Advice about payments sourcing T3

[Trillylil]

Hope this is allowed.

I’ve got an order for T3 via an European Country (Greece)

However, I need to set up an international bank transfer in Euros, but email says I am responsible for all transfer fees.

If anyone else orders their T3 from same place and can private message me I would be very grateful as would like to know what the recipient transfer fees are.

Every thing seems very complicated first time and I don’t want to make an underpayment.

We have seen lots of issues when people have used bank transfers. Specifically when there is the bit about being responsible for all transfer fees. I am not at all sure you even could know all the fees that might be involved. Some have asked their banks before sending and been reassured that the recipient will get expected amount - only for that not to happen.

We have seen some people get short orders as the supplier claims that they did not get full payment. Followed by arguments and unhappiness.

If there is any possibility of paying by a different method or using a different supplier, I would.

Just do international transfer from your bank account. It's free in EU (yet) and yes you tick box that you are responsible for transfer charges which are nil .anyway. it doesn't matter if you request transfer in pounds or Euro, your bank will apply exchange rate. Though you need to specify exact amount you want your recipient to receive in his currency.

Best if you do online banking otherwise you'll have to see your branch.

All is explained in your bank terms and conditions, just go to your bank website

When I do it on mine it's pretty straight forward and then the bank also send letter confirming international transfer.
