Hey nomads,

So i’ve bit the bullet and decided to settle down in the country i’ve been working in. I’m looking to buy a home and need to move my money from the UK. I’ve been currently using Wise for the last 4-5 years and have not had any problems but i’ve only transferred like 10k gbp max but i’ve read the horror stories of wise blocking accounts and having money stuck for months. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    i did the same with wise and it worked eventually. wise support is hell, because every time you call them, a different person picks up the call and you have to explain everything again.

    however - if you have proof of income and everything, they cannot deny your request.

    of course this also depends on the destination country. i called the central bank in the end to get more detailed information that wise gave me. then i passed this to wise and everything worked out.
