Retiring abroad
When you’re retiring abroad, you have so many matters to deal with, the last thing you want is any hassles in transferring your funds to your new country – and after the event, you certainly don’t want to feel that you could have got a better exchange rate. So it makes sound sense to discuss your plans with us at an early stage. We will explain your options (in plain English – no jargon: that’s a promise) and we’ll ensure that you get commercial exchange rates. Try comparing our rate with what your bank offers!

How Foreign Currency Direct helped me achieve my dream!
A few years after paying off their mortgage, Clive and Betty Taylor found themselves sitting on a big nest egg. Since their two children had left home and married, they realised that there was nothing to stop them following their dream of retiring somewhere in the sun, beside the sea. They had seen enough people doing it on television to feel confident about taking the plunge. However, despite talking about it all the time with their family and friends, they realised that although they would have to sell their house to fund their long-awaited move abroad, they knew very little about transferring the currency abroad. The closest they had come to foreign currency dealings was buying travellers' cheques for holidays. But with plenty of time to do their research – and with growing anticipation about going – they investigated everything thoroughly on the Internet. It was while exchanging emails with an estate agent in Spain that they were recommended to enlist our help for the currency transaction.
After discussing their needs with us, Clive and Betty discovered that with careful timing and our assistance, they would be able to save a surprisingly large amount on the currency transaction – enough, in fact, to afford a much better car than they had anticipated. Everything was processed securely and efficiently, and now they’re enjoying their retirement in comfort, and with much lower fuel bills!
