SMART CURRENCY EXCHANGE.

CurrencyFair.com usually give best rates. Not difficult to sign up. Rate at the moment is 1.1211

Buying money is no different to buying anything, just shop around. They all claim to give the  best rates but it's so easy to compare nowadays with the internet. Always remember the receiving charges and how to avoid!

I though a receiving charge was a thing of the past.

As far as I am concerned if I transfer 500 euro int my Spanish account that is what I receive have never known it any different except many years ago when  you paid cash money in to a bank they would mak a handling charg.

As for bank there is no receiving fee for amounts below €50000

That's true but the original poster is shifting money to buy a house and needs to be aware of the receiving charges for amounts over 50K, otherwise the costs can mount up.

Send several transfers below 50,000. Simple.

Yes, that's what I do.

Never received a charge for my bank?
