| | | | | | I'll keep this in mind. Thanks to all who replied. Time was growing short, so I took the $8.50 option. Next time I need to factor all costs (hidden or otherwise) before making a deal.

They tend to use a sliding scale of charges from nothing(!) for sub 20GBP value cheques at the Halifax up to about 8GBP (~13USD) for (...) (26 years ago, 11-May-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)

| | | | It may be worth hooking up with a factor in the UK if you intend to undertake many more UK sourced transactions. I have a factor in the US and rather than forking out US$8 for each bank draft I get him to pay on my behalf. I also save on postage as (...) (26 years ago, 11-May-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)
