There are quite a few Russians living in Great Britain who have retained ties with their homeland. Therefore, their friends or relatives in some situation may need to transfer money to them. To do this, you need to know how to do it.
Instructions
Step 1
Use the services of the bank for the transfer. To do this, open an account or contact a financial institution where you have already opened it. When sending money, provide the number of the English account, the name of the bank and its international SWIFT code. Decide in what currency you want to send money. This can be done in dollars, euros or pounds. Bank transfer will take two to three business days. If your bank provides such an opportunity, you can make a money transfer on its website via the Internet.
Step 2
Use the services of companies that provide money transfers without opening an account. Western Union has the largest number of branches in Russia. To use the services of this system, you must know the full name of the English addressee, as well as the name of the city where he is located. Complete a payment receipt at one of the Westen Union partner banks. They can be found on special yellow and black stickers with the name of the company. Pay to the cashier the amount of the transfer and the cost of delivery. You will be given a receipt with a special code. Contact the English addressee by phone or the Internet, and he will be able to receive his money in about an hour at any Westen Union office in his city.
Step 3
Get yourself an electronic wallet, for example, on the PayPal website. Your UK recipient should do the same. Top up your account with a bank card. Then make a transfer to the person who was going to, to his virtual account. The transfer will be performed instantly after your account is verified by the system moderator. After that, your addressee will be able to spend the money received on online purchases or cash them out through their English bank. In this case, for such an action you will have to pay an additional commission. The very same opening and using the wallet will be free.
