Does any one here bank with Barclays UAE and have an xceed account.
Trying to transfer money to my Barclays UK account and being told will get charged 100 AED for it. Even though I get 2 free transfers.
Apparently its free if I do the trasnfer over the counter!!!! Doesn’t make sense

Makes perfect sense...nearly all international companies here are actually franchises of the "real" companies overseas - banks included.

If you are shifting money each month and it's not small amounts you might be better off looking at a professional currency exchange company.
