The exchange rate that you see on the news is called the ‘interbank rate’ – it’s the wholesale rate at which banks (and only banks) buy and sell currency between each other. This rate is not available to companies or individuals.
At Freedom Forex, we are able to buy currency at a wholesale rate and we pass the savings we receive from buying in bulk to our customers. You will always get quoted a price for the currency you want to buy or sell whether you trade online or over the phone.
The exchange rate changes every few seconds but once we agree a rate with you – that’s the rate you’ll get no matter what happens there after.
The exchange rate is the rate you’ll agree with your currency expert over the phone or online when you book your transfer. Once the conversion rate has been confirmed, your rate will remain the same, independently of what is happening on the markets.
There are no fee’s, commissions or charges applied.
