Simon Eastman is the person who worked with me, guiding me through each step of the way with ease. All questions asked were answered to my satisfaction. I used email when communicating with Simon but did not constantly check my messages but when I did, his answers were there waiting for me. He made everything seemed so easy. I highly recommend A Place in the Sun and I would use definitely use them again.

Thomas Mickleburgh

I have just started using A Place in the Sun Currency and Kian has been very helpful and professional. He is also very personable which goes a long way. Everything has been done as promised and the better exchange rates are very welcome.

Excellent service made so easy polite and helpful very smooth transaction.
Ed Sweeney

Huge thanks to Kian Songra (UK) and Tom Culshaw (Spain) for a first-class service. Highly recommended, professional and friendly. In the past we had used our bank with unpredictable exchange rates and high fees hidden in the bank rate offered. Instead, this time, we used A Place in the Sun Currency. Tom and Kian’s expert advice in locking-in a forward looking rate (converting USD to Euro) proved extremely valuable given economic/political global uncertainties and resulted in us achieving a much better conversion rate for completion of our property. Therefore, to our delight, lots of extra euros for us to use for the property refurb instead of going to our bank in fees! Kian was extremely patient, helpful, informative, and supportive throughout and we were impressed by the company’s security measures for ensuring the safe receipt and onwards delivery of our money, which put us at ease. The currency was sent to our bank quickly and hassle-free. Thank you for making our Spanish property purchase dream come true!
Scott and Steven

I have dealt with Simon and Kian and from both I have I received a friendly professional service from start to finish. Each part of the process was explained to me and the transfer went through very smoothly. The team kept in touch and followed it through to the completion at a good exchange rate. I am very happy.
John H

I received a very responsive and informative service and had the most competitive GBP to EUR conversion rates. The process was simple, easy and reliable. Kian was my agent and he was excellent. He guided me through the process giving me complete confidence and comfort in transferring a relatively large amount of money.
