A friend of mine accepted an offer for their flat in Spain on impulse.
The buyer paid in full by cheque which has been deposited in my friend's Spanish account. All of the legalities have also been sorted.
They returned home to the UK with 10k of Euros in 500 denomination notes. They have found these difficult to convert into Sterling due to fears over money laudering and/or counterfeiting.
The issue they now have is transferring in excess of 100,000 Euros back to the UK.
Does anyone have experience of this? What is the most cost effective method?
