Hi Mr. Fish er I mean Allan! There are a host of companies that will transfer money online for you. Just do a google (oooh stop it, it hurts me nice!)
"send money online" There's Western Union, PayPal, iKoboo, Moneygram, Bidpay etc. See: - http://www.foreignborn.com/self-help/sending_money_abroad.htm I'm surprised that you can't send an international money order as I can send them to England from Canada but not to France. Yes really. Your bank should also be able to prepare a draft in GBP Sterling but it usually cost more. I have had great success sending cash and registering it.

I've got a mini-problem. I need to send a small amount of money to England. I was going to send an International Money Order (from the U.S. Postal Service). To my chagrin, I found that although almost all countries honor them, they are not valid in the United Kingdom. HUH? Are they STILL mad at us for leaving the empire????? The recipient suggested I just send cash in a letter. I don't really want to do that. The last two times I tried to send cash internationally, it never arrived at the destination. Once to Canada and once to Europe. And I hate "donating" money to greedy strangers. Any suggestions? Even my banker suggested the Int'l Money Order and was surprised to find it wasn't accepted in the U.K. TIA. Allan -- Allan Fish Greenwood, IN [EMAIL PROTECTED]
