Money transfer
Thanks for all the advice in the previous thread.
Something else occurred to me about moving money to the US. If I sell my house and collate all my savings together, what would be the best way to transfer money to the US?
Two main considerations would be security and cost - with such a high sum of money even a small percentage would make a large difference but the over-riding concern with large sums of money would be the most reliable and secure method of transfer.
Related to this, I presume I would I need to open a US bank acct - which banks would you recommend and is there a problem opening an acct without any credit history?
TIA.
