Who will give you 1.18? Best exchange rate I can find in UK is around 1.14 for £500+

Check Transferwise Tony, I've just checked what their offer is, see below
I sent a grand a couple of days ago, did the transaction on my phone with their app at 10.30am, it was in the Spanish account by 4.00pm
Great company

Regards all

John

Hi,

Looking at transferwise app, do they just debit your bank account if you give debit card details? Do you know how big a company they are?

I use TransferWise after recommendations on the forum, they take the money off your debit card or whatever you have registered with them to take the money from, have to say the rates are excellent and they are quick with the transfer.
I don't know how big a company they are.

Fairly big - look them up on Wikipedia. You can also look up Transferwise Limited on the Companies House website and learn a bit more. They are heavily capitalised but - up to March 15 anyway - have a negative P&L account; but because they apparently qualify as a small company they are filing abbreviated accounts which means there is no detail of income and expenditure.

Oh please does it matter how big transferwise are, ive been using them for years very pleased, if you want big go with the major banks who will keep spanking you with low rates and fees. Some people are never happy and find pointless faults.

I thought we were talking about obtaining cash, not inter-bank transfers.

Its been said before - but as for obtaining cash I use them because the transfer is so quick (less than 20 mins on a weekday) I do the transfer from Lloyds to my BBVA current account while having a refreshment at (for example) Dunbars or Websters and stroll to the BBVA cashpoint and its there its there !

Last time I did an inter-bank transfer to BBVA of Euros, when it arrived in the account BBVA charged me an arm and a leg. I've always fed it with cash since.
