Which Bank are you with in Turkey. Heres wishing its the Finansbank !



Sorry for delay, the bank in Turkey was Isbank, Fethiye Branch.
Therefore Abbey £25 to send, Isbank £zero to recieve, no matter what value.

Hello All

We currently do not have a Turkish bank account but are going over on the 10th April and will open one then. Meanwhile, I have heard that it is possible to obtain a SWIFT transfer number from a UK bank prior to going to Turkey and then money can be transferred once the Turkish account is opened.  Barclays have said that this is NOT possible but can anyone advise of a bank that can help?

Regards

KAS

Hi Kas,

Afraid the answer is simple, no bank can set up any payment and put it on hold until you give them the details of where to pay it into. They will just say come back later when you have the account set up. Soory.

Has anyone tried a bankers draft?
If you are travelling to Turkey anyway, whats to stop you taking a draft along and paying it into a sterling account?
Don't know what the cost implications are - anyone else know?

Hi
Royal Bank of Scotland do Royworld for £18 stating delivery in 7-10 days and Royworld Express for £25 with a 3-5 day delivery. Both of these are irrespective of the size of the sum, certainly up to £60,000.

Hi Have just joined Forum and just bought in Calis. Halifax charge £25 to transfer money, but what they don't tell you is that not all branches can do it there and then but worse still they don't tell you that the Bank of Scotland take a charge as well. I transferred over just enough to cover first payment only to find that Bank of Scotland took over £30 making my first instalment short. Anyway sorted now and refund, amazing what threatening to remove your account can do, but will need to sort out before next payment due.
