This chart is intended to represent the range of euro outcomes a consumer may achieve on a £50,000 transfer of pounds to euros, inclusive of fees and charges. Comparison data for the high-street banks utilises pricing data provided under licence from FXC Intelligence (www.fxcintel.com), a specialist benchmarking tool, for transactions in March 2024. The Lumon rate is calculated by taking the GBPEUR spot rate from 1 March 2024 from the Bank of England (bankofengland.co.uk) and then applying the median FX cost percentage across 57 spot GBP to EUR transactions with a value in the range of £25,000-£50,000 performed by Lumon Pay Limited and associated Group Companies (Lumon Risk Management Limited, Lumon FX Europe Limited) for personal customers during March 2024.
