Masterful knowledge, friendly assistance
From the very beginning of my association with SMART I was not only impressed by their patience and knowledge, but also much admired and welcomed the way in which colleagues saw me through quite complicated matters, especially in the more specific technical/technological issues that, at my age, are not so easily absorbed. Thank you very much. I unreservedly recommend SMART.

The personal service was much appreciated, but the exchange rate didn’t match my usual service provider.
Also there was a technical problem which delayed my transaction going through.

I have never made a currency exchange before & felt completely out of my comfort zone.
From the first communication I was assured the support was there for me. My trader checked in with me throughout the process which I have now completed.
I would not hesitate in recommending smart currency, they were most professional in all aspects.

I have been using Smart Currency…
I have been using Smart Currency Exchange for around 4 years now. With the purchase of a villa back in 2022 and recently this month April 2026 for the sale. This company is outstanding with exceptional staff. Callum Hyams-Parish has been my advisor throughout the whole process. He’s been incredibly processional, fantastic communication, friendly, supportive and a pleasure to do business with. It’s very important that you trust the person you are sending hundreds of thousands of pounds to as it can be quite stressful but Callum has been brilliant. I highly recommend this firm and its advisors.
Thank you for all your help.

Very easy transaction with professional and helpful trader, Rory, who guided me through how to get started. Setting up payment and transfer a doddle even for someone not that conversant with tech. Would happily use whenever needed.

It’s so easy! A quick phone call followed by an email link and a few minutes later the funds were transferred. Cheaper than using my bank and the personal service is very reassuring. I highly recommend and will be using Smart again soon.

Mixed review
I got a good rate, however the transaction was not followed through. My funds were stuck and no one notified me. I had to call up 4 times before my funds were finally released. It was stressful as I also had received an email on Easter Monday to say the funds had not arrived in their account and no one could confirm where they were until the next working day. A large sum coming from abroad had potentially gone astray, unnecessary stress. A good rate, however poor after care.

Hi Bernadette,
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.
We're sorry to hear about the delay to your payment. This is far from typical - we aim to process the onward transfer as soon as possible. Often the same day!
With payments over the Easter break, what usually would have been completed within 1-2 'business' days may have led to a short delay due to the two UK Bank Holidays.
We apologise for the issue you had and hope we can make amends if trusted with your payments in the future.
If you have any further questions, you can reach our team on 020 7898 0541. We operate 8:30am-6pm, Monday to Friday.
