(Locked) December SWIFT withdrawal requests

Well, it used to come almost instantly, it’s the first month where I didn’t receive it yet. Let’s hope it’ll come.

This used to be my case also. In the past year i received the payments before the confirmation email, but last month it cam back to normal(1-2 days after the confirmation)..

I have received SWIFT transfer today

I havent recieved my money yet….how long does it take anymore? I am using moneybookers.

I got my money on moneybookers yesterday.

Still not get my money, thats f** annyoing. I also sent a support ticket 2 days ago, no reply yet.

^ Today I received swift payment to my local bank but there is a difference. Usually if the swift details are fine, I receive automated intimation from bank about transaction. But today, I didn’t get intimation so I called bank and then they completed the transaction (they traced the pending credit manually). The same happened 2 months back when there were missing 00 in account number prefix. So just wondering if the same old error persists on Australian bank side.

I am also having some issues with my transfers. This month and last month the money came in my local currency account, even if i’ve requested them to come in my USD account.. Really strange..

That slightly points towards the receiving bank end imho (esp. if you’re certain about having requested the USD account).

I’ve had this happen with BCR for example, although I had both EUR and local currency, no matter what I did, it went through the RON and I had the option to then lose some more money in transfering it back to EUR and moving it to the other account

Perhaps some new EU regulations of which nobody got notified of? (sort of like those nifty ATM fees they introduced for DEPOSITING money, until people started suing them)

• go to the bank and ask them what is the quickest way in terms of intermediary / correspondent bank to get your swift transfers done quickly and CORRECTLY in the RIGHT currency.
• they will give you a bank with a location and a swift code of that bank
• on the next withdrawal create/add a new SWIFT with your old data, BUT FILL IN THE CORESPONDING/INTERMEDIARY BANK this time

I use BRD and they gave me from their central bank in capital city info of some Societe Generale from New York and they SWIFT code, and now I get my transfers done in 12-24h.

We don’t want to loose the currency convertion related value so there you go.
