 Re: Dollar-Euro conversions .......try EverBank Thanks for the conversion information. Will check into it. I believe ING Direct (www.ingdirect.es) in Madrid, Spain is offering about 2.5% for euro Orange Accounts. They also have a branch in the US (www.ingdirect.com) and the HQ is in the Netherlands.

| Dollar-Euro conversions I am planning to convert a dollar fund into Euros and am looking for a source of information about the process, with the aim of getting the best exchange rate. I was unable to find an NNTP newsgroup related to this matter but there are probably private ones.. Undoubtedly this process is a minefield and I'm wary. I have seen a claim that up to $1000 can be saved per $100,000 with the right exchange. Comments appreciated. TIA RF |
