HI mate
I had this problem recently but in the opposite direction. what ever bank you ise they will charge you for sending fund overseas. BACS is free but only works between two countrys that are part of europe, i think any way - as im sure i was having that problem. a £500 payment was costing me £35 a time to send so over the year i spent £420 just on sending money. the rule is use a currency broker. i have mentioned this a few times before but go to www-currencyfinder-co-uk. they will search all of the major currency firms to find the best quote for your amounts. i now pay nothing for sending funds out and i get a better exchange rate.
