    Hi Guys,

    Anybody got a secure site they use to send money to international bank accounts online?
    For a few hundred bucks, I don't want to go into my bank to do an IMT.
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    I had to arrange this in the opposite direction this morning. Despite there being cheaper options, they chose to go Paypal for the convenience.

    There is xoom.com which is a Paypal company so you have the assurance of a known company, or there are other options with various prices:

    I checked with my bank and random answer up to $25 but depends upon the total amount. I think call centre is in overseas.

    I am searching to send some money to Canada bank account. Will check out ofx and transferwise.
