Posted by Heath Robinson on May 15th, 2025.
If you’re selling property abroad and need to repatriate the proceeds, it’s vital that you secure a strong exchange rate. However, some providers offer uncompetitive rates or charge transfer fees, and it can be hard to time your transfer right as the currency market is constantly moving.

Challenge
Pavla and her partner sold their second property in the Czech Republic to fund an investment and pay capital gains tax in the UK.
They needed to transfer the money from Czech koruna into British pounds, but they knew that a typical bank transfer would likely be very costly they needed to transfer the money from Czech koruna into British pounds, but they knew that a typical bank transfer would likely be very costly.
Solution
A friend of theirs, a mortgage broker, recommended using TorFX. Pavla and her partner did their research, looking into many different providers and comparing their services.
After exploring the options, Pavla decided to use TorFX. Our exchange rates were competitive, which certainly was important, but it was the highly personalised approach from her Account Manager that tipped her decision to use us for her transfer.
Impact
The whole process, from registering with TorFX to completing the transaction, was smooth and simple.
Her Account Manager helped her to make the final transfer over the phone, providing personal support.
Pavla got more money from her currency transfer than she would have done if she’d used a regular bank. She says she would definitely recommend TorFX to others as they are a very pleasant and reliable currency transfer partner.
