Bank Wire Fees

5 years ago
Hello. I sent a bank wire from my US bank to pay my assistant in Chile. I paid a $40 US wire transfer fee to my bank.. His bank (Santander) charged him a 14.37% fee to receive the wire. I think there must be some kind of mistake. Is it normal for banks in Chile to charge 14.37% to receive an incoming wire? Or do some banks in Chile charge to receive incoming wires, and other banks not charge? Thank you.
