Infact it's made some items unviable to buy from the US site once I factor in my bank charges. I can still save but only if the discount on the US site is a higher % than the Uk site.t/quote]t/quote]e/quote]e/quote]
Who do you bank with if you don't mind me asking?
With Natwest I have never had any charges, but I now have a HSBC account which is more than likely going to become the main account and was wondering if they charge.
EDIT: Quoting problem again, won't let me change it no matter how many times I try.
Im with HSBC, I can't quite work out how they calculate it despite folowing the links on their website and using the calculator provided, it's overall just slightly more than what you might expect the exchange rate to be, nothing massive. Just some things on UP1 that are £36 work out as £36 in dollars now too
