I am about to move my ssia monies to a uk account. Its not much but its the kids education fund. Heard there is some paypal forex scheme you can use to avoid large forex charges, must find out how that works.

I doubt we will default any time soon but given that we can never ever pay all those loans back I reckon most people now see naked emperors and not fully clothed flights of fancy and soon there will be no deposits left.
 

My experience of paypal is that it has exorbitant spreads on its fx rates - somewhere in the region of 3-4%. I'm sure if you search threads on AAM you will find low cost fx providers.
 

i use transfermate ( they have an office in dublin ) when making a forex
