paying for a rental while in uk!
Hey up guys
Gonna have to pay for a rental very soon and was wondering whats the best way to pay?
If i pay by say a visa card wont the bank give me a poor exchange rate?
Im still awaiting my westpac comfirmation letter through the post,but will only be allowed to transfer money into there and not out!
What about through my Hifx account?
cheers jase

Our landlord wouldn't take Visa over the phone (or in person, for that matter).
You can get your westpac account activated from UK for withdrawals as well as deposits. Westpac will send you a form which you fill in and have witnessed at your UK bank. The form is then sent back to London, and ultimately to Westpac Australia.
Last resort would be to pay them from your UK bank directly, although expect it to cost
