I think most of our banks accept bank transfer as long as you put the right SWIFT code and bank name and account number. The swift code would help facilitate the international transfer. I am using Land Bank, though i have not tried yet to withdraw my funds from moneybookers to my local bank account i am confident that it would be successful. I got my moneybookers account verified already. Just try to add your local bank to your moneybookers profile, if you can find a swift code for it. Then international bank transfer can be done.

hi ramon, I dont have any idea with your problem since I am new here, but I think you can use Unionbank.

Yes, probably though i haven't really tried...Unionbank has an e-card which you can use online, so i think you can also transfer money there too...

You can make a reversed depost to your visa card with moneybookers. Just add a credit card to your account and you can use it to withdraw money.

hi, i'm using metrobank, and moneybookers already verified my account (i already receieved the ver. letter they sent through snail mail) and have verified my account, so i guess metrobank is ok. you can get your bank's swift number online, just type it in. i have not tried transferring my money from my site to my bank account though since my money has not yet reached the minimum requirement for a transfer. but i hope everything works out :)

IF you have a bank account, add your bank account but ask your bank about their swift codes, moneybooker used that for wire transfering, hope this help :-)

ah yes, the best thing to do is inquire in your bank which you did already. i am just happy that our establishments are now having the edge on the electronic commerce. it will really speed up the business process and of course time and cost.
