Gail, I used Moneycorp when we first started but have used xe.com for years now, much better and no extra charges by them or Bank. I also find the money can be in your US account the same day.
Go on give it a go!

Thanks Graham , I will next time , what I need to do is send a small amount first and then I will feel a little better , once I know how easy it is
HIFX now charge a fee of £9.00. I use www.thomasexchange.co.uk but I work in London so they are near me. Transfer is £12.00 but their rates are really good and the guy I deal with usually gives me a slightly better rate than advertised. That rate is good with Money corp Gail!
Had a bit of a slide over the past week or so. It briefly fell below $1.58 earlier today.
Can't praise xe.com highly enough. Excellent rates and very fast and free transfers. As someone else said the money is often in your account same day and certainly by the next day at least. Used them for several years now since Bank of Scotland stopped their £5 transfers and wish we had known about them before that.

Yesterday evening when I checked XE.com,s rate for trading it was 1.5562 so sliding down again by the look of it.

Below £1.57 this morning which is 5% lower than it was just a couple of weeks ago.
No doubt related to all this Euro turmoil although I can't claim to understand it or why.
I use a FairFX card which is supposed to be one of the best rates and it's down to 154.45 this morning.
I do hope they sort this Euro mess out soon, it's been going long enough!
I feel personally responsible for this downward trend - it happens every time I go to Florida!!
I've watched it slide downwards for the last fortnight. I wish I'd topped up my FairFX card a month ago. Don't worry, we'll be home on June 10th, it will pick up again then.
I wonder if I'm related to Eeyore?
Dave.
