Hi everyone,
Does anyone recommend using "Currencies Direct" for sending Pounds to Spain?... Are they good? I am asking because this company is not mentioned very much in the forums, and I would like to know whether it is reliable, if anybody has used it before and could let us know that would be great . Many thanks in advance. Kind regards.

It's OK but there are better companies out there. I use WISE

I used to use them 3 years ago but like most expats I moved to Wise because it is a better deal

including the option to have a free account, multi-currency debit card etc

Thanks a lot for replying! Yes, everyone seems to speak wonders about Wise. I think I shall give them a try first. Kind regards

Thanks a lot for replying. Yes, all the things that you mention make Wise really interesting. Many thanks indeed.

I started out with currencies direct but found them expensive and slower than Wise. I have used Wise for over 9 years and very happy to have my money exchanged and put into my chosen account within seconds at minimum cost.

I've no experience of Wise.
I have used Currency Fair for many years and have been perfectly happy with the service and charges.

I used MoneyCorp to transfer funds back to the UK after I sold my house, I found they did a better deal than Currency Direct, they were extremely helpful and the transfer once I gave the go-ahead was very fast.

Thanks a lot to everyone for replying... it seems that Currencies Direct is not so popular, in comparison to others, (i.e. Wise or Money Corp or Currency Fair). Kind regards.
