“absolutely fantastic service from the team, but i need to specifically mention Lauren who has been very patient, especially when i have mithered, as understandable we are dealing with large sums of money, always courteous, we have been fully informed at every stage where we are up to. One other point, whenever you are dealing with money or transfers you always feel vulnerable but at no point did we ever feel like that with A Place In The Sun Currency. Brilliant Service cannot fault, infact not just very good - EXCELLENT service Janet, Allan & Matthew Taylor”

“We used A Place in the Sun currency to transfer funds to Spain to purchase our holiday home and have used them several times to transfer funds to our bank. Their rates are excellent and the service is fantastic - they are extremely quick to respond to queries and to fulfil our orders for currency transfer even at short notice. All of the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend A Place in the Sun currency.”

“In my opinion, this company are very very bad. HSBC UK bank would not allow us to transfer money they said there was a potential fraud as they had found evidence they were registered as bankrupt when I explained this to PINS they took the money they already had and I lost £400. Be very careful if you are using them for large amounts of money transfer. Don't give them any money you can't afford to lose. There are many other sites that offer better rates.”

“Ashley was very helpful in this transaction to purchase our apartment in Spain. My requests to transfer different amounts to different places were actioned within 20 minutes. The rate we achieved compared to other competitors was much better too. In this transaction, we saved nearly £4000 compared to the best rate offered by a competitor. I wholly recommend A Place in the Sun Currency Ltd, and will continue to use them for our regular monthly transfers. Thank you.”

“I really struggled getting my head around the technology of transferring money, attaching g emails to pdfs and trusting someone with my lifestyle savings......it was scary. Lauren Buckner from A Place in the Sun Currency was a Saint. She took time to explain, talked me through each step on the phone and rang me back to explain the emails she would be sending and what to do. I was soon completing transfers on my own confidently and understanding the different daily rates. I cannot stress enough how this lady made buying our home a simple process. She was never condescending or assumed at any stage I could just do things. If like me you are of a certain age I cannot stress how easy they make the process. I must say the younger staff weren't as patient and if I got put through to them I could tell instantly by the tone in the voice it was just a job to them, not an but Lauren and Simon and Paul a pleasure. Thank you”

“We are delighted with the friendly and personal service which we have received since we first moved to Spain in 2013, and completely quit the former united kingdom in 2018, when we relocated our northern base in the Charente Valley near Ruffec.”

“I found a place in the sun currency excellent. They explained everything so it was a simple process. Lauren (our main and dedicated contact) was so nice and helpful and always got back to us quickly. She guided us every step as it felt quite daunting but she made it incredibly easy. Very happy I chose A place in the sun to do this as I felt also they were a well known brand so it felt secure.10 out of 10 for friendliness, professionalism and caring. Would highly recommend”

“Excellent customer service received from this company. As a first timer using an exchange service, I was nervous, but Ashley Finill was patient and explained the process thoroughly to me. He has helped me every step of the way from getting the best rates to confirming receipt of documents and advising when transfers have taken place. I would have no hesitation in recommending the company’s services and Ashley as a broker to others”

“The representative was very helpful and polite. However, the quotation that was given regarding the pound to euro rate somewhat differed when the transfer actually took place. After speaking with another money transfer company they explained that I had been misled. The actual outcome is that I am several thousand pounds out of pocket. I would advise anyone thinking of using A Place in the Sun Currency, to ask for the rate to be fixed with them in WRITING or be prepared to be ripped off.”

We are sorry to hear you were not happy with the rate for a recent exchange. To confirm, we do agree all rates verbally at the time of exchange, taking instruction before going ahead, and then confirm transactions in writing immediately. All our exchange rates are commercial rates, rather than 'tourist' rates, and offer a considerable saving compared to most banks, for most people. Please note that some competitors will also claim to offer 'too good to be true' rates after the event. While it's impossible for us to be aware of every rate offered by thousands of other providers around the world, our rates are generally very competitive, as confirmed by many other reviews; our apologies if you were left with any other impression from this transaction, which is never our intention.
