Advice please on money!
 
Hi -

What's the best way of transferring money abroad. Have tried all the big companies but most seem to have a minimum limit and I have one big payment then several smaller ones to make.

Anyone know of any companies who are good with good xchange rates?

Thanks

Many thanks for your advice, just thought I would share a company that I found - satworldwide.co.uk, was recommended by a friend in the end. They were great. Small company, NOT automated (I was going mad pressing buttons and waiting on the line with the bigger companies), gave me a great rate with no charges. The guy I spoke to was Adam but sure they're all as good. Give them a try if you need to transfer money abroad as I have used them twice now and would never go anywhere else now!

I won't use anyone other than ozforex. They are fantastic :thumbup:

I don't think I've ever heard a bad word against them!

We used them as well, no problems at all and could make automated deals online. Also easy to speak to directly.
It was just a shame the exchange rates have fallen so badly.

I'm not sure if after the Crown Currency collapse in the UK that people will be too keen on using small currency transfer companies
