hello

twenty days ago I applied for butler hill (because they pay with paypal), and i did the search screening test

Search Screening Test
Completed at 21:20:06 on 2013-07-05

but i never heard anything from them again. I don't even know if i failed or passed the test... i even tried to contact them but i never got an answer.

it's normal ? i have to do the US/UK English Spelling Test too ?

thanks

have you checked your spam box?? I almost missed an exam for ABH because the email with all the details went to my spam folder by mistake!

Barclays don't charge either

Hmmm, it is interesting to see that some banks don't charge to receive international payments, so I should think about changing.

Just a note, the charge/fee is not mentioned on my bank statement, I get a letter from RBS stating the exchange rate used and the fact that the amount has been reduced by £7 for receiving the payment. Do others from other banks get this type of letter. Just wondering how you know there is no charge, as only looking at my statement I wouldn't know.

Thanks.

Am currently waiting for some sort of statement/letter to arrive to see whether I got charged by HSBC. Will update when it comes.

I bank with Nationwide - I rang them to ask and they said they do not charge to receive international payments. HTH

Lloyds TSB do charge - there's a deduction on £7 on my CHAPS reciept, which matches what the counter staff told me when I asked (though the the person I asked in my local branch wasn't 100% sure).

LTSB write to me every time I get an international payment giving me a breakdown of the payment received and the exchange rate used and each time the payment I received in my LTSB account matched exactly the amount I was expecting with no deductions or charges... lucky me then!
