Beware of the FX rip-off by FinGlobal…

Beware of the FX rip-off by FinGlobal at the end of the
process. FinGlobal may tell you that you will control the
FX transfer from Bidvest Bank to your own bank; but
the reality is that FinGlobal nearly double their fees
through an uncompetitive FX margin for the transfer
which is mandatory. Very scammy behaviour.

A Truly Outstanding Experience with Finglobal!

I can't speak highly enough about my experience with Finglobal. From the moment I reached out to them, I felt like I was in great hands. The entire process was smooth, fast, and completely hassle-free.

What really stood out to me was how quickly they handled my transaction. I was amazed at how fast the money arrived – it really took a load off my shoulders. I also appreciated that there were no upfront payments, which made everything so much easier and stress-free. It felt like they really cared about making the whole process as simple as possible.

Knowing that they are a licensed financial services provider and fully regulated gave me the confidence to trust them completely. They also took every measure to protect my personal and financial details, which made me feel truly secure.

One of the things that really impressed me was the team at Finglobal. Their expertise shines through in everything they do. From the financial planners to the tax specialists, each person I interacted with was knowledgeable, helpful, and genuinely eager to make sure I had everything I needed. They went above and beyond, offering sound advice and ensuring everything was in order, which made the whole process so much easier.

Convenience is also a big win for me. I was able to handle everything remotely without ever having to leave my home. They took care of all the paperwork, making sure everything was ready for me to sign – it couldn’t have been simpler.

Lastly, their competitive exchange rates meant that I got fantastic value for my money. The financial advice they provided was spot on, and I’m so grateful for their guidance.

In short, they earned my trust, and I will definitely be using their services again in the future. The warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail they offer are unmatched. If you’re looking for reliable and efficient cross-border financial services, I can’t recommend them enough.

I highly recommend FinGlobal

I used the services of FinGlobal to get my RA out of South Africa to the UK where I now live, it was a tedious process dealing with SARS and HMRC, however FinGlobal was exceptional, they were professional and fast. They make it as simple and easy as humanly possible. I would recommend FinGlobal any day.

FinGlobal is one fabulous company

FinGlobal is one fabulous company. I was recommended to them by a friend and I’m so glad I took the advice. My father’s estate was unfortunately being handled by Standard Bank, and all the bad reviews one reads about that bank are true. Without the help of the people at FinGlobal, I am convinced that I would have had zero chance of getting my money out of the bank and out of South Africa. Everyone I dealt with at FinGlobal was supportive, professional and efficient. Thank you all

Brilliant

Brilliant, excellent assistance to non resident investors in South Africa for bank accounts and sending funds back home. Can’t fault them. Julian and Cecilia are also very helpful and prompt.

Excellent Support and Highly Recommended

Very happy with their friendly and professional service.
After trying myself for a couple of years to sort out my old policies in SA, after having emigrated more than 20 years ago, I finally decided to involve FinGlobal, which was one of my best decisions ever, after deciding to emigrate of course for a better future. The top team in FinGlobal handled the various bumps on the road without any hassles, as we navigated skilfully the intricacies of the various steps to finally get my policies paid out in Australia. My wife was initially a little sceptic, but also was impressed as the FinGlobal team worked diligently through each step. I was highly impressed with their systems and transparent processes, which added lots of value and confidence to the process. The proof is in the pudding, and after having my funds finally safely in my overseas bank account, I can only look back and say with absolutely honesty, that without the team in FinGlobal, I would still be stuck.
A BIG Thank YOU to all of the team in Hermanus!

Very Dissapointing Service

Over the last year I had to repeatedly resend financial information for financial emigration purposes and whilst the lockdown certainly did not help and I was also slow at times in submitting financial information I found the drive and guidance from Finglobal inadequate to complete the exercise. They have now suddenly advised me that they have to withdraw my application due to incomplete information. This has left me high and dry. I would not recommend Finglobal to anyone, especially if you have a fairly complex financial situation to contend with.
