A place in the sun currency was recommended by my estate agent. Years ago I’d had experience of money corp. this recent interaction, with Ashley at the helm was clear, supportive, organised and friendly. Was guided through from beginning to the end of a property sale in Spain. I would recommend them highly. Thank you

Great customer service from Ashley and the team at A place in the Sun who helped me with transferring and exchanging currency between Spain and the U.K. They are very efficient, reliable and prompt to get back to you. Would highly recommend them!

Prompt, polite, friendly and professional service from start to finish. Our key point of contact was Naom, who was on hand at every step of the process for the purchase of our property in Nice, and kept in regular touch. Would thoroughly recommend!

Being tech averse , wasn't sure of it all but Ashley guided me through and all was good thank you for your good service

Our property agent recommended using A Place in the Sun Currency in order to maximise on the exchange rate when purchasing our property in Spain. I was nervous, at first, as I didn't know this type of service even existed, however it proved to be very straighforward. Simon Eastman guided us through each step of the process and communication was first class. We got so much more value for money using this service instead of making international payments from our UK bank. Would definitely use again and have no hesitation in recommending to others.

Our money was processed quickly and we received confirmation at every stage. Very professional and put our minds at ease. Thank you.

Fantastic service from Ashley at A Place in the Sun. From start to finish, Ashley was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive. Everything was explained clearly, questions were answered promptly, and the whole process felt smooth and stress-free. Truly outstanding customer service — highly recommended.

I was completely out of my comfort zone moving money from country to country – especially because it was on behalf of an elderly family member. I needn't have worried though, Simon Eastman held our hands through the entire process and couldn't have made it easier for us. The process was simple and the service was quick and convenient. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Simon and A Place in the Sun Currency to anyone in the future.

Purchasing a house abroad can be such a stressful time. However, with the help of the team at A Place in the Sun Currency, and the feeling of security that the companies reputation afforded, and also favourable exchange rate, made it much more bearable. Thank you very much for excellent service, and will definitely use your service again.

We used A Place in the Sun Currency for our house purchase in Spain and had a great experience. Simon, who helped us throughout, was excellent — he provided real peace of mind, helped move money quickly when needed, and clearly explained the bank charges so there were no surprises. He was always quick to respond and answered our questions promptly and clearly. The whole process felt straightforward and well managed. We would highly recommend A Place in the Sun Currency to anyone buying property abroad.

Another perfect transfer. At the end of last year I moved to Spain and purchased a home, one of my biggest worries was the transfer of my funds (Especially in the world of online scams) I thought the safest option was my own bank, unfortunately their rate was a so poor, that's when A place in the sun currency was recommended, from start to finish the team were amazing, they very professional in guiding me every step of the way, the rate compared to my bank saved me thousands. I have just transferred another large amount (Large enough that I couldn't rick any loss or poor rate). A special mention to Matthew B, Thank you, I cant recommend your services enough. P.s A Place in the Sun also helped me choose where I'm now settled 🙂
