Good day all!.

I'm wondering if anyone can recommend the best way to transfer funds to Australia from the UK?.

I've seen the HiFX adverts, but was wondering if there were any others?

Any recommendations?

(I have an Australian bank account with Westpac).

Obviously I want as much bang for my buck as I can get!

We used Ozforex and I was very happy. If you do a search on here you'll see this question asked a lot.

Sorry about that, still finding my way about this site!.

I was going to go with Ukforex/Oxforex, but had trouble getting the account set up properly. They were helpful, but in the end I went with XE - I used them for a transaction from Canada to UK and it was really simple doing the transfer from UK to Australia.

Just did one the other day, and it was really painless, so send most of the rest of our money across. If the rate on the website ends up being about 2 cents less once they cut is taken - but really pleased with them.

Got my rate at $2.53/£1 which I am more than happy with (considering it was 2.05 when we got here!

I think in the end it's swings and roundabouts. I lost about $600 because I did the transfer later in the day, but hey...

xetrade rates arent the best, try www.transfermate.com and ozforex
