Lumon helps Alan purchase a home abroad and make ongoing transfers

/

The challenge


Alan is a retired record label owner from the UK who, having finished his career, decided to move across the Channel for an idyllic life in South-West France. To realise his dream, Alan needed to transfer funds from the UK to France to purchase his property in Lot et Garonne in the Aquitaine region.

The solution


Following an introduction in 2009 by his French estate agent, Alan used Lumon’s personal service to transfer the funds for his property purchase. With the tailored support from his currency specialist he was able to send his money on time and at a competitive exchange rate.

The result

Impressed with the support his dedicated account manager provided throughout his property purchase in France, Alan continues to use Lumon to pay bills there and make regular pension transfers from the UK.

“Having a dedicated account manager is wonderful. It feels like I’m talking to a friend, but a professional one. My currency broker, Daniel, is friendly, knowledgeable and everything happens exactly as he says it will – he’s never let me down.”

Lumon’s personal service is underpinned by the support you’ll receive from your account manager. This dedicated professional understands that timing is crucial when making international payments – especially when buying property overseas. They will use their knowledge and understanding of currency markets to provide invaluable insight that will help safeguard your buying budget and ongoing payments from fluctuating exchange rates.
