Wouldn’t now go anywhere else
Date of experience: 12 July 2022
I used two of the major international FOREX companies before finding Direct FX. Direct FX service is better than anything I have ever experienced elsewhere in Forex, their response times are swift and they are an NZ company. If that wasn’t a good enough reason to change, their rates are way more competitive than anything I experienced with the “big guys”.
I wouldn’t use anyone else

I have used DFX many times over the last 5 years. I used to shop around for the best rates. I don’t anymore because the DFX rates were better every time. The phone service is fast and easy. The agents are always friendly and explain everything. Turn around/transfer time is prompt. I have been and continue to be a very satisfied customer.
I’ve always found DFX to be a great way…

I’ve always found DFX to be a great way to exchange my finances. Fast efficient service at a great rate. The app gives me all that I need although sometimes the rates shown are a little higher than what is offered. Thats down to changing markets I guess. I’ve used DFX for two and a half years and I will continue to use DFX, it’s the best I’ve found so far.
