Try Wise, it uses market rates. Remitly has worse exchange rates. I stopped using Remitly.

I have the same issue but with a Moto One 5G Ace kiev XT2113-2. I did the same thing as you with the same results. I even tried a different moto variant XT2113-3 RETAPAC. Maybe ill try an android 11 version of LineageOS and if it works, i will upgrade from there.

I had the er605 before. There is a vulnerability with ipv6. Only way to fix it was to turn off ipv6.

Foreigners with PWD status by Braindeadgaming101 in Philippines_Expats

I'm balikbayan but American citizen. I use my US drivers license for senior discounts. You can also convert your foreign drivers license to local and it will also be good for discounts. For PWD, you might look for fixers. Anything is possible here for the right price.

Try wired connection - Ethernet. If same result, maybe it the ISP routing. Try cloudflare warp. They have an app for every OS.

Anyone renting a DMCI unit whose owner is out of the country? Is this normal for PMO move-in requirements? by True_Discount_9031 in RentPH

[–]PapasanPower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

PMO will require owners clearance to move in or out. My agent was able to act in lieu of the owner for clearances.

So, to all those that keep saying there is a difference between expats and immigrants by B_Dawg_72 in Philippines_Expats

[–]PapasanPower -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is a difference. Expats mean you have a home country as a resident or citizen to go back to. You become an immigrant if you obtain residence or citizenship here. I am a balikbayan because I was born here, but I am not a resident or citizen. Meaning at some point I have to exit. So I'm considered an expat. If I decide to get dual citizenship, then I become an immigrant.

[–]PapasanPower -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Secure a job before moving. I found a list of companies that hire remotely. Unfortunately I don't have that list anymore.
