Hi guys i have been using hifx for sometime now to transfer money over to my oz bank account to keep it active,well until i finally move over,but today when i called them they only do a certain amount,i used to do small amounts and there was no transfer fee charged,probably cause it was into the rate given,but they are saying now that they dont do small amounts anymore and only large sums.
Is there anyone else online that does this in small amounts,and maybe with no transfer fees,or if there is with very little transfer fee,i suppose i have my own bank but im sure they would rip me off in charges to transfer money over,i just wanna keep sending money into the account until i get there and keep it active.
can anyone help me on this

Dunno to be honest. I've never even considered HIFX beause Tranzfers have always been really good for me. I've been using them fro 10 yeras and have never been tempted to go elsewhere.
Banks will generally cost more.
Tranzfers charge $15/£7 per transaction, regardless of the amount you move. Do a search on here for similar threads, and if you are going to use tranzfers also have a look for posts by mgilmour, he is their MD and is very good at responding to queries posted on here.

Another one to consider is xetrade.com - they do small amounts, literally a pound or two if necessary.

I use them for my business and personally. For AU / GBP transactions there is no per transaction fee and on a trade yesterday for £1500 the exchange rate was about $45 better than through HSBC.
