Sharpeys Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Hi everyone. Can anyone answer us a question please? We are going to Perth on a Bridging visa and wait for the Aged Parent to be granted. We have sold our bungalow, and could be on the move all being well around early May..?? Can anyone advise how best to take our proceeds from our sale down to Oz. We don’t as yet have an account in Perth, we’re looking to open an account as soon as we get there with ID etc....we have been sending money down via Moneycorp who are excellent. Can we have our sale proceeds placed into their account and moved down to our Australian account safely? Or move it from our current bank is stages which might be free from charges depending on the amounts sent. Any feedback appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisawright Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 There are no charges to move money from your Moneycorp account to an Australian bank account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpeys Posted February 19, 2019 Author Share Posted February 19, 2019 Thanks for your reply Marisawright, yes, as I said, we’ve moved cash to our daughter for birthdays, permission fees, a reservation fee for a plot with no charges, or problems at all. My query is, is it ok to move such a sizeable amount far in excess of these fees safely..?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are not sure to build or buy established, but would also, like you, have the proceeds from the sale of our home in the UK to transfer. We are also with moneycorp (who allow free transfers if a poms in oz member). Best of luck. Xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
