USD to EUR: best way??

22 years ago

I'm an expat American living in St. Petersburg Russia My wife and I have recently bought our retrement home in France. I work for an American company and get paid in USD (ouch... but, well, I've been expecting this slump for quite some time!)

Anyway, our little hometown bank has never heard of any currency except USD, so we've been using currency brokers in th UK to buy euros and transfer them to our French bank account to pay the monthly bills . The current weakness of the dollar has caused these folks to up their minimum transaction to $10K. Hmmm.

We need to find a better solution and wonder if any other American exats in France are doing to get euros to pay monthly bills.

Tnx in advance...
