I agree, there are cheaper options, but with Mukuru I can pay instantly with my credit card so I don't have to walk to the bank at lunch, or anything. Looking at their site, they are also respected by some big media names, BBC, The Economist, The Times - it just makes me feel a bit more comfortable, and if that costs £1 or £2 more than so be it.

Also if you are sending more than £500 you can ask for a better rate. Today for example 26th May 2010 Mukuru rate £-USD = 1.3179 and Chitoro rate was 1.3700 It seems like a no brainer to me. I recommend Chitoro.com for a good deal.

You can call them or go to the website and then the confirmations and vouchers are sent via email and SMS. They also offer an affiliate programme where if you tell your friends and family your number then you can get a discount on the next order. http://www.mukuru.com/zimbabwe They also offer SPAR coupons, petrol vouchers, and online bill payments. My friends use mukuru and haven't had any problems. It was started by people from Zim and seems to offer some of the best rates. Also chitoro is an option, although I haven't used them personally.

I would want to disagree with you there, there are things that you expect from any company that you are going to transfer your money with.

Things like; Reliability of the company, can they be trusted, is your money going to be safe, is your money going to be transfered on time, how easy it is to collect the money. So if you know what you want it’s easy to decide who to send money with.

It’s unfortunate I had to delete your comments because I will not accept spam, comments left just to advertise a company. At least you should have explained how the company is better than the ones we already know.

And above all tell us why people should use it.

But it probably works better for you guys closer to Zim or maybe if you have someone reliable to ship goods with.<br/><br/>I have had problems with people shipping goods to Zim in the past. Now I send money and they cross the border to shop in SA.<br/><br/>Thank you for your contribution..... Hi Sdudhla – With empty shelves it makes sense to send food rather than money.

I have had problems with people shipping goods to Zim in the past. Now I send money and they cross the border to shop in SA.

Thank you for your contribution…..
