Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Is it possible to transfer money from Irish to English bank accounts?

Surely in this day & age it's quite easy? & if so, what's the easiest way?

CurrencyFair - https://www.currencyfair.com/

I have used this for a couple of years - better rates than banks, 3 euro charge per transaction. There are other similar companies if you search Google.

Yeah as the previous posters have said most (perhaps all?) banks allow you to do this through online banking which is nice and convenient and only takes a day or two to come through. You'll need the BIC and IBAN of the UK account.

However you can usually get better rates from dedicated services like currency fair if doing large transfers of money.

For small one off payments I find my online banking convenient enough and the rate difference small enough not to matter.
