This could be to transfer rental income from a property, or it might be to maintain a home in the UK or send money to a child or grandchild studying in the UK. Whatever your reason for sending money back to the UK, using a foreign exchange specialist rather than your high street bank could make a significant difference to the amount of sterling that arrives in your account. This is not only because you will have the benefit of great exchange rates and low transfer fees, but also you will be provided with expert market guidance and specialist services to help you make the most of your money. A specialist can talk you through the transfer process and their in-depth market knowledge can help you mitigate the risk of the unpredictable foreign exchange market and potentially protect against rate volatility.

As well as dealing with foreign exchange specialists over the phone, you should be able to make transfers online and even set up automated regular payments to cover, for example, a mortgage payment or property maintenance costs. Once you understand your alternatives, it becomes much easier to make the most of your money when repatriating funds. moneycorp is a foreign exchange specialist company, offering great rates and a range of services delivered online and over the phone.

Hi all, my query is about transferring money from Dubai to my NAB account. I hear that banks in Oz charge fees for money being transferred from overseas. If that is the case, is it better to use some online exchange / transfer website to transfer money without charges. Any information or tips in regards to transferring money from overseas into an Oz bank Account are welcome! Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app

By John Kinghorn from Moneycorp Moving to Australia is a big decision. And no doubt you will want to start your new life with as much money as possible. One of the main factors affecting the amount of money you actually start out with is how you choose to exchange your pounds into Australian dollars (or pounds into dollars if sending money back home to the UK). That’s where moneycorp can assist - below are some top tips to help you get the most for your money. Using your bank? Many people leave their foreign exchange in the hands of their bank. Most are unaware that there are other options available to save money. Banks typically won’t offer you as competitive an exchange rate compared with what moneycorp can offer you. The difference in the rate can be up to 4%, meaning you get more Australian dollars for your pounds. Personal service Using a currency specialist company means you can transfer money overseas with the help of your own Account Manager. They will help you transfer money at the right time, in the right way – for example, when rates are more favourable. Your dealer will work closely with you to manage your currency risks. Plan ahead The longer you have to arrange your currency transfer, the more flexibility you will have to ensure you get the best deal and exchange rate. Special offer for forum members No transfer fees if you register through Poms in Oz – banks can charge up to £40 every time you send money overseas therefore you can save money on fees alone. Next steps Interested in saving money on your overseas currency transfers? Well, it is free and there is no obligation to register for a moneycorp account. Once registered, you will have an Account Manager who can provide live quotes as and when you need them, plus they will go through your requirements in detail. They will also provide information and guidance on the Pound/Australian dollar exchange rate Register with moneycorp by clicking here. Make an enquiry or ask a question by clicking here.

Does anyone here use bitcoin in order to transfer money between countries so that they don't pay the exorbitant exchange rate fees? I'm interested to find out whether people are actually doing this, because I'd like to see if hostels and the like would be interested in being able to accept bitcoins for their services. It's supposedly becoming a wide-spread practice, but there is very little discussion about it?

Hi, Has anyone used TNT Forex to do a money transfer? I am transferring some money to Australia and have been told about this company and they transfer money from uk to Australia for £7 Just wondered if anyone has good/bad reviews on the company?
-
So I was reading an article and it said that a typical trading day starts with New Zealand, before moving across to Australia, Japan and Asia, Europe and North America. The UK and the US markets account for around half of the total world market, therefore the times at which both are open are particularly busy. The following are the overlapping timings. - New York Market trade times: 1pm - 9pm GMT - London Market trade times: 7am - 5pm GMT - Great Britain Market trade times: 8am - 4pm GMT - Tokyo Market trade times: 8pm - 4am GMT - Australia Market trade times: 12am - 8am GMT There are two times when two of the major markets overlap during trading hours, - between 7am and 9am GMT for Asian/European markets and - between 1pm to 5pm GMT for European/U.S. markets. The market is open 24 hours a day but this doesn't mean that it is always active. So, does anyone of you know if these overlapping times, in general gives a higher probability of getting a better rate? I'm just wondering here if there is in fact a good time of the day where its best to transfer currency. Cheers B!K3R

If we've had an ex rate loss in transferring funds from UK to Oz can we claim it as a FOREX loss? (ie ex rate was less when we transferred it than when we arrived in Oz) I read on ATO website that we can't claim for personal/domestic issues - is that correct? AND one of questions is 'any assets outside Oz in excess of $50k?', we had funds in a UK bank a/c which was brought over before end of tax year, does this count as assets? Do we need to answer 'yes'? And why do they need to know coz there is no tax payable on this is there? Thank you to anyone who can shed light on this. (I did ring ATO & after being passed from person to person, with promise of a ring back to clarify issues..which has never happened...I thought I'd ask on here, coz am sure one of you will know!)

Oz Forex- What type of UK account are you keeping your money in ready for transfer?
jorose posted a topic in Money & Finance
Hello We are almost ready to do our first transfer of money to Westpac via OzForex. However the account that I am transferring the money from only accepts transfers in person whch obviously won't be an option once we arrive in Australia. What type of good interest (for around £40k) UK accounts are other people holding their money in whilst living in Australia? Grateful for all replies. :v_SPIN: Jo :spinny: -
