed by transfast. The new outfit seemed not as good, but the rate was fine and they had no obvious issues so I let inertia rule and continued to use them. Until yesterday. Raise your hand if you know what a phishing scam looks like. I went to log in yesterday, and a page that said "we have sent you an email" opened, and I couldn't access the site. The email asked me to click a magic link and then the resul

The dream awaits...the rush to a tropical island for love and life. You come to this forum for information and there is much here both good and bad. As someone who has lived here for many years I wanted to offer 1 piece of economic advice. It might not be what you want to hear, it is a sort of warning, but important to know. If you are packing all your bags and getting on the plane and plan to live here without either a pension or plenty of money in the bank you maybe in trouble.

A collection of tips for living in The Philippines from Reddit. If you're a Globe postpaid subscriber and have been paying upwards of 2500 on your monthly bill for the past year or more, you've probably been upgraded to Globe Blue. You can call customer service to confirm. Once verified, you can start using 199 (instead of their usual CSR number) for any customer service concerns. This is a streamlined version of their IVR. Just two steps and you're routed straight to a Platinum CSR. Buy your rice in a neighbouring canderia before going to your fast food place of choice. Beer befo

How much do the Filipinos need to get those requirements to find a job? They need Medical clearance NBI clearance Barangay clearance Letter from the Mayor and what else?

http://worldobserveronline.com/2013/10/04/man-lives-without-money/ Irishman Mark Boyle tried to live life with no income, no bank balance and no spending. Here’s how he finds it.

The plan back then was to get a ‘good’ job, make as much money as possible, and buy the stuff that would show society I was successful. For a while I did it – I had a fantastic job managing a big organic food company; had myself a
