Hi there,

Anyone have any thoughts on the cheapest way to send money to the UK. Will be sending around 3000e per month from an Irish Bank to a UK bank. The Irish banks have a charge of around 15e which is fine but the UK banks apply an unfavorable exchange rate when recieved. And I think some apply a fee.

Thank you-any info/suggestions will be greatly recieved
