[Healeys] Ordering from Denis Welch

[Robert Begani]

I ordered my tires from Longstone a 2 months ago and could pay in Pounds or
Dollars on my Mastercard credit card.  The dollars was the best price and
the shipping was free. Delivered by HRH Post quickly.  Maybe their financial
relationship is with a bank that will not do business in Euros.  Very
strange in this day and age.  I would think they would welcome business from
the EU eventhough the UK is leaving.

I ordered a head and related parts from Welch.  After a few weeks backorder
they notified me yesterday that the shipment is ready.
I had thought I could pay with VISA, in fact I called VISA and they said it
would be fine and there should be no charge for currency conversion.
But now Welch says they cannot accept my VISA, rather I must make a direct
bank transfer to their "HSBC Bank" and it must be in Pound Sterling!
I checked with two local banks and they said online banking cannot send
anything other than US Dollars -- my only option is Western Union
and this would cost an additional $520!    Surely there is a better way --
those on the list that have ordered from Welch recently, can you share with
me how you sent payment?
     Thanks -- Chappy rice  BN2
