Transferring money to Poland

Options
Hi,

I need to transfer 4655 Polish Zloty into a bank account in Poland.

This is about £930, but I need to ensure that I pay all fees and that 4655 Zloty goes into the account.

I have a Halifax Current Account as my only bank account.

Thanks for the help :)

    Here are some ideas: http://www.fxcompared.com/Content/money-transfer-from-UK-Poland-below-3000-amount-933

    I've used GlobalWebPay several times with no issues - but while the rates are better than the banks, they aren't the best on the list.

    I've seen this VoiceCash option cropping up a lot on the list recently - I think I might give them a try next time I need to do a transfer abroad. Anyone on here tried them?

    Presumably that doesnt factor in any fees the recipient may have to pay for international transfers into their account?

    I've personally only found the way to be by asking the recipient to confirm the fee structure (eg $15 or 1% etc) and then add that onto the amount I state I want to send.
