Guest notquitethereyet Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Well I would like to firstly share my distress at the fact that after many years of planning a move to Oz, property hunting and all the rest of it - it looks like the dream is over - thanks to Mr Brown and the mess the UK is now in. Anyway (rant over) I had moved quite a bit of cash over to Australia in advance of my move - I now need to bring it back. I used my bank in the way over because I was concerned about the security of the companies that litter the internet promising great rates and fast service bla bla bla. Can anyone recommend a trust worthy company to use (in the UK as that is where I will have to stay unfortunatley), I tend to llike companies that you can get to know an individual, i tend to stay clear of the internet based businesses. Cheers (and sorry for sounding bitter, I will get over it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chesterpom Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 www.OzForex.com.au has been good for us. Used it 4 or 5 times with prompt payment to our UK account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest smileykylie Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 www.tranzfers.com.au which is a subsidiary of Ozforex offers free transfers from Aus to UK. Might be worth a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nelly6010 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Agree with the above - I have used Tranzfers/Ozforex loads of times over the last five years and never once had a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
family5 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 You have my complete sympathy and understanding. I could have written the same post. So, so angry at the way the UK has been bankrupted, socially and culturally trashed as well as becoming a warmongering nation. - and some. Our dream is over for the short to medium term, no question about it and I hate every second I think about it. You are not on your own, Im sure there are many many others in the same position. Didnt transfer any money but dependent on when you went for AUD you might actually make a return on your change back to GBP at the mo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
