Great team at five west, they respond promptly, I use the Arbitrage service, they are very transparent and professional, I deal with Chrissie majority of the time, Chrissies service is excellent, Chrissie responds swiftly. The Arbitrage service offered is very profitable and streamlined.
Would recommend fivewest with a smile on my face to anyone.
I do my "arbitrage" every year with Five West. Their team is very patient and supportive and clearly "knows their stuff". This is very comforting when you don't come from a finance background.
The team are fantastic, the are quick to respond, get things done and i have made money. I am extremely happy with Five West
FiveWest seem to be on top of compliance and regulation. This is very comforting in this wild west of an industry. FiveWest have efficient systems and very friendly staff. I can definitely recommend them.
Used Fivewest's USD forex service to send money from the US to my Standard Bank account. I first tested the service with just $10 and didn't get hit with any fees and got the rate they quoted which is amazing compared to SBSA.
