    estimated transfer amount?
    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.

    Is LK the amount in local currency? Although not sure what it would stand for.

    Are you offering a prize for this? Why not say where the purchase was initiated.

    As in Sri Lanka .... and the exchange rate is €Euro
