    Superb suggestion. Because you could spend the rest of your life chasing any missing coins, not just a couple of years like with a brick and mortars outfit

    Of course you could always book a flight to the destination country, then travel by taxi/bus to the nearest branch of the bank in question and deposit the funds yourself. I am sure that would cost less than £25. :D

    Halifax offer £9.50 if you do it online, not so long ago they had a "first payment free" promotion too when done online.

    I have to say £25 for doing it yourself online is quite steep though.
