Currencies Direct
Currencies Direct are an international money transfer company that you can use to send money between countries without incurring any fees. What’s more, they are extremely competitive on exchange rates. Because they are such a large company with funds in many countries, money is not actually transferred – you simply pay Currencies Direct the money you want to send, and they pass the money into your overseas account directly from their funds in that country. Hence, no transfer fees.
