International Transfers
7 years ago
I moved to Poland recently and needed to transfer my savings over to cover my set up costs in my new home. I had heard how badly banks rip you off when transferring International so started to look at new ways to transfer money. Having looked I picked CurrencyFair as having the best reviews and the fact that they have an office in Ireland with their customer service team based there was a real plus. I found the whole process really easy and managed to save PLN 1,200 from a €10,000 transfer. Can't recommend this service enough and I continue to use them sending part of my Salary back to Ireland to cover bills. They offer an Incentive for referrals too which is really handy €15 free when using the code:

Cannot recommend this company highly enough. For years people have been losing out hundreds and thousands by using the banks. Great to see a company who is making a dent in this age old process.
If your not convinced (I had my doubts), use their calculator which will tell you how much you can save versus transferring with the conventional banks.
