      Can anyone recommend a currency conversion company? We are finally buying a property in Ibiza and need to transfer the 10% deposit by 16 March. This site says to avoid high street banks and use currency brokers instead. Are there any that you would particularly recommend? Or do I just head for the usual suspects like MoneyCorp or Travelex?
      Any advise would be welcome as we’re trying to save every penny!
      Thanks in advance.

      I would recommend HIFX, I have been using them since 1999, never a problem, very competative rates, no bank charges.

      Please be careful that your bank in spain will charge you a commission, yes even though that you are providing them with financial liquidty.

      Hi

      We use http://www.globalcurrencyservice.co.uk.

      Charges me about £15 each transfer and he’s about 0.01 below the interbank rate normally

      Regards

      Paul
