Bought £3,000 worth of US dollars
I have used Sterling fx with no problems but this time I ordered 4000USD. I debated whether or not to go for high value or mixed denominations but foolishly selected “mixed” denominations. I received 6 x 100, 1 x 50, 10 x 1, 3 x 10 and 2 x 50 and 160 (IONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY) 20USD notes. Nearly all of the 20 USD were dated 2017 and before. Some were 2004! For those of you who use money exchange when abroad you will know that early dated USD can be a problem to exchange.
I phoned up to complain and was told that was what they had available - really are you telling me they only had 6 x 100 USD notes!!! Also told it was basically there terms and conditions that they can send you anything that they have!! So even if you selected “High denominations” they can send you whatever they have and you have no come back
Shame because I will not use Sterling fx again so they have lost out. Even though it may cost me a few pennies more I will not have to carry 160USD about.

Sold 9,000 US dollars
Sterling offers the best FX rates on the Buy Back market. Despite involvement of the Royal Mail Special Delivery Service, all transactions went smoothly with notifications at every process step. It guarantees a peace of mind. I would truly recommend Sterling FX for converting foreign currencies to pounds.

The service is very quick and customer support is satisfactory. Although worth noting that there is a weird policy around third payments.

Bought £500 worth of Mexican pesos
Overall a really good service! The best rate I could find! Placed order and delivered the next day no problem! Only thing I’d say which was a pain is that they don’t offer it to businesses which is what I needed!! Otherwise I’d have given it a 5*… hopefully you’ll offer it to business soon. Thanks
