You will need a friend in the UK to do this for you or go to a bank with locations in both Germany and the UK.  Or, go to an investment banking company who will for a fee do this.

You can open a community account and you will pay reduced fees if you are non profit making for this element of the business.  You should have more than 1 signatory on the account, maybe yourself and any one of 2 others.  You and they can then write cheques and withdrawal slips with the protection a single named account does not have.  Most of the banks and building societies run them, Barclays do a good one and so do Nationwide.  You will need to go in though and not do it online.

Online, I know that etrade.com you can open one online either for brokerage or banking.\nYou do not need to be a citizen to have a banking account in the States. Thanks to off-shore banking rules for foreigners in American.\nDepending where you live, I am pretty sure one of the big banks can help you put money in the US, however that's not an online option.\nStill, you will need to send a passport copy and show that the funds deposit are legal.

The bank should offer a service to transfer direct to her account as well as exchanging to GBP for the transfer. You could check with the receiving bank and compare rates before deciding. It is often cheaper and quicker to use money transfer agencies that are usually in abundance in any financial centre, you could probably find them in the telephone directory. If your wife has a large amount she may be better off holding it in an offshore account rather than in the UK.

no matter what currency..See what your country's currency equals in the UK. Is going to be enought to cover what you want or are u just depleting an account or just transferring money for whatever reason...I would say have the transfer made in UK currency..Otherwise you would have to convert it to use it...let them do it and now you know exactly how much UK money u have..Just a suggestion...Good Luck

Your best bet is to open an account in Europe, with one of the online banks. PayPal recognizes European accounts as well as US accounts.\n\nYou won't be able to obtain a US bank account without either a Social Security number, or a TIN from the IRS.\n\nBut, if you have a friend in the USA who can open an account for you, that would be the simplest way. Send him/her $20 to open an account.

The best savings accounts in UK are definitely from Halifax Banks.\n\nHalifax Banks have alot of services that they can give you for example: \n1. Bank Accounts\n2. Credit Cards\n3. Estate Agency\n4. Holidays \n5. Insurance\n6. Investments\n7. Loans\n8. Mortgages\n9. Savings\n10. Share Dealing\n\nAll these services that the Halifax banks offer are great, besides they help you in your life they can give you alot of money and alot of interest in your savings account.\n\nNumber 9 called Savings: Is an excellent account in which you can open a savings account and if you keep your money in that account for a long time, automatically it will increase your interest rate, for example: If you have  £6,500 in your savings account and if you keep your money there for 6 months your interest rate will increase from 3.5% to 6% and it will be a little bit more of money; But you cannot take out money from your account once you've already made this deal, if you take money out you'll lose your interest. (And you can hardly be able to apply once again.)\n\nI think this one is good because they give you alot of interest, it's secure, it has alot of popularity, all the people have their account in it, and it's a bank in which you can trust 100%.\n\nSo try it! It's an excellent bank that in my opinion, I recommend it for everyone that lives in UK.\n\nI hoped that this answer has helped you in everything. \n\nRegards
