Thanks that’s great yes someone else’s mentioned them
Good morning.
I used GC Partners and they were great. No fees and you get an account manager (Lucy McKinnon for our area - I purchased in Los G) to walk you through the process. They also try and agree a purchase rate for you. When buying a property, you’re looking at a large sum of money, where every decimal point counts!
It’s worth asking them for a desired rate and see how they do.
Good luck
Danny

Hello,
I use GC Partners who I find extremely helpful and so straight forward with no fee to pay. I transfer money every month from my English account to GC Partners who pay my rent then transfer the balance to y Spanish account. Kane is the person to speak to,
Regards,
Maureen

We started out using Currencies Direct but now use Transferwise - and I also now have it as my borderless UK bank account. Transfers in seconds and very good rates/fees.

I was just about to arrange my first transaction with TransferWise however, I am concerned that I may have been re-directed to a bogus website.
I was redirected to 'wise' with an intro stating this is the rebranding of TransferWise. I then proceeded with the transaction but my UK bank does not recognise the sort code and account number. I have of course cancelled the transaction.
For those of you who regularly use transfer wise would you please provide the sort code and account number you have successfully used.

Yes, TransferWise is changing its name to ‘WISE’. in the near future.
