Does anyone have any tips on how to pay Dr P? Did you transfer money using a foreign exchange company or take cash or use a credit card? With the interest rate going down (booo) just thinking about what to do before we travel in a couple of months. Thanks helpful mummies.
I always use OzForex to pay. Gives a better exchange rate than the banks.
Thanks WAD. Do you just pay the money into HRC's bank account and how far in advance do you need to organise the transfer?
Yes, you set up an OzForex account and then get HRC details (account no. swift code etc.) and you buy the money from OzForex and they pay HRC. Dead easy once it's set up. You can watch the rate for a few days/week and try to pick a day/time when it's up a bit...
Given our dollar is dropping fast, I would recommend paying sooner rather than later. I am doing a FET in oct and am going to pay now. They are predicting our dollar will only be US65c by December. :(
Sorry forgot to say it takes about 3-4 working days for them to receive the money.
Oh my really it's going to drop that low [emoji16] I think this is getting out of my price range [emoji20]

does anyone know if they will take cash?. we had some aussie dollar changed earlier in the year, and hopefully they will. we are planing to go over mid aug. this year.
If i may ask those who have been over to hrc, which hotel they stayed in and which place to hire the car?
thank you in advance
They normally require payment before you begin meds. If you are doing the whole cycle there you could pay in cash but that's ALOT of cash to be carrying.
Hrc have a list of hotels that they have an arrangement with for discounts. Look on their website under out of town patients then contact the hotel directly.
Can't remember who we hired a car through. I think I just web shopped around for the best deal.
thankyou: wanting a daughter for your reply. yes it is alot, but we changed the money in anticipation that our aussie dollar will decline.
Thank you very much. I'm buying the money now!! I wish I had done it a year or so ago when it was on parity.
