Sending Money Abroad.

[Tilly2]

I want to send a large amount of money to South Africa. It cant be sent as a cheque. What's the safest way to send it?

Try Western Union. They are very good and you don't have to do it online as they have outlets in various shops.

Thank you, SharonA. I'll have a look at that.

Or get your Bank to SWIFT it across. It isnt cheap though but it is secure and traceable.

Do nothing til I have nudged Dave, Tilly!

We use Wise (formerly TransferWise) - it's cheap, it's safe and it's easy.

If you are not able to send it to SA, I can give you my address and I will deal with it for you.
PS Don't tell Gness.

It's not to one of those princes, is it ?

Thank you all for your help, although I think Barsel is trying it on!

No OG. Those princes are Nigerian not South African.
