When receiving money from a sender in America, from a US Bank account as a bank transfer to a UK Rbs / or a HSBC bank account, 

then what are the international receiving fees for receiving money using the bank transfer from them to us?

Will they have a fee to pay in their USA bank? and will we have a fee to pay in our RBS/ HSBC bank?
and how many days does the transfer usually take?



For example, if £5000 was to be sent from the US bank account to the HSBC account, what would the typical fee be?

Here is what I have found,  but there is quite a bit of information to take in.
