Need to send 28.50 Euros to Freeride Madeira , my bank wants to charge £25 ! FM suggested using Transferwise . Never heard of them not sure I fancy giving them our bank details .

Used them to pay an austrian speeding ticket. It’s fine. Part owned by Richard Branson so unlikely to be dodgy. Use a card to make the payment.

Yep have sent thousands over various tranfers with no problem.

Have used it for years without issues. Great rates, very quick now.

have sent xxx,000s through them over the last few years. Absolutely brilliant. International bank transfers and their charges/shit exchange rates should be a thing of the past.

Transferwise is awesome. I just told the dude at Freeride Madeira that the bank charges were ridiculous so I just paid the full amount once I was there. I know what you mean about Transferwise – it seemed a bit weird at one point but don’t worry about them at all.

Have a great time in Madeira – I had Pedro as a guide and he’s an amazing rider – especially on wet clay – he just hardly touches the ground!
