Foreign currency exchange

When you start up here you will probably have a requirement to transfer money from abroad into your new Danish Krone bank account to get you started.  For this purpose I used XE.  As they are internet-based you get a much, much closer deal to the real exchange rate than your normal bank will ever give you.  I compared HSBC and XE and found I saved over 2% of the total sum being transferred.  Highly significant if you're talking about £1000s of pounds.

I guess the reverse also applies when it's time to go too.
