how to transfer money out of the Philippines?

4 years ago
I am in Europe, and broke due to the recession.

My savings are tied up in a Philippine bank account (BPI) due to a prior visit. How can I transfer them to a German bank?

I heard that financial borders have tightened up since 2018. Western Union doesn't work. TransferWise doesn't work. WorldRemit doesn't work. Is that right?

How can I rescue my money? I have a BPI debit card with the international option active, but have run into very disturbing failures. I get the feeling that the banking system in the Philippines is in trouble due to the chaos of COVID-19. How can I get my money out before it collapses?
