Anyone have any websites that will allow GBP to Euro transfers to Bitstamp, Lloyds Tsb sting you on conversion rates.

http://transferwise.com/

Or just google 'Fx transfer free' there are hundreds of these sites

Thanks but transferwise wont allow deposits to Bitstamp trying to find one that will allow it.

try http://www.tranzfers.com/ (ok for small amount, but rate not so good)

or http://www.ukforex.co.uk/ (for above £1000, rate much better)

I found this thread whist searching for a cheaper alternative than my bank, so for any future searchers - here's the bad news:

Unfortunately, having completed the sign up process, I've just discovered that ukforex, like Transferwise, won't allow transfers to buy bitcoin due to "their banks not allowing it".

Look's like it's back to the bank after all, unless anyone else has some worthy suggestions please?

       Why would anybody be transferring money into gox right now...?

Why not just buy bitcoins direct from established sellers on e.g. localbitcoins.com?  Prices are good (certainly no more expensive than the transfer and exchange fees you'll pay trying to get money into Gox). Or am I missing something?
