Good Company (Companies) for € - £ Transfer...?

Postby Bugsbunny » Mon Apr 04, 2016 8:05 pm

Hola folks,

I'm not sure if I'm posting in the correct place so apologies in advance if I am.

Does anyone know of a decent company I could use to transfer a large amount of Euros to Pounds please?

Thanks in advance,
Bugs :thumbup:

Hi Bugsbunny,
" I could use to transfer a large amount of Euros to Pounds please?"................... Mossack Fonseca.......... :idea:

I use HiFx for small amounts, probably best to Google to get some companies and then get quotes.

Hi Enrique and thanks (as always) for your reply :)

How much would you class as a small amount using HiFX? I've just very nearly registered with them but didn't (just in case I end up not using them). I'll check Google but it is a bit of a minefield. Do you know anything about Tor FX by any chance?

I use currencies direct. Ive never used any other company so cant say its good compaired to xy or z but ive always been impressed with how professional they are.transfers are very quick and you get emails confirming every stage as it happens.

Might be worth looking at CurrencyFair.
You can specify the minimum exchange rate you will accept and wait, if you aren't in a hurry, until it reaches that exchange rate.
