The girlfriend had been remitting money from her Australian bank to her mother's Thai bank at a charge of $30. Her girlfriend told her to use a different method using XWING based in Sydney
We went into Sydney to an Xwing office with her Thai passport, signed up and stating which Thai bank account funds go to. She submitted $500 over the counter, no charges, and the funds were transferred in three hours and at reasonable exchange rate. The GF now has a card detailing which NAB bank account to deposit funds into. She will ring the XWing office quoting her number, amount and her funds are subtracted from NAB big fund account to her mum's account. Xwing have been operating locally for 7 years. The queue at the desk was interesting with 'working' girls and massage girls handing over wads of cash. A few Farangs were also in line and spoke highly of the business.

Re: cheaper way to transfer money Aus to Thailand
Thank you crispernator. the Thai girl network is not keen on paypal and they also use CT transfer and some educational institution as well for fund transfer.
