Hi

1st let me apolgise if this is the wrong forumn for this question.

But the problem i have is that i live in the UK at the moment and have debts in Dubai so at the moment i need to transfer money from the UK direct to person to which the debt is outsanding with. Each tranfers costing Money and lots of it when it all adds up.

So i want to know if there is away i can transfer and exchange form Sterling to AED. Now i know there are some accounts you can get in Dubai as a non resident....But i want to make the process cost free or the smallest of cost for each transfer.

Not sure if any of you guys have done or dealt with anything like this.

Are there Multi currecny accounts you can have in dubai without being a resident. i.e deposit in sterling and withdraw in AED.

Please ask if you need further info.

Thanks in Advance

Do a Western Union transfer instead. You get the money sent to one of the outlets here, tell them which one, they go with ID and pick it up - easy, and I don't think it costs very much either.
