I used Currencies Direct whom were very good for very large exchanges but if you are doing less than €1000 at a time something like Starling bank work really well and give you near perfect exchange rates 

hope this helps

I Would speak with Carol at CD they are next to Caixia Bank on Camposol, you will get an account manager and they will talk you through the process and look to get you the very best price for your money, when we did it they saved us just over £2000 on the deal due to the fluctuation at the time, if it is for buying a property you will need to show where the money has come from which CD is a Spanish recognised money transfer recordable on the deeds, plus Carol is local on Camposol also which is a bonus

Agree with Roland - wise.com - easy to use - great exchange rates - I use them every month for currency transfers and also have a wise.com debit card.

Looked into CD and they do a good service and also do a lock in exchange rate which they guarantee - obviously there is a fee for the service.

I've used all 3 and Wise is the one I would Recommend, you do everything on line. Also what rate your getting from the start, as well as the amount you will receive also their fee before you press the button to accept. SIMPLES. and the best RATES.
