Currency
Hi,
I would like to transfer some mo ey ti euros nice while the rate is reasonable, 1.13/£1. I had a quote from currency index.co.uk who said that I don’t need to open a bank account they will exchange my money and put it in a client account with them? Has anyone else done this, not sure if money would be secure? Thanks |
Re: Currency
How would you draw money to spend overseas from this client account? I have client accounts in both sterling and euro to hold and exchange currency but then need an euro bank account to eventually transfer my euros to for spending.

Re: Currency
I think that you are buying a forward contract to secure the rate. There are plenty of fx companies that offer that service. Ring around to obtain the best rate but most importantly ensure they are regulated in the UK and your funds are held in trust solely for your benefit.

Todays rate is nearer 1.14.

Re: Currency

Re: Currency
A euro based account accessible from wherever you are, lloyds bank do them in the isle of man and channel islands, citibank are i think in the channel islands, hsbc do them too, or you may have a better local option.

Or not, as the case may be. All logic suggested the GBP would climb against the Euro, so how in hell do these markets work .....mind you, if we knew that we would all be milking it as currency traders.
