Be careful as this looks as if it's an International money transfer and the receiving bank may charge you for this. Ozforex transfer the money to their Australian account and then do the equivelent of a bacs transfer so no bank charge.
The monies in your account within 3 days.
It may be worthwhile comparing rates on a like for like basis.

Do NAB charge fees to receive international transfers from Moneycorp ?

Hi Colonel, I believe that all banks charge fees for international transfers. I could be wrong.
You would need to read the terms and conditions or contact them or perhaps some of the posters who do it regularly can enlighten us.
If it's a large amount then the charge will be very small as a percentage but if you were doing it on a regular basis then it would start to mount up.
Ozforex will allow you to move money both ways for the set amount of £7.

I will check NAB though to make sure that they do not charge a fee...thanks

It's normally the receiving bank that deducts the charge from the money you have sent.
