Dear Sir,
Greetings to you in the most loveable name on earth and in heaven, Christ Jesus.
Thank you for your prompt response and the content well noted.
Sequel to your questions: I have to answer you as follows: Firstly, I apologies if this e-mail appears formal but you need to keep business apart from other considerations because it is your fund.
I hope that one of the reasons that HSBC chose to work with me was because I am correct. I think their choice was a good one. I have worked for, with, and advised banks with special attention to international payments. The officer at your Bank seems not to be aware of his own banks' instructions and
regulations with regard to 'wire transfers that
involve your $10.5M USD'.
Wire transfers, indeed all transfers, are charged at a flat fee, either to the account holder or the beneficiary. This flat fee varies among the banks, but is normally in the range of $45 to $50. (With HSBC bank it is only 00.1% only) It can be, and often is, there always, at the discretion of the head of department. It is most definitely is based on a percentage of the transfer! And any bank not doing so would find them in front of the Banking Ombudsman for excessive charging. Moreover NO bank will ever not ask for any fees to be paid in advance. Nor can it be claimed for the exchange into Pounds since that is done interbank, at a rate which more than compensates both sides for the real cost of exchange.
So, who is the beneficiary of this 0.01% ($450) 'Cost of Transfer Fee’? YOU are the One, And I guarantee that, once you paid this ($450) 'Cost of Transfer Fee’, the
wire transfer will be made immediately is just a push of button? If it is to provide a small commission or incentive to someone within the bank, so what, I do not have any problem with that. Any person who helps to 'oil the wheels' deserves to be paid for his services. I guarantee I shall be justly rewarded, when the funds are received in your stated account. .
I am sure that with your experience you will be well aware of these matters, but I felt bound by my duty to you, under our agreement, to clarify you so that you can be sure of your ground.
Sincerely,
David Smith
