How does Premier FX save me money?
As a commercial client of Barclays Bank we transact a high volume of deals. This means we can access very competitive exchange rates from the foreign exchange markets. Coupled with our low overheads this enables us to pass on great savings to our clients. We do not charge our clients for transfers.
What costs / fees can I expect to pay?
Premier FX do not charge any fees for any of their services, so if you are worried that somewhere down the process you will be hit with a bill, dont be! Our account opening is free of charge, as are our transfers and even the one to one market trading advice given by our Account Executives. If you transfer your funds to our client account via on-line banking, in the majority of cases you will find the whole process completely free from charges.
How do I know my money is safe?
Premier FX hold secure clients accounts with Barclays Bank plc, London, which are totally seperate from our day-to-day business accounts. These accounts are very similar to how Lawyer / Solicitor clients accounts work. We are also registered with HM Customs & Excise, registrations number 1223621400000.
How long do you take to transfer funds?
As soon as we receive your payment we transfer your currency straight away. It should take no longer than 48 hours to reach the designated bank account anywhere in the world. In most cases it is even quicker.
Why shouldn't I just use my Bank?
Banks are usually 4 - 8 % more expensive on their exchange rates, sometimes a little less, often a lot more! They do not have the expertise on a local level to provide any guidance on Currency Exchange nor do they monitor the markets. We have our rates in front of us when you talk to us and we make sure we are up to date with the latest market movements.
