Optimal Currency Reviews 

The whole process from start to finish was straightforward. Having a named point of contact who talked me through the whole process and various options was especially reassuring.

The reliability , honesty and timely service

Excellent communication, smooth service that was all generally easy to use.
It was our second time of using them and again went without a hitch.

Excellent customer service. Quick turnaround with transactions and excellent rates.
Web portal is quite basic and lacking in functionality so some basic stuff requires contacting the OC staff, but they're always happy to help.

I have been working with Optimal Currency for the past seven years and highly recommend them to my clients in Real Estate. Communication is always easy and, instructions of what documents are required is clear leading to fast smooth transactions. Always a pleasure to work with them.

I was recommended Optimal Currency for transferring my property sale funds from Malta to Sweden. Very professional company with excellent
communication, constant updates and great rates. Everything went fast and smooth. Highly recommend!

Referred by my property selling agent in Malta. Have used similar companies in the past . This experience was by far the best I’ve had. Personal touch and nothing too much trouble. Best rate by half a point overall, 8k difference above HSBC rate in Sterling . Would recommend this team unequivocally. That’s the short version but no point in the long version very very good service 👍👍

I have been using Optimal Currency for over 2 years now, transferring funds to Malta and back again to the UK.
David Worthington and his team gave me the peace of mind needed with prompt communication and updates.
They are highly knowledgeable and will get you a much better price on your currency conversions in comparison to the banks.
Highly Recommended.
Thank you so much Optimal.

I’ve been using Optimal Currency to transfer monies to Europe for business purposes. Rates have been more favourable than the banks saving my company a fair chunk of money.

The team have kept me up to date with the transactions and the balances in my account. I highly recommend their services

Our Estate Agent in France pointed us in the direction of Optimal Currency when selling the property we had owned there for nearly twenty years. We are so pleased that he did. Given the relatively large sum involved, we were cautious about the final transfer stage of the funds back to the UK. But throughout, we found the personal service offered by OC to be very reassuring. They have a solid, easy to use website, a presence in the UK quite close to us and the two David's guided us carefully through the steps that would follow after completion. They told us that the funds for transfer were ready and went about searching out a good rate of exchange for us. Given the way the market was moving, we elected to transfer the whole sum on the day and the funds were in our UK bank account by mid-afternoon. Thank you to David and his team for a stress-free experience and to those reading this, I would strongly recommend that you engage the services of Optimal Currency.

Personal service.
The people at optimal currency communicate with their customers both by phone and email. No navigating endless queues and prescreening questionnaires.
You are able to reach and speak with agents who not only assist with the transaction but provide education and the status of your funds throughout the process.

David Bayliss and Optimal were recommended to us by our Italian realtor. The transfer of funds was quite easy and efficient, they communicated throughout the whole process, which took a lot of the stress away.

Everything worked well and very efficiently.

This was the first time I had used a service such as Optimal having just sold a property in Spain. Given the sum involved I was quite cautious as you may imagine. The two David's I dealt with could not of been more helpful and guided me through the whole process. I would not hesitate to recommend Optimal to any other potential client. Thanks for everything Guys.

Optimal Currency were a reassuring and confident presence throughout the process of transferring funds from France/Euros to UK/£.
their exchange rate was very good, the process thorough, straightforward and professional at all times.
it was a pleasure working with them, and we would unhesitatingly recommend them.

We had a number of issues with the French side transferring the monies to Optimal. James our Account Manager worked with us to overcome these problems. Once they had the funds, transferring the monies per our request was done swiftly. No problems with giving a 5 star review. The earned it.

James was responsive very well informed and prepared to go the extra mile to make this happen.

Fast,professional, responsive, friendly and efforts to get best deal.

Highly recommended, would definitely use their services in the future.

My wife and I needed to remit some funds promptly to the UK from our foreign bank account, David and his team were not only extremely knowledgable but provided a "white glove" experience to our transaction.

They were quick to get us setup, and once we deposited the funds in their account were very quick to turn them around and get the GBP equivalent deposited into our UK account.

Throughout the whole experience they were always on hand to answer any queries promptly and always available to jump on a call to have a quick chat with. This is something we really valued, as we were quite nervous transferring such a large amount of money and having them take us through it every step of the way was really reassuring.

Finally I also wanted to mention that we got a great rate in the end, much better than some of the other companies we checked with initially.

Thanks David Bayliss and team for such a smooth expereince!

Very responsive and helpful, specifically David Bayliss. Thank you for making the currency transfer easy and quick!
