Hi, I'm just going through the process of acquiring an SRRV permit to relocate to the Philippines and have a banking question. Does anyone know if there are banks in the Philippines that offer foreign currency accounts that allow debit/credit card banking in those currencies. For example a GBP denominated account that allows GBP card/online transactions for when I'm in the UK etc. I've tracked down a USD banking account at Union Bank however, all the other banks seem to only offer foreign currency savings accounts without the add on banking functions. Would appreciate any information you can provide.

Thanks

Thanks insite. If I'm not mistaken they need a working deposit of PHP3,000,000? If that's the case it's too high for me. I should have mentioned that in my initial post. Apologies for that.
