UAE Exchange is a money transfer service available in many countries worldwide. However, this…read morereview is based on the Handsworth branch in Birmingham. I had never used a money transfer service previously when I first visited UAE Exchange. So when I enquired about the process, the staff were polite and helpful in how they explained the membership and transfer process. I was seen to almost immediately and within minutes I had a UAE Exchange card and had made a transfer! This branch is visited by a lot of Asian people who know little, if any, English. However, they have multilingual staff who I have seen explain their services calmly and patiently, even when the customer can be difficult. The front of the shop is very minimalist and well-maintained with a few counters. There is usually parking on the side road, which is a residential street and can get busy during the school run.

Being originally from Zimbabwe, means I have to know which foreign exchange places to visit in case…read moreI need to transfer money a.s.a.p. I normally use Western Union because that's the best place to send money via if I'm wanting funds to reach Zimbabwe. However, I did try and go to UAE Exchange to see what the service is like at this establishment. After attempting to use their service I found it wasn't really the best place to transfer money to Zimbabwe. I personally think it's best for those wanting to transfer funds to European countries or countries in Asia. You'll tend to find a lot of Asian customers looking to transfer money abroad and I think it's a great place for them to do so. Even though I didn't use their services in the end, I would recommend it to those of you who are looking to transfer money abroad.

Its great if you want to pay over the odds interest on everything, or if you can't get credit but I would use this as a last resort and if you could'nt live without the item. Its a lot of money they charge and a long time to be paying it off. We have been in a mess with this company, so would not recommend.

Another one of the many banks on New Street in Birmingham city centre to have been refurbished over…read morethe past few years - the branch is a pretty decent size and is nicer than most branches of TSB, of which I find to generally have a pretty dire and outdated network of branches dating back to the split of Lloyds Bank and TSB. The opening hours (important in a bank) remain pretty much average working 9-5 Monday through Saturday and of course being closed on a Sunday, making it better than most other banks in the city. There were a decent amount of banking machines which seemed modern enough apart from the fact again that there were separate machines for paying in and withdrawing cash, I personally prefer what other banks including Natwest and B nearby use - one machine for everything which is much quicker especially if you have to withdraw cash from another bank/account and pay it in another - or if you have other banking activities to do at the same time, to avoid awkwardly swapping machines which takes more times especially during peak times. The staff here didn't stand out, there wasn't really anyone greeting or offering to help customers either at the front of the store or in a queue, but the branch is still a pretty modern, cool and spacious one and isn't terrible, in many ways it is better than other banks nearby, but in others it is worse. 3*

Great staff - really helped when I needed a loan fast. They went well out of their way & normal duties to help me out! Much appreciated!! Thumbs up & 5 stars all round!

Santander on Corporation Street by Santander's standards is a fairly cool branch, it opened in July…read more2019 and inside it is pretty large and modern and goes against the typical look, layout and feel of a Santander which I feel is pretty much stuck in the past. Major flaws include the opening hours - during the week they open at 9:30 am and close at 5 pm, This is probably amongst the worst of major banks in the area, with HSBC which is a minute away both opening earlier at 9 am and closing later at 6 pm, Virgin Money which is also nearby goes a step further with hours of 9 am to 6:30 pm, which is a shame. I do also think the store seemed a little understaffed and service was slightly slow around the store. A clean modern bank branch, despite its' flaws and I'm sure it is a warm welcome to Birmingham city centre in its' new location next to Urban Outfitters on Corporation Street, just off New Street and opposite the now-vacated Vodafone unit. 3*
