Mr Good Provider. Grunt.

Finally convinced redcountess that thrashing herself to exhaustion working thirty hours a week at T*l*t*ch is actually a BAD idea with all the shit she has to get organised, and that her enormous Australian wage is actually about 2p. (Well, £450 a month after tax. That is, a quarter of my wage after tax.)

So, I'm yet again after good ways to get money to Australia that aren't MoneyGrams. Specifics if possible - things you've actually done, what it cost and whether the exchange rate was ruinous.

Update: Yeah, banks, including mine, apparently do just the thing I need. Will enquire forthwith.

Why don't you just both get PayPal accounts? They don't let you send "quasi-cash" overseas, but you can transfer money in exchange for services. I've done this before, and for the service just typed in something cheesy like "your undying love". =)

Because this is for actually sending actual cash for living off to Australia.
