  As for wire transfer costs, with the new IBAN system there should NOT BE ANY COSTS when the transfer is made between two banks within the European Community. If there is an option, you should select 'share both costs' as that will put you into the 'EUR 0.00 charge'. Sometimes if you select 'charge all costs to sender' (or receiver), they do charge outrageous costs. This is plain wrong as all transactions should be charged at the same cost as a national transfer, as per 01-06-2003. You should complain if they do.

  Be careful not to use the old SWIFT system as that is fairly expensive. As well, note that Greek banks are notorius to charge costs at the expense of customers... For example, Eurobank charges EUR 5 for outgoing transfers and EUR 3 for incoming ones...

  If you have any questions, please read the information at:

  • MEMO/03/140
    
  
  Do not send us cheques as we cannot cash them without getting charged EUR 20 in costs.
  Payment should be made within 30 days after the invoice date.
