You Bank should know where they transferred the money. I think it's on your bank to explain why money was removed from your account.
If it were me my position would be; "there's 10,000 pesos missing from my account. Where did it go?"
Put their feet to the fire.-

Don't understand why you are searching for swift codes, they are for international transfers. What you need is the Philippine Bank Routing codes, that is what we call sort codes.

It is very unlikely that they are intentionally doing it. It is almost certainly incompetence. Talk to a manager.

But you must remember machines are not perfect. You are asking people who do not fully understand and that the normal practice is to follow the proper procedure no matter how tiresome and my friend that starts with your bank. Getting angry, especially in the Philippines will not help at all and you are after all chasing about 200 bucks. Not a fortune. It will get fixed it you do it the right way.

Some wrong poop on my part. What I thought to be an ATM identifying number was/is really the transaction number. The bank lady that told me that that ATM number was not one of theirs was correct because I had given her a transaction number not an ATM number.
My bank, really Credit Union, is in Alaska. Yes I have been in touch with them. They have been informed and are fully aware of this situation.
I have to return to the bank in the morning and fill out another form for the 10,000 this afternoon.
I hope I can keep a cool head and get through this.

This happened to me several times on traveling through Central America, I used BofA and when it happened I called their customer support who then immediately returned the funds to my account and then started an investigation. Upon no response from the offending bank they then ceased the investigation in my favor. Not sure who you bank with but calling your US bank would seem to be the best direction..

SWIF Codes? are;
SWIFT stands for Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication. At its core, it shares a similar function with BRSTN but is made up of either 8 or 11 characters that includes numbers and letters.
After I contact Land Bank tomorrow I will let you know how it turned out.
