Excellent customer care
Not just another online platform to navigate with no humans to assist you, Smart Currency Exchange responded immediately to my enquiry. I was helped by an experienced professional over the phone, and given advice tailored to my needs and a very competitive exchange rate for my transfer.

It’s so easy
It’s so easy! A quick phone call followed by an email link and a few minutes later the funds were transferred. Cheaper than using my bank and the personal service is very reassuring. I highly recommend and will be using Smart again soon.

Mixed review
I got a good rate, however the transaction was not followed through. My funds were stuck and no one notified me. I had to call up 4 times before my funds were finally released. It was stressful as I also had received an email on Easter Monday to say the funds had not arrived in their account and no one could confirm where they were until the next working day. A large sum coming from abroad had potentially gone astray, unnecessary stress. A good rate, however poor after care.

Hi Bernadette,
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.
We're sorry to hear about the delay to your payment. This is far from typical - we aim to process the onward transfer as soon as possible. Often the same day!
With payments over the Easter break, what usually would have been completed within 1-2 'business' days may have led to a short delay due to the two UK Bank Holidays.
We apologise for the issue you had and hope we can make amends if trusted with your payments in the future.
If you have any further questions, you can reach our team on 020 7898 0541. We operate 8:30am-6pm, Monday to Friday.
Best regards,
The Smart Currency Exchange Team

Straightforward
Quick, efficient and professional.
Only minor issue was that I didn't receive the verification code sent to my mobile so we had to get on a call and arrange for the code to be sent to my email address.
Otherwise, all good and would recommend
