Im after a new bank to pay in my $cheques since HSBC have hiked their prices up.
What bank do you use and how much do they charge?

Natwest.. I've got a USD account, cheques cost about $20 + commission.
It's a lot cheaper to do it via Wire, Natwest charge a flat fee of £7 per wire.

I'm with Lloyds TSB and very happy there. Although I wouldn't be able to tell you about costs.

im with halifax, they are pretty slow but its free to receive wires for me, and about £10 to send them i think, cheques are about £7.50-£12.50 to cash in depending on the amount. i dont have a USD account here so cant advise to fees with that
