Hi all,
I usually use Paypal to send Xmas money to family in the UK but was wondering if anybody knew of any cheaper ways they have used.
Cheers & Merry Christmas!
20th December 2019 at 2:15 pm #85380I use transferwise if I’m transferring money between countries. Cost me like £75 to transfer £20,000. It’s only a few pound for small transfers, and it’s pretty much instant. Don’t know what it costs on paypal
20th December 2019 at 2:38 pm #8537920th December 2019 at 4:41 pm #85393From your bank account in Canada you should be able to send a SWIFT payment to a UK bank account – transfer from the UK out range depending on the bank but is normally £20-£30 per transaction irrespective of the amount.
your bank in Canada would confirm the charge for you

You pay a fee if you pay through their services option which it is automatically set to, just change it to friends and family
21st December 2019 at 9:26 am #85437Thanks for the suggestions. Bank transfer is a no go as charges both ends, other banks may vary. Paypal, charges and hikes exchange rates but cheaper than western union (which I would never use anyway).
Skrill, I am unsure with as it is I believe for UK only, somebody correct me if I am wrong. This would be a great option if possible though or idebit.
So far it is looking like Paypal as usual.
22nd December 2019 at 3:11 pm #85517I’ve been using this new [well to me] App called Much better, you have to link whatever account you wish and same on their side too. – you can send to friends and casinos in seconds and cash outs happen super quick; then less than 24 from “Much better” to my bank via e-transfer; cuts out another middleman being Canadian as well
Basically a Paypal BUT Waaaaaay better

Forgot to give full disclosure on my link, that one above will give both you and me a $5 boost I think !
But “Much Better” is superfast, goes right to phone; Sure you are aware watching streamers cash out and how quick is looks, compared to our choice of 5 day transfer from Malta – this takes hours.
First withdrawal – Rizk to Muchbetter [Request to approved and on phone – 20 mins]; then interac from much better to my bank account was 5 hours.

122nd December 2019 at 10:45 pm #85540I think muchbetter is a sister site if skrill.. or is that neteller.. could be wrong.

You are right. I just guessed it was because Casino’s don’t give me that option for withdrawals for some reason. When I ask a Casino I am just told it is not available in my region
