Default Money Transfer Oz to UK

I will need to send regular cash from my OZ account to UK account when I arrive in Jan.

I have accounts with HSBC in UK and in Sydney now (althouth the OZ account is currently dorment). Are there any obvious pit falls to avoid? I want to send money each month.....is there a better/more cost effective way then simply HSBC account to account?

Better exchange rate than your bank is a good reason to use them.

Are part of ozforex which you would use instead for larger sums but this is good for smaller regular ones.

They are very easy to use - speaking from ten years of experience! Also they do look after people they know have come to them via this forum, and in the rare event of having a problem with them Matt Gilmour who posts on here (as mgilmour) is one of the head honchos at Tranzfers and is very willing to talk people through things. He's also willing to chat to people who have doubts of any kind about using the company - security issues or whatever.

Love that thing!

We've used Ozforex many times and think they're awesome. Tranzfers is part of the same company I think so if I ever needed to make regular smaller payments I would certainly use them.

Yep, Tranzfers is the arm of the company that deals in smaller amounts
