I have used Currencyfair numerous times and never a problem, and the exchange rates are one of the best.

Transferwise without doubt. I've been using Transferwise for years with no problems and money transferred within minutes. I've just set up with their Borderless Account.

Hi Steve

Did you find a solution for adding your partner to the account?

Hi,

No solution yet and Transferwise have not suggested any way either!! It is a real fault in their (almost perfect) idea which needs to be resolved. If I die or become incapable of operating my online banking where will any monies go from my account?

I will contact the helpline again and let everyone know what happens.

Steve,

 Are you saying that it would not be possible to open a joint account at all ? Even if you started again.

I've looked at that idea but they don't offer joint accounts, only personal or business accounts.

Definitely makes it difficult to use as your main account.
