Law / Best on-line forex service for GBP -> PLN exchange? [10]
I've used the service twice and was very satisfied with the service. Its a bit clunky since you have to make bank transfers and it takes a couple days but the rate is the closest to the market rate that I've seen and you also avoid all the charges and fees that banks tend to charge. I was sceptical at first as well, so tried it with a relatively small value to test things out and it was fine.
PLN is quite a volatile currency so the rate you get can move for or against you since the transfer is not instant. From what I remember there is an option where you can choose how much you're willing to allow the exchange rate to fluctuate during the transfer process. 1%, 2% etc. If it moves beyond that they won't make the exchange.
