What is the cheapest way to send money from the UK to India?
My wife and I want to send money to her family in India. The Halifax are going to charge £17 per transaction, Western Union is about £14 for the transaction and a foreign bankers draft costs £10. What other options do we have?

Not only is PayPal one of your cheapest options it’s also one of the quickest.
Doing a transfer to an Indian bank from a UK bank where you have no international trading history (or more importantly the person receiving the money has non) can take a long time… maybe weeks for funds to be cleared and released – which true but strikes me as bizarre in this electonic age.
Using PayPal funds can be cleared in a matter of days.
