I work in banking. From inside knowledge, I know that retail banks get nowhere near the tiny FX margin that UKForex.co.uk offers. I love that there are no fees (over 3k transfer). I love that the more I transfer, the better a rate I get. I love that I can get immediate quotes if I am considering a transfer AND the quote is always what you get when the deal is complete. Generally transfers are same day, even to Australia (I initiate overnight and receive early afternoon here). I also love that when I absolutely needed the transfer to happen even quicker, they got on the case immediately and made sure it happened. 24 hour phone access to a real person that knows what they're talking about.
