    Negotiate with the French bank to buy sterling perhaps?
  • Halifax can't fix the rate as the money will be sent from the French bank.

    Of course they can. If the French bank sends EUR then the exchange would be carried out by the Halifax (or, more likely, their international agent). If the French bank sends GBP then the French bank will have carried out the exchange before sending it.

    I explained all this higher up in the thread.
