IBAN code
 

Faced with such a problem - auction of Britain I want to transfer money to rossbank . Employee of the auction, that 's done it before , on a trip , and the new - says let IBAN number, without him translate. This is the number of the bank and my account in the format of EU banks , required for use within the EU.
Russian banks is absent , te by IBAN transfers in Russia are impossible. A SWIFT in Britain do not use.
One thread faced? how could the problem be solved? Something must be said British bank , but what exactly ?
I want to go to Ross - bank and try to get a printout of the previous translation , all the way there should be described .

You need to find your correspondent account with the Bank of Russia in Europe, where the British transferred the money without any problems and your rossbank already listed them on your account here .

There are at any bank, if you have foreign currency account, not exactly a bank and exchange your bank account.
Just ask your bank your IBAN and SWIFT bank; without Swift, of course, the translation is impossible (that is the "number" of the bank).

When I transfer money from London, asking SWIFT code.

Wladzislaw, Russian banks have NO!
IBAN.
U.S. Banks also no-where they have an internal system routing number.

I came across the Iban and I believe that you have correctly decided to take a printout.

To be precise - ABA routing number.

went and took the printout is SWIFT transfer. Yes, the translation was made in SWIFT and indicate the number of British bank SWIFT .
Why then bookkeeper require IBAN and can not move without it ?
As I understand accountant working in the online banking system and make it all translated . In online banking is no SWIFT SWIFT need to fill out a separate treatment, so try to send an accountant , and answers them - without an IBAN impossible.
Called and explained to them that we should not try to make online payments , should contact the department of international bank transactions . Said try .

Even as a favor, tell klerchonku to stop fooling around and called someone who understands.

Well, sort of sent me money for SWIFT , however, have not yet reached .
At the same time I got , so I sent an annual report on my work , and that what amount sold. The fact that what I see on the site after the auction is not necessarily responsible reality. Customer can make the bid , but not to redeem the work of the work is sold or after the auction.
So, I saw that I was getting a lot less money than you earn . Went to start to understand the VTB 24. After a long and painful search for someone who understands anything in Swift, it turned out that in addition to the commission of sender , with me still taking commissions intermediate banks and the commissions are huge ( for my extremely modest sums ) - like 13 pounds on each intermediate Bank . Total with me all banks transfer removed about 10%of the amount transferred.
That , in my opinion , crazy percentage .
 If I ask them to send me a check, I still found only one bank who cashes Citibank and they take it for at least $ 25 if a check in U.S. dollars . In general, it is also not a gift .
 Does anyone have any thoughts? how to get small amounts in Russia from abroad without paying huge commissions ?
