Dr Richard Buller, recently emigrated to Melbourne, Australia

"Please pass on my thanks to you and the team at Halo for a professional and efficient service. Please be assured that I will come back to Halo Financial next year."

G Mylchrest, recently emigrated to Australia

"Many thanks for the full support of Halo Financial throughout the initiation of the trading facility and the final transactions. Special thanks to Alastair who dealt with the whole deal. He was pleasant and personable during our regular conversations and he made me feel more than just another customer. My sister’s recommendation to use Halo and in particular Alastair was absolutely spot on. Please pass on my thanks and feedback to those managers who encourage their staff to support customers in this way."

Wayne Sherratt, recently sold his property in Spain

"You provided a quick & efficient way of doing this transaction and, with the assistance of your team, it was also pretty straightforward. Many thanks."

M Bhatt, owner of a new overseas property in Canada

"Thank you very much for the time you took to explain your services. Exchanging a large sum of money certainly felt a very 'risky' thing to do but you and your colleagues were always very reassuring.
Hope all is well with you and the Halo Financial team and thank you again."

Donna Quigley, recently purchased a property in Ireland

"Just a quick note to thank you. I will definitely recommend this service as there are plenty of people who don't realise this excellent service exists."

Tonia Yiannakis, recently bought a property in Bulgaria

"I have been very happy with the service offered by Halo Financial and look forward to doing further business in the future."

Sarah Washington, owner of a new home in Germany

"I approached Halo Financial to help me transfer funds to Brazil for a land purchase. I found them to be extremely knowledgeable  and very supportive. The land purchase was a long drawn out process due to problems at the Brazil end of the purchase.  But Halo helped me keep a calm head and gave me good advice and I completed the purchase of my land in December 2006."

Louise Ishani, recently bought land in Brazil

"We first met Halo Financial over the two years that it took to get our visa, they contacted us regularly with financial news, keeping us up-to-date with how the Aussie dollar was doing against the pound. When we finally got our visas and made the comparisons between Halo Financial and other financial companies, we found them to be very professional, knowledgeable and more importantly they offered the most competitive rates. They were a pleasure to deal with and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them."

Leona Bowles, recently emigrated to Australia

"Thanks very much for playing your part in making the whole process of buying property overseas very smooth indeed.  We will certainly recommend you, as a friend recommended you to us."

Graham & Fiona Hughes, owner of a new home in France

"The service you have provided has been professional and more importantly personalised to suit our needs and for that we thank you."

Trevor & Colette Stunell, recently emigrated to Canada

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank your company for all the help you have given me over the past 12 months in completing the first stage of my property purchase in Australia. I was assigned my own personal adviser who I feel has, over the months we have been in contact, become more of a friend. She has given me so much help over the past months, I was really struggling to find out how to get my funds in place to buy my property and how to get the best possible conversion rates. I was given so much advice, I was such a novice to the money market, I had plain English explanations that even I could understand !  I am so glad that I made that initial phone call, it has saved me thousands of pounds, thank you so much."

Lesley Speakman, overseas property investor, Australia

"Thank you so much for the great service you provide. From the very first phone contact with Alex, who was very courteous, professional and personable, on through the final follow-up e-mail confirming the transaction, your company was head and shoulders above any bank or financial service I have ever used before. In addition to the great customer service, you saved me over $8,000 in what my banks would have charged me for the same transaction, even when I factor in the wire and transaction fees you charged. I had negotiated with my US bank and my European bank to get as low a rate as possible when converting USD to Euro. They still had rates 4% higher than yours. I have been working and travelling and transacting business between Europe and the USA and never had such a positive experience. I had even tried one of your competitors, and they were no where close as far as service and cost. Now I can use my money where it was intended, for my business and financial transactions, not to the banks. I cannot thank you enough. Also, I hope Alex is well compensated for her work, since she is the first line contact and makes a very strong and professional presentation."

Bob Umlauf, owner of a new home in Munich, Germany

"Just a quick note to thank you for your kind treatment with regards to my overseas purchase. Unlike some of your competitors, your staff helped me whereever they could, instead of putting up barriers as did some of your competitors. I will use Halo for all of my overseas finance requirements."

Lynne Pope, in the process of buying a property in France

"Somewhat more efficient than my bank!"

Linda Harpham, owner of a new home overseas in Spain

"We were faced with an investment opportunity which meant getting funds back quickly to New Zealand. In the past these transactions have been executed with one of the largest UK Banks. We found Halo Financials customer experience was over delivered from an ease of account set-up, exchange rate, fees and time for funds to clear in New Zealand perspective. We will be definitely using their services again....bring on $3 to the Pound!"

Stuart MacIntyre, owner of a new home overseas in North Island, NZ

"The process from start to finish was simple and, more importantly, Halo did everything they said they would and in the predicted timescale and it is also comforting to speak with a dedicated person who has responsibility for your account - Customer Service as it should be!"

Ian Kingsbury, makes regular USD currency transfers

"Thanks for your help - compared to HSBC it's so much easier and much better value for money."

Megan MacIntyre, owner of a new home overseas in North Island, NZ

"May I take this opportunity to thank both you and your company for the efficient and professional way you handled my account upon my recent move to Tasmania. I moved two large amounts of money, one through my bank and one with yourselves to explore the most efficient way of transferring money, not only did I get a better exchange rate from your company it reached me four days faster than money transferred by my bank. I shall have another transfer to make in the near future and you will be my first point of contact."

Brian Smith, recently emigrated to Tasmania, Australia

"As a self-confessed foreign exchange novice, I was unsure of what to expect. Within 5 minutes of speaking with Sophie any concerns I had were put to rest. Please pass on my thanks to Sophie and I wish you all the best for the future. Keep up the good work."

Mr Worth, owner of a new home overseas in France

"I would just like to take this opportunity to say thank you to the staff of Halo Financial for a job very well done. My husband and I are in the process of migrating to Canada and Sophie and Sam have both been gems in getting our funds across there for us to buy our new home. Sophie has been very informative with regards to the fluctuations that the Canadian Dollar has been experiencing and managed to minimize our losses with the drops that the Dollar has taken over the last few months. I would highly recommend using Halo Financial over any bank as the facilities offered are so much more flexible and the staff deal with you on a one-to-one basis and really do get to know you over time and turn out to be more than a financial advisor."

Nicole Glentworth (BSc, MLIS), in the process of emigrating to Canada.

"I had no idea how expensive it could be to get the currency side of my property wrong. Thankfully my dealer was very thorough and very patient with me despite my naive questions. I will recommend your company to everyone who asks."

Mrs Hillyard, owner of a new home overseas in France

"Great service, great people, great rates."

Mr Richardson, recently emigrated to Australia

"I didn't know anything at all about exchange rates and markets, but thought my bank wanted to charge me way too much when buying a property abroad. I was recommended to Halo Financial by someone who had already bought abroad. In clear, plain English, Halo explained how the markets worked and what they could do. I was both reassured and impressed. They even sent me regular financial updates in an eminently readable and understandable format. I highly recommend them."

Nicola Walker, recently bought a home overseas in Greece

"Thank you very much for your prompt and very professional service when speed was of the utmost. I will certainly use you again when I have to transfer money."

Beryl McGibbon, owner of a new home overseas in Spain

"Your assistance in helping me buy my currency at the right time saved me enough money to buy some furniture for our new house here in New Zealand. Thanks for all your help."

Sean Winterbottom, recently emigrated to New Zealand

"I recently used the services of Halo Financial to transfer funds from New Zealand to Hungary and was extremely pleased by the conversion rates Halo achieved and the follow up service. The whole process was dealt with very efficiently and I would recommend their services to anyone."

Hamish White, Associate Director, Colliers International, Hungary & Slovakia

"Many thanks for your help over the last couple of days, really appreciated it. I guess it shows that us visiting the Emigration Show (and yourselves having a stand) really pays dividends, as we felt more comfortable doing business with yourselves than perhaps some of the competition we met."

Steve and Mary Dalton, in the process of migrating to Western Australia

"When I needed to send some funds to New Zealand to repay the mortgage, Halo Financial gave me a far better exchange rate than the bank and saved me loads. The process was hassle free and the money arrived in NZ the next day."
