Ratings and Reviews
Good but could be better
Really easy and quick to buy and transfer currency. The only reason I only gave 4* is that the app needs to send notifications, especially for rate alerts. Even simple apps send notifications so not sure why this app is lacking in this respect.?? I don’t want to rely on an email to alert me to my rate being reached, as by the time I receive it the rate has changed.
Beware
I am 78 years old and have been exchanging currencies regularly for 4 years with very few problems. However recently the £/euro rate fell to an 39 year low. I live in Spain and as I intend to go back to England sometime in the future It was a convenient time to send some money back to England.
As my bank in Spain had a limit how much I transferred each day I made a number of transfers every day for around 12 days. After that time I sent my pension £’s to exchange to euros, after which my app wouldn’t work and was blocked. The reason for this, I was told that I was money laundering and exchanging money for profit. I tried to explain that the money sent to my English bank was for a personal reason ( which I explained) and I just took advantage of the low rate. I have appealed against this ridiculous decision without success and my friends in Spain all agree with me.
I am now transferring money with another company which offer a better rate.
I can’t see how this could be better.
5 stars for this app and the service offered by the real human staff in real offices to whom you can actually talk to on the phone, which can’t be said for the app I had been using previously.
The setup was quick and easy and I was phoned by the staff at the office local to my payment destination to ask if I needed any further assistance.
I just hope they keep up the good work!
