Guys,

Is there a way of transferring money to an international bank account and get someone local to authorise the transfer if the conditions have been met.

i,e when buying something substantial such as a car. Could the money be transferred to the sellers bank account but only authorised when someone (friend) goes to the bank and okays it.. ??

any thoughts??

Which country?

You can do a LC -- Letter of credit through the bank.

England would be the country...

Its just a safe way of transferring large sums of cash i was thinking..

Any more info to this Mao??

Best bet is for the friend to OK the car, then do an IMT, international Money Transfer, depending on which Bank, and their relationship between your Bank, and any Banks in between can take 24hrs, to a week if there are poor relations.

Fred more info??

paypal are fked took me 4 months to get my money back and i had to jump through hoops to get it...

i wouldnt trust them with such a large sum of money....


yes but when money is sent then i cant get it back.. but if i can do it an alternative way that the third party can receive the car or make sure its sent then this would be a safe alternative..

PayPay might be your cheapest-easiest option provided they have an account which links their e-mail address to an account it's pretty much instant, it's the only way I could send money to a friend in China without mass complications. You just send the money to their email account and they transfer it to their bank account, possibly protected too, I'd phone them to check first obviously but on the couple of times I've called them from both here & o/s they have been really helpful.

How good friend are we talking ? Trust enough to transfer the money to him, if all ok with car, he hands over the cash to person selling car and friend takes ownership of car and makes sure shipping is organised ie he does it ?

Western Union.. the safest way to transfer money to Nigerians over the internet.

Arrange for seller to get bank account with SWIFT code. SWIFT for Banks

Get mate to check car - all good. Transfer funds to account.

We transfer funds using SWIFT and not an issue yet.
