How to Send Money to China From the UK

If you are living in the United Kingdom and have family or relatives still living in China, you may find it necessary to send back some money to them. Instead of mailing a check or cash (which is not safe), electronically transfer money from your bank account to their account. But you will generally be charged a fee to perform the transfer.
