How can I use Global Currency Exchange Network’s services?
Just use the online FREE to register form and we’ll get in touch. We can then provide you with the best currency exchange rates available. We will also guide you through the very simple process of making a money transfer.
As soon as we have cleared funds in our account, the currency is exchanged and we forward it to the bank account that you have told us to send it to. It takes about 1 to 5 days, depending on the banks involved. You will need to allow for the money to clear in our account. Cheques can take 5 days, BACs transfers take about 2-3 days, and CHAPS transfers are instant.
