GlobalWebPay

Much better than the banks....

I tried this company after discovering them on the internet. I wanted to send a rental deposit on an apartment in France for 165 euros. My bank said I had to go to a local branch, take 3 items of identification, and then they would charge me £25 to do an interbank transfer! Extortionate.

Globalwebpay did the same transaction for less than £5, from the comfort of my own home, without the hassle of identification for such a small amount. When my bank rejected my Debit Card payment (!) Globalwebpay wrote to me by email to tell me the bank had caused a problem.

So I phoned the bank, they apologised, sorted their error, and the payment went through.
