My experience with Wise (AKA Transferwise) has been, 95% of the time money is in my local bankaccount in minutes. 5% of the time, 4 or 5 days. Something to think about.

Transferwise or Wise now is safe and low costs. Only 32 bath for send from nl to th. Negative is that they don't work in weekend days.

Every month I send 400 quid to my girl who lives in a small Issan village. She picks it up the same day. Easy as can be really.

Never heard of them before your post. The destination/recipient countries seem to be a bit limited and they have mixed reviews on UK trust pilot website (23% recorded them as bad...). Think I'll stick with (Transfer)Wise.
Lynnette *******
Yes, used Wise ( was Transferwise). Fast, 20 minutes to arrive, cheap and good exchange rate. Better than my bank.
