XETrade.com. Any experiences?
 
I've signed up for an xetrade.com account for foreign currency exchange and sending funds in Euro to apartment landlords.

xetrade.com gets very little discussion here on Fodors. Only a few posters ever discuss it all.

I'd appreciate any feedback from those that have used xetrade.com. Good, bad, or otherwise.

I have an account with XETrade and used it to pay deposit in euro, albeit from UK. It worked well and there was no hassle. The exchange rate was around 2% worse than interbank rate, and there was a further fee for trasmitting the money to the recipient's bank account (around £8), but it's cheaper than using banker's or money order and quicker.

I have their sire bookmarked. My only experience with them is using their online calculator for currency conversion. Very accurate and thorough.
