It was a great pleasure to work with Simon Eastman; he is very professional on every level. I'm very happy with the excellent personal service you provided, my currency transfers for my new home in Greece were smooth, safe, and always on time. I highly recommend Simon Eastman and his team. Thank you so much, from a very happy customer. Jessica

Fantastic customer service, would definitely recommend.

Great service from James and helpful chats too. Transferring money can be a bit daunting when you don’t do it all the time but James was very calm and professional and, obviously, it all went very smoothly. I’ll have one more transaction to make later this year and I’ll have no hesitation in giving James a call when the time is right.

A Place in the Sun Currency was recommended to us on two occasions. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Joshua Pow, Ashley Finill and their Payments Team! They were all so very friendly, helpful and extremely efficient and very quick to respond following any enquires – altogether an amazing team. You all made the transfer totally seemless from start to finish! And we cannot thank you all enough! H & G Lewis

Many thanks for the excellent service provided by James Tucker, who was always available to answer any questions and acted quickly to secure the best exchange rate for us. Would definitely recommend, as the rates on offer from A Place In The Sun Currency were far better than anywhere else I could find and the transfers went through very smoothly. We look forward to working with James again for future transactions.

I want to thank Mathew Boyle for working on my behalf, he made the whole process for me easy to use. I am always nervous dealing with people on the phone but he made it feel like I was talking to a friend. This service by place in the Sun was simple and I would recommend it to anyone who needs to but a place abroad I felt I could trust them, and felt confident using them

Our appointed manager is Simon Eastman, he was very professional and caring explaining the process and always listen to my request. Simon made the process very easy as im not the best with technology.
Gerry Tizzard

Must start by shouting aloud of my appreciation of the services and conduct of Naom. A gentleman of the highest order, polite and so caring of both his company's requirements as well as the needs, nervous behaviour and failures of the customer. Quietly put the customer at ease and made the whole process feel like the customer was the only person that mattered. Very very impressed. Other staff with whom I came into contact with, were equally impressive and efficient; well done Place in the Sun.
Bruce Strickland

A Place In The Sun gave us the best rate out of the companies we contacted, which included the other major currency traders. The customer service was excellent throughout, with no hiccups and prompt processing and remittance of onward payments. Simon E. was particularly helpful. Would definitely use them again in future; highly recommend.

Michael Jakobsen has provided excellent customer service, with constant updates despite only needing a small currency exchange. I recommend him very highly.

We dealt with Ashley about our needs for buying a property in Spain, he was very helpful and explained our situation well, he was efficient, prompt and kept us in the picture every step of the way. We will use Ashley in the future and recommend him every single time.
Yvonne Wood

I deal with Ashley who made the whole process very easy and he took steps to ensure a test payment went through and the complete transfer of funds was completed with no issues.

I had previously used A Place in the Sun Currency to assist with the transfer of funds in connection to the purchase of my apartment in Spain. So based on my first experience I had no hesitation to approach the company again when we sold the apartment. The currency exchange process was fully explained to me by the customer service team and it was very simple to follow. The team (Simon) was always helpful and provided an excellent service. Would highly recommend them.
