Hi guys,
Anyone regularly transfering money from overseas to AUD? At the moment I'm doing it through my bank, but I'm paying through the nose in commissions, overseas transfer fees and bank fees. Surely there's a better way? Any good recommendations for online agents or accounts? Cheers.

They all seem to charge like wounded bulls! :(
I do a fair bit of USD to AUD and back as well as English pounds and I'll swear they all have a lend of me. |

HSBC to ANZ cost 9 pounds to transfer 10,000 Pounds and 22 Dollars to transfer 15,000 AUD back. Had very competitive rates too, so don't know what ans how your being treated ( we were 'Premium customers' though)(or perhaps the figures are small enough)
This was before the Australian Dollar went high and pound sank. Guess where it is all now... Not in Oz JP |
