i'd love to transfer from my current account but i think it is only bank in the same country. arent there major commissions for international wire transfer?
Swift transfers are evil, banks can do a similiar thing paypal does (cutting fees from the amount sent if any cost arises even after paying the cost in front) unless you especially ask for the written amount of money to be transferred to the sellers account. Over here, paypal seem to have better fees than banks, no idea about canada thought
Did you check the seller's side of the transfer? 25$ sounds too good I remember paying around 20$ just to the receiver's bank during a wire transfer to China.
Bank transfers have always cost me around $25, that is way cheaper than paypal fees on $3k. But why ask people here for ping's information? I would ask nobody but ping!
Only he can ensure you have all of the correct information for the transfer. I have never heard of banks asking for both business and personal addresses to do a transfer.
The bank i do business with asked me alot of info including the adress of the receiver. Ping wrote me the adress in an email and it's ok now. Money sent, Money received two days after by Ping! :wink:
Ping is working hard now to complete them and i'm confident he will make great units as i expect.
