ATM commonly dispensed by cash machines
Bars are scaled to face value on a log scale, not to physical size. Shading indicates value: we have not verified this issuer’s colours. Converted at mid-market reference rates; what a counter pays is always less.
Getting cash
Philippine cash machines usually dispense P1,000 and P500 notes. The P1,000 is hard to break outside malls and supermarkets, so it is worth asking for smaller denominations where the machine offers the choice.
