sending money to Cambodia
 
I have returned from Cambodia and want to send some money to friends I met there. I did some with Western Union and it cost $11.99 to send $20 so I have to find a better way. Anyone have the right way?

Internet transfer?

Ok so just what is internet transfer and how or where do you transfer it. I had thought about pay pal but do not know if they can get it there or not.

You transfer money from your account to the payees account via your on-line banking site; they then withdraw the money from their account. Simple. No different to paying a bill on-line.

You might want to try Sendmoneyhome.org (hyperlink button doesn't appear
to be working at the moment to you'll have to go there yourself)

It's a govt sponsored site allowing people to compare international
money transfer costs. I used to work on it so can vouch for it. Was
originally designed to to stop migrant workers getting ripped off but
has evolved for the tourist/traveller market.

All i can say is it's totally free and impartial, and if they don't list
a country you want get in touch with them and they either help you
individually or create a new country section for you.

Either way, you'll end up with a service that best suit for your need
whether it's speed, cost etc.

I'm not on commission by the way!...."

I checked this out and it looks good but I could not find Cambodia at all. I sent them a email so hopefully they will have something for me. Thanks. I am just not sure if many people there have bank accounts to transfer it to but I will have to check that out as well. If they did I would think paypal would work as well.
