Following their purchase of Thomas Cook Financial Services, Travelex has grown to become the world's largest and most successful foreign exchange group with the world's largest commercial arm, bureau de change network, currency outsourcing facility and personal transfers product. When buying your property overseas, Travelex can offer a service unparalleled in the marketplace with guaranteed commercial rates that will improve upon those offered by any bank, speedier transfers to ensure that your money arrives on time, and access to a world-class currency expert all through our dealing rooms in the heart of the City. Established in 1976 and with a global brand recognised from our sponsorship of the successful Rugby World Cup and Australian Cricket Team, Travelex not only provide you with a greatly enhanced service from the traditional banking channel, but also has the financial backing and security to bring you absolute peace of mind when transferring money internationally. Our products include rate watches to act as your eyes and ears in the market (we'll contact you when your target exchange rate has been acheived), and forward contracts which allow you to fix the exchange rate on any future payments from day 1 of your purchase, ensuring that if you are purchasing off-plan or if you are going to have to wait for solicitors to complete the purchase before transferring your currency, you will know exactly how much your property is going to cost in advance. Establishing your trading facility has been made as simple as possible. Simply fill in the one-page registration document which we can post or e-mail to you and send it back to us along with a photocopy of your passport and utility bill. We will then open your account and contact you to establish your exact requirements. Once you're happy with the rate we will then send your funds to the overseas bank once we've received your sterling. Please note that we can send funds to reach any bank in the world within 2 working days and when the funds are received, because Travelex have negotiated favourable terms, you will not be deducted one penny in recipient fees (which can be as much as 0.5% in Spain). How much does all this cost? Nothing! We make no charge to open your account, send your funds, or set up a forward contract. We are able to do this because the number of people using this service mean that Travelex can negotiate even better rates with the major international clearing banks in Frankfurt, Tokyo, London and New York. How much will I save? People often leave currency to the last minute and think that their bank will offer them an adequate service.
