Hi

I was looking to send money from the u.k. to japan by express.

It says on the online site that you can send any amount of money but when my brother went into the local branch he was told express delivery had a 3000 pounds limit.

Which is correct?

why not use bank transfer from their online webportal?

Sorry for lack of details.

My brother has an account with the RBOS(I do not). I want my brother to send a large sum of money to my bank in Japan.(I do not have online banking). I was only looking at their online website.

The website says no maximum but my brother was told 3000 limit.

You dont need online banking. Just walk into the bank with the recieving account details.

You have misunderstood my question.

The Royal bank website has a Royworld express transfer as no maximum but my brother was told there was a maximum of 3000 pounds.

Is the website correct or the person in the branch?

What I meant was you can do a transfer from the branch to any account in the world. There is a fee but afaik there are no limits. They will do checks due to money laundering regulations but its far better than using a capped online system.

So as far as you know there are no limits.

Thanks.

Can always walk into a branch and simply ask them. To transfer money you just need the bank identifier and account details. Around 2 years ago, i transferred my friend around 15000 over 3 months as he moved to the US with his wife and left his money with me as he closed his account down. The bank had no issues with it. The first 2 amounts were close to 7k, the rest was in the 3rd transfer.
