I'm complicated with a rare disease and a transplant. World First is the only company that can work out that my transplant means my rare condition isn't an issue and so charges a decent price. Reviewed on: 8th August 2018

Save on money transfers

5
This company has saved me A huge amount of money over the last seven years. Previously I used the British Banking System. The rate of exchange was lower AND I was faced with bank charges on top. I would recommend World First to anyone who needs to transfer money abroad on a regular basis. The banks seem to have woken up and are now trying to compete, a little too late in my opinion, maybe they could reimburse me for the overpayments. Reviewed on: 30th January 2018
