OFX - Canada Reviews 130

OFX is all about the service and frankly, living on a boat in French Polynesia, they've made working with vendors so easy I consider them a lifeline. I worked with Conor today and he was incredibly helpful, explaining the eccentricities of how French Polynesian IBANs work and inputting all of the information so that I could make a transfer for a much-needed purchase. Connectivity here is an issue so his extra help is much appreciated. OFX is a lifesaver for traveling expats, and I imagine, everyone who uses this valuable service.

Consistently incompetent. Unbelievable delays, zero ability to see incoming funds of current balance. Lost funds, missed transfers, duplicate transfers... how did this company manage to pass financial accreditation? Run, don't walk, from this company.

I recently had the pleasure of using OFX for an International money transfer,here's why I'm giving them a perfect Rating.

I highly recommend their Services.

Set up a $2000 transfer from Canadian account to US account to cover some expenses. Received confirmation and timeline of delivery. The next day receive an email that the transfer was cancelled because they could not reach me. They have all my information on file and no message or phone call where receive. Disappointing to say the least.

Conor Dunleavy was excellent to work with. He communicated very well and executed the exchange very well.

We booked a transaction and asked them to ensure they used the debt instead of wire transfer . We had this done in December with no issues but the person who booked the transfer for some reason used the wire transfer routing number so the money was rejected. This mean we couldn’t meet a payment deadline. Not happy when I phoned the answer was I don’t know why it was done that way

smooth, seamless transfer.

I had wonderful customer service and assistance with Conor D. - it gave me confidence in using OFX. I was comparing currency transfer companies for ongoing future transfers and surprised at how difficult it was getting the runaround/obfuscating from other companies on basic questions regarding fees and rate markups. Conor was helpful, knowledgeable and personable and OFX was very transparent. Conor went through all my questions in detail and helped me get my account set up efficiently. The customer service I received from Conor gave me the assurance to use OFX over other companies I had considered.

Today I was setting up an account with the help of Nelly, from Toronto. I am a Senior (82) with less than stellar competency on computers. However, she was very knowledgeable and walked me through the steps with patience. What a wonderful customer care representative!!

Conor Dunleave did a great job! Very responsive to all my questions an a great help with transferring my money at a good rate into my bank account in the Netherlands for purchasing a house.

The transfer of $US to a US bank has not been completed despite me making 4 different calls to customer service.
My previous experience with OFX and its predecessor has been very good.

I received a couple of different suggestions as to why my funds didn’t go through. One was that I needed a Swft Code , which was incorrect and the other was that my transit code was incorrect. The latter was correct and I praise the rep for correcting that for me. This rep that indicated that I have a Swift code, I think needed to investigate my issue more . .

Worse company ever!!! I am so frustrated with the them. One month after I had completed a big transfer with them in 2022, they phoned and asked me for proof of funds, which I had already provided, which is why they approved my transfer in the first place. I was suspicious of this strange request and asked them to send me an email to this fact. They never did. Fast forward to 2023, I wanted to do another transfer and they blocked my account and a customer rep sent me an email this time asking for listing the list of documents from 2022. I immediately complied and sent all the documents he listed in his email to me. I just called to follow up on the status of my account and to my frustration they need another list of documents, which is not logical! I find then inefficient given that if I had missing documents why did they approve the transfer in 2022, then ask me for additional documents a month later. Why now ask for additional documents after I just sent all the documents requested 2 days ago!!! I have no problem providing requested documents, but they have to be relevant!!! Why do they need a 3 month bank statement, pay stub proof, etc... I am not applying for mortgage???? Soooo frustrating and a waste of my time!!! Be clear about what you want from the beginning, stop giving people the run around!!

Good rates, helpful, fast transactions. Can't ask for more. Tanks OFX

Many thanks could not have been easier. 3 minute call, everything setup & transfer UK to Canada completed within the day.

The team at OFX, and particularly our account manager Sonam Khedup, have been stellar. The speed at which Sonam works and attention to our account is, and always has been, phenomenal. We have used OFX for over 5 years now. Sonam is proactive in providing heads-up to us when necessary and quite often picks up the phone to speak with us, then follows through with a confirmation email on actions taken. We fully trust and recommend the very high level of expertise and professionalism of Sonam and the OFX group.

My very first experience working with OFX was fantastic! I have never dealt with money transfers of any sorts and I had the perfect guide, Noel Fraser, help me through everything I needed. He was patient and kind even after I messed up on my first attempted transfer. Great customer service is hard to come by these days but I sure had it with Noel. I look forward to working with him and OFX in the future!

Sending money to Europe made simple!
When building a new home in Italy, while living in Canada, OFX has been invaluable not only in getting the best exchange rates, but also in sending funds to a wide variety of businesses and contractors. I would recommend OFX wholeheartedly as their online platform is easy to use.

Noel was very helpful and made the process very easy.

Great customer service! Noel Fraser was very helpful. He ensured I had the best experience while transferring my money, something that can quickly become frustrating when you don't know how to do it. I am very thankful for his kind guidance.
