We are flying out on the 19th of April and have just exchanged some currency with HIFX, this is the second time we have used them and each time have found them to be very professional, helpful and polite. I would recommed them to anyone.

Good luck with your move!!

Hello Tracey, We are using HIFX for my monthly pension transfers for the next 12 months, and one lump sum, Personally I think they have been very good for us, accepted their rate for my pension and managed a very good rate with them 2 weeks ago after watching the rates fluctuating. We are happy with what they offered us on their forward contract at $2.453. We will be watching the rates for the next couple of months for our next transfers. Its a gamble with who ever you use, Sods law if you change one day it will go up, if you don't it will go down. We think if you are happy at what you are offered take it, you can't keep thinking maybe we should hold back and wait.
Good Luck :)

Yes, we used HIFX and they were very good.
