- We all do it...don't we? Well, I do, anyway! Arrive in a new country and get confused about the local currency and what each note is worth.
In this brief vlog I explain what the Philippine Peso notes are worth in UK pound and USD conversions. It's not meant to sound patronizing, coz I would have wanted to see a video like this before I arrived in Manila and it never does any harm to familiarize with the local currency before you start spending.
Hope this is useful and, if you're planning a trip to the Philippines, please refer back to this video to quickly remind you of the currency and what it's worth.
Thanks this was a very helpful tutorial to help us through our puzzlement regarding the Philippine currency!
Hi, Jimmy. May seem like a curious video, but you'd be amazed how many questions I get asked regarding currency in these countries.
I find it easier to think of it in USD (Even though I'm a Brit). $1 = roughly php 50. So php500 = roughly $10.
Great job breaking down Philippine Currency! I learned something new! :)
I thought it was a good idea to get familiar with the local Philippine currency. Always helps.
Very helpful 👍 and it’s you’re video so I’d watch what ever you put out mate
Cheers, mate.

Thanks for sharing Eddie!
Very useful
Very useful info as usual steady eddy
Thanks, Wayne.
Good info ...
Thanks for the informative video, do they take the dollar as well?
Don't know about dollars
Once you remember not to confuse the peso with the Thai baht, everything falls into place and you will notice how cheap it can be compared to Thailand.
This is true.
This video is quicker then when you dont take your precious blue pill.
Are there plenty of ATM machines Ed ??????
Hi, Kees. Yes, plenty of ATMs in the main towns. And very efficient, too.
Thanks Ed 👍👍👍👍👍
Useful if you've actually got Philippine Pesos. On route to Manilla I tried and failed miserably to obtain the Peso in Saigon. Doh! Cheers 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
best currency is australian plastic notes.not able to make fake.also can keep clean.
@roguemale TheOne&Only good to know.tnx.
In any of your travels, would you ever recommend using a credit card?
Hi, David. I would only use a credit card for hotels, personally. Never for bars, restaurants or small transactions, though others would disagree.
How much is a normal score? I've never been. Cheaper than pattaya?
bet you wished you started going to the PI when it was 100peso to the pound
Unfortunately currency conversion has gotten way more complicated over the last 10 years or so for us Brits, when pesos used to equal pennies. Great days back then.
the 50 and 20 notes look familiar to me, so maybe they were around in the eighties, not sure though! on the 500 note, the photo shows the Aquino couple, i reckon. thumb up #128
Hi, Pique. This thing you have to be concerned with is the similarity between the 100 and the 1000. Easy mistake to make.
2024 exchange rate 1 UK Pound = p71.5.. 👍
.......Laughing my *ss off at the comment below...."Not enough skin in this video"........🤣🤣🤣
I agree, Lonnie. I think he's suggesting that the next time I do a video about currency I should get naked!
@@STEADY599 You mean you weren't.
👍❤️🏴🍻🍺🇬🇧
more easy than Cambodia currency haha
Yes I know exactly what Philippines peso looks like I have been many times so it must be your first time going to the Philippines ha?
Yep. I look at every thousand bill like a 20 dollar bill. Hey look! The rare green 200! I tip to my American standards so its 500s for everyone, waitresses and hotel staff alike.
You are a good man, Eddy. I always tip the maids.
Always get confused with you guys quids and pounds I know the US dollar
