i got confirmation that my transfer went thru. i sent an extra £10 in case there were fees at hsbc(although when i called and talked to them they said there were no fees) well, i still owe gabit money. they charged around £17($27). glad i was able to combine and pay for my ticket and krystals too. that saved us each about $31.00.
and i talked with the woman who works at the American Express travel currency exchange office and she quoted me a exchange amout about the same as the bank had and said that the amount seen in the conversion sites are the amounts that it is with mega large amounts of money-like on stock trades. the higher amounts is what banks and most currency exchanges use. so the banks don't cheat, they just find inventive ways to get more money from us.
i don't know if there is a fee for national wire transfers here, but krystal was able to transfer money to me with no fee because we both use the same bank. i actuall thought of opening an account with hsbc when i jump the puddle, but they have a monthly fee if you don't have a large balance in your account and those monthly fees would probably cost me more before the next...GABIT 4-DO NOT READ NEXT SENTENCE...AT event-AT 7
OK< CLEAR...than the transfer fees, so i won't be doing that. next project-reservations at the Ren.
