I was quite nervous about transferring funds abroad, I was given clear instructions every step of the way and reassured throughout, I would definitely recommend using A Place in the Sun Currency for security and peace of mind.

I can thoroughly recommend A Place in the Sun Currency to handle your currency transfers. We have recently used them to transfer funds from sterling to Euros and found the whole process from start to finish to be extremely smooth, from the initial advice and through to the payment process and always responsive and to provide reassurance. Top class service!

Very happy with the service received from Place in the Sun Currency. Simon Eastman took care of everything from the initial exchange, safe keeping and multiple transfers during our property purchase in Greece – Would recommend.

The service I received was excellent. Matt was extremely helpful and explained the process for transferring funds from Spain to UK. It turned out to be very straightforward and efficient. Everything was completed within the time-scale Matt outlined. The exchange rate offered was better than the competitors I’d used previously. I will certainly use A Place in the Sun Currency again.

I have been trading with Matthew Boyle for many years now and he is flawless. Time after time he gets me the best rates even when I shop around I always end up using him. Once stop shop for hassle free currency exchange. I have reccomeded him to many of my friends and they give the same feedback, so it's not just a once off.

Professional service with speed snd efficiency. Easy to communicate and lock funds at chsen exchange rate once we know the commission and bank margin charged on live trading rate. Very pleased with the way the compliance checks worked and funds credited to the beneficiaries swiftly.

The purchase of my apartment in Cabo Verde would not of been so easy if it wasn't for Kian Songra and the team at 'A place in the sun Currency ' They were recommended by my lawyers and I'm really pleased I followed their advice because Kians help and advice and one to one service certainly made me feel assured my money was in safe hands.

It is a very efficient service, emails are replied to very quickly and it's easy to talk to your account manager on the telephone if needed. All transfer information & exchange rates are provided in advance and nothing happens without your ok. It's a really good service and we will be using again.

Matt was really helpful and made everything really easy to understand. I would definitely recommend using this service.

We met Ashley at Place in the Sun, Manchester in March before we had found a property in Spain. He gave us some great advice then and has continued to be very helpful since. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend using the company to secure a good rate of exchange and the security of transferring money abroad.
