I've Broken Transferwise

[Shinus73]

Sorry everybody, I've broken Transferwise.

Was 4/5th's of the way through a transaction this morning when the site crashed and it's still down.

I'm sure it wasn't my fault really and thankfully, I hadn't transferred any money when it went down.

Hopefully it will be up soon enough!

It’s a money transfer company that allows you to pay for things in foreign currencies significantly cheaper than doing it via a bank.

Be careful how you fund your account - credit card and debit cards will likely incur fees despite what they say.
Best to pay bank transfer.
I've been stung many times and they blame my bank.

Yes, there’s no benefit to using TransferWise if paying by card. The cost saving comes from saving bank fees on a transfer.
