I had a problem with the transaction no fault of XE or mine but because the reciever of the funds gave the wrong. XE dealt with my frustrations, my fear of vanishing funds and my impatience, while I was traveling in Morocco without having very good phone or internet, with a professional attitude and being on top of things at all times. I cannot be more pleased by their professionalism.
I sent $1200 US money where they withdraw the money from my account and 20 min later I received and email stating that account was closed for no reason. I will be reporting this company to fraud line in the united states. Avoid headaches such as scam
Currency Trading is the best way in the world. I like this.
I would highly recommend XE to anyone looking to transfer money to South Africa. The only reason I didnt give it 5 stars is due to the difficulty tracing a wire through its intermediary bank to determine what the fee that the intermediary bank charges before the funds come. I wire money to Johannesburg on a monthly basis and unfortunately XE has not been able to trace to funds to determine the fee. As a result, I never know the exact amount that will hit my account in SA and my bank typically sits on the funds for a while before depositing it. When I call the bank to inquire, the amount I provide to them doesnt actually match the amount that they receive so it is difficult for them to locate. It's usually short a dollar or two. Although I've had the same experience with other places I've used. Other than that. They are always friendly and usually give me the best exchange rate on Rand.

In 1993, two friends fresh out of university joined forces to start a company. Steven Dengler and Beric Farmer started out from a basement office, offering computer consulting and internet services. A couple of years later, the duo introduced a demo currency converter to show clients how interactive the internet could be. As the years passed, it was clear that they were running the web’s dominant currency tool and started to focus on XE’s currency services. With years of hard work, Steven, Beric, and the XE team cultivated this tool into the world’s largest currency brand - XE.
